Reputable international journals are journals that meet the criteria of international journals with additional criteria indexed by international databases. Indexation is the process of registering journals with reputable indexing institutions. Journal indexation on DOAJ and Scopus is one of the targets in efforts to improve UGM’s reputation at the international level.
