Vol. 10 No. 1 (2024): Revista Ifes Ciência

The Ifes Science Magazine (RIC), since 2022, has been managed by the editor-in-chief, Prof. Dr. Wanderson Romão. As the main change in the Magazine for the year 2023, the Editor-in-Chief highlights the division of its major areas from four to six. They are: Engineering, Humanities and Applied Social Sciences; Linguistic Sciences, Letters and Arts; Agricultural Sciences and Environment; Biological Sciences and Health; and Exact and Earth Sciences. Furthermore, in most cases, the number of editor-in-chief for each area is now made up of two professionals, whereas the 2023 editorial team is made up of ten professionals. RIC also began accepting articles that can now be classified as review articles, technical notes and original articles. The submission guidelines for these articles can be found in the instructions for authors on the journal's website. The evolution of publications over the years shows that in 2023, 61 articles were published, almost half of which (29 articles) were produced by authors external to Ifes. Another relevant information is the excellent participation of Ifes researchers from the interior region, corresponding to almost 30% of the magazine's entire annual publication. RIC has sought to maintain a flow of publications of articles by researchers who belong to IFES and researchers who do not, so that this ratio is around 50%. Therefore, this number has been reached and maintained between 2022 and 2023.
