*Impact factor calculated from OpenAlex open data (2-year citedness), not the official Clarivate Journal Impact Factor. Indexing from the SCIE, SSCI, AHCI, ESCI, Scopus and JCR lists used on ScholarsColab. Not finding a journal? Search the journal directory.

Is IET Scopus indexed?

Indexes such as Scopus and Web of Science list journals one by one, so a publisher is never indexed as a whole. For IET:

IndexJournalsShare
Scopus46 98%
Web of Science: SCIE, SSCI or AHCI27 57%
Web of Science: ESCI12 26%
Journal Citation Reports 202439 83%
DOAJ (fully open access)39 83%

Always confirm the journal itself on the Web of Science Master Journal List or the Scopus source list before you submit; each journal page links to them.

Frequently asked questions

Is IET Scopus indexed?

Scopus indexes journals one by one, not publishers. Of the 47 IET journals in our data, 46 (98%) are in the Scopus list. Check the exact journal in the table, and confirm on the Scopus source list before you submit.

Are IET journals in Web of Science (SCIE)?

27 of its 47 journals are in the Science, Social Sciences or Arts & Humanities Citation Index (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI) and 12 in the Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI). Only journals in SCIE, SSCI or AHCI get an official Journal Impact Factor from Clarivate.

Which IET journal has the highest impact factor?

By the impact factor* calculated from OpenAlex open data, CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology is the highest, at 5.84. This is not the official Clarivate value; check Journal Citation Reports for that.

Does IET have open access journals?

39 of its journals are fully open access and listed in DOAJ; those with an article fee charge a median of about US$2,510, and 2 list no article fee. Many of its other journals are hybrid: publishing is free unless you choose open access for your article.

Can I get an APC waiver from IET?

IET's waiver and discount rules, and whether your author team qualifies, are on its APC waiver page; the free checker tests the countries of all your authors.
