After more than 15 months of rigorous appraisal, evaluation, and review, the English-language Journal of Economics and Development (JED) of National Economics University (NEU) was officially included in the Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) on August 27, 2024. The index is part of Web of Science.

Web of Science is Clarivate’s internationally trusted and respected scientific database. To be indexed in Web of Science, journals must pass three rounds of rigorous evaluation and selection against 24 quality criteria covering the following aspects: the international diversity of the editorial board and authors, language and presentation, the quality and scholarly contributions of published articles, the extent and relevance of citations, peer review quality, the journal’s disclosure policies, compliance with research community principles, and other aspects.

Prof. Dr. Pham Hong Chuong, President of NEU, stated: “JED’s inclusion in Web of Science marks another major step forward, following its inclusion in Scopus in 2023. This affirms JED’s academic standing and contributes to implementing National Economics University’s development strategy to become a university with a global academic reputation. This milestone reflects the results of sustained efforts and strong aspirations for internationalization by successive generations of NEU leaders and its teaching community, successive generations of JED leaders and staff, and the enthusiastic contributions and support of editorial board members, peer reviewers, and a network of domestic and international scholars”. JED’s inclusion in Web of Science will also help raise the visibility of Vietnam’s scientific knowledge and disseminate it within the international academic community.
