Author Guidelines

How to submit your manuscript?

All manuscripts should be submitted to the journal by the online submission system (https://journal.unnes.ac.id/sju/index.php/JPHI/index). Submissions can be made by single or multiple authors. Once submitted, the author can track the submission and communicate with the editors via the online journal management system. Articles can be submitted at any time throughout the year. However, as we publish in themes, it is advisable to consider the forthcoming topic as phrased in the call for papers before submitting (see our homepage announcement). If you do submit a work that does not fit within the current theme, we will keep your article on file to consider at a later stage.
