About the Journal

Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology is a interdisciplinary journal dedicated to advancing knowledge across a broad spectrum of applied sciences and technologies. The journal aims to publish cutting-edge research that bridges the gap between theoretical developments and practical applications, providing a platform for innovations that drive societal progress and address global challenges.

The scope of the journal encompasses a wide range of fields, including but not limited to:

  • Applied Sciences: Research in areas like biotechnology, environmental sciences, chemistry, and physics, with a focus on technological advancements that can be applied to real-world problems.
  • Applied Social Sciences: The journal also highlights the intersection of science and society, particularly research in the applied fields of sociology, psychology, economics, education, and political science. Studies in this area focus on the role of social sciences in technological adoption, human behavior in technological contexts, policy-making, and the broader societal impact of scientific and technological advancements.
  • Engineering and Technology: Exploring innovative applications in engineering disciplines, such as civil, mechanical, electrical, and software engineering, with an emphasis on practical solutions for contemporary challenges.
  • Interdisciplinary Research: We encourage interdisciplinary studies that integrate the natural and social sciences, addressing complex societal issues such as sustainability, public health, urban development, and technology's role in modern governance.

The journal’s mission is to contribute to the global dialogue between technology, society, and human development by publishing high-quality, peer-reviewed articles that explore how applied science and technology can lead to tangible improvements in various aspects of human life.

The journal is published  online versions. The online version is free to access and download. The journal accepts article submissions online or by e-mail: editor@learning-gate.com.
