The 2017–2020 Development Strategy of
the Polytechnic defines 2 important objectives: 3. Improving the
institution's publishing activity, publication of employees' scientific papers,
participation in scientific projects and hosting scientific conferences and 4.
Publication of professional papers and teaching publications, participation in
professional conferences and hosting professional conferences. In
accordance with the strategic objectives, the Polytechnic promotes publication
of scientific/professional papers and other publications providing each teacher
an annual fund for informal development and publishing opportunities in
compliance with the rules and conditions of the Rules on
publishing activity. This is also apparent in the last five years because we
have published four scientific monographs as results of research by authors in
doctoral theses and 15 teaching
materials (textbooks, notes, manuals, exercise books and
authorised lectures) were published in hard copy or electronic format. In order
to demonstrate professional and scientific productivity of the institution, in
addition to own publishing activity, according to a Dean's decision, each
teacher is required to register own publications in the Croatian Scientific
Bibliography – CROSBI database after publication of a work or a
scientific/professional paper.
In accordance with the
current analysis the number of papers published by the teachers and
associates in the past 5 years in scientific journals and proceedings indexed
in the Web of Science (Core Collection) and Scopus databases is 42. The total number
of references is 113 (WoSCC) and
53 (Scopus)
while the total h-index of the institution is 6 (WoSCC) and 4 (Scopus) within
the above databases respectively. Also, 179 scientific
papers have been published as well as 37 professional
papers in journals and proceedings. This includes 32
professional and scientific papers authored by our external associates who
added the Polytechnic to their papers thereby demonstrating their productivity.
Among more significant
journals where the teachers and associates publish their works there are the
following domestic and international scientific and professional journals in
the fields of social and biotechnical sciences: International Journal of
Electro Chemical Science, Desalination and Water Treatment, Food Chemistry,
Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Quarterly, Journal of Food and Nutrition
