Learning Outcomes
Programme Overview
[SCI/SSCI Paper Supervision Programme]
The programme is differentiated based on the target journal tier. The SCI Q3 track includes one introductory session and 20 hours of live online instruction; the SCI Q4 track includes one introductory session and 15 hours of live online instruction.
Service Workflow
1. Initial Assessment and Direction Confirmation
The student's disciplinary background, research experience, existing outputs, manuscript foundation, data availability, and target timeline are assessed to determine suitability for the SCI/SSCI Paper Supervision Programme and to establish a preliminary research direction.
2. Specialist Mentor Matching
Based on the student's disciplinary area, research topic, and target journal scope, a mentor with the relevant background is matched, ensuring a high degree of alignment between the mentor's expertise and the student's paper direction.
3. Topic Refinement and Research Design
The mentor collaborates with the student to refine the paper topic, clarifying the research question, research significance, theoretical framework, and methodological pathway, thereby enhancing the academic value and feasibility of the project.
4. Literature Review and Framework Construction
Under the mentor's guidance, the student completes a review of the core literature, maps the current state of research and existing gaps, and constructs the overall structure of the manuscript.
5. Data Analysis and Research Progression
Based on the disciplinary type and research methodology, the student is guided through the core research stages, which may include experimental work, data organisation, statistical analysis, case analysis, interview analysis, or model construction.
6. Academic Writing and Iterative Revision
Following the completion of an initial draft, the mentor provides multiple rounds of feedback and revision guidance addressing the manuscript's structure, argumentative logic, research methodology, interpretation of results, and academic expression.
7. Submission Preparation and Journal Matching
Based on the paper's topic and overall quality, the student is assisted in identifying and screening appropriate target journals, and in preparing all materials required for submission — including formatting adjustments, figure and table standards, reference formatting, and a Cover Letter.
8. Output Consolidation and Ongoing Support
Upon completion of the programme, the student will have produced a complete English-language manuscript and all associated submission materials. Should the paper subsequently enter a peer review or revision stage, continued revision guidance and academic support may be provided as circumstances require.
1. Develop a research topic with clear disciplinary relevance, grounded in personal interests and application objectives.
2. Demonstrate competence in foundational literature review, research question formulation, methodological selection, and the academic writing process.
3. Strengthen independent thinking, analytical reasoning, and academic expression through one-on-one mentorship. 4. Produce a structurally complete research paper or scholarly output that conforms to established academic conventions.
[SCI/SSCI Paper Supervision Programme]
1. Understand the fundamental structure, writing conventions, and international journal submission requirements of SCI/SSCI papers.
2. Formulate a research topic of greater academic significance and methodological feasibility within the student's disciplinary area.
3. Demonstrate command of the core methods involved in literature review, research design, data analysis, results discussion, and academic argumentation.
4. Produce an English-language manuscript that conforms to the writing standards of international academic journals. 5. Develop the ability to conduct a preliminary screening of target journals based on the paper's topic, research quality, and scope.
6. Strengthen academic expression, critical thinking, research integrity, and long-term research capacity.
