Journal Center

The Journal Center of College of Civil Engineering was founded in 2022 in celebration of the 115th anniversary of Tongji University. The center is home to 9 peer-reviewed English journals and 4 peer-reviewed Chinese journals spanning a broad field of civil engineering. Across the center’s journals, 3 English journals are newly launched to promote cutting-edge research devoted for building intelligent, resilient, and low-carbon infrastructure and cities. 

The journal center advances the college’s objective of excellence in research and education through journals program. It is committed to coordinating a clustery growth of high-quality journals that disseminate high-impact outcomes of scientific and technological research in the discipline of civil engineering. It also serves as an international platform that supports high-level conference and workshops, and connects Tongji’s best researchers with worldwide collaborators from academy and industry.
