International Journal of Electrical Energy and Control Systems (IJEECOS) supports researchers who want to publish journal articles derived from their M.Tech/M.E/M.S/PhD thesis or dissertation.

Important: IJEECOS does not publish the full thesis as a journal article.
Instead, authors should prepare a research paper based on one strong part (chapter) of the thesis.

What We Accept

We accept:

Original research articles developed from thesis work

Review articles based on thesis literature review (if rewritten as a journal review paper)

Case studies/technical notes derived from thesis experiments or simulations

The manuscript must fit within the journal scope:
Electrical Engineering, Energy Systems, Power & Renewable Energy, Power Electronics, Drives, EV/Charging, and Control Systems.

How to Convert a Thesis into a Journal Paper (Simple Steps)

Step 1: Select One Strong Chapter

• Choose one focused topic such as:
• Control algorithm design and results
• Microgrid/renewable optimization results
• Battery/EV charging analysis
• Converter or machine drive performance study
• Smart grid/protection/power quality study

Step 2: Rewrite in Journal Format

• Your paper should contain:
• Title
• Abstract + Keywords
• Introduction (short and focused)
• Methodology / Model / System Description
• Results and Discussion
• Conclusion and Future Work
• References (IEEE style recommended)
• Step 3: Reduce Thesis-Style Content
• Avoid:
• very long background chapters
• repeated explanations
• full thesis tables/appendices
• Focus more on:
• methods + results + contribution + comparison
• Thesis Repository and Similarity Policy
• If your thesis is available online (university repository), it may appear in similarity checks. This is normal.
• To ensure ethical publication:
• Write the manuscript as a new, improved journal article (not copy–paste).
• Cite the thesis where required (if publicly available).
• Keep overlap minimal and ensure substantial new writing and presentation.
• Authorship and Permissions
• Only real contributors should be included as authors.
• If your thesis includes work done in a lab/group, ensure you have permission and include proper acknowledgements.
• If any thesis content includes copyrighted figures, obtain permission or redraw the figures.
• Peer Review Applies Normally
• All thesis-derived submissions undergo the same journal process:
• Single-blind peer review
• Usually 2 reviewers
• Decision: Accept / Minor Revision / Major Revision / Reject
• What to Mention During Submission (Mandatory)
• When submitting, please include a note:
• “This manuscript is derived from my thesis/dissertation titled: __ (University, Year).”
• Mention whether the thesis is online (Yes/No) and provide a link if applicable.
• Subject line format:
  Thesis-based Submission – IJEECOS – [Manuscript Title]

APC Policy

No APC until 31 December 2026
From 1 January 2027: USD 200 APC per accepted article
No submission fee. APC is charged only after acceptance.
