Scientific journals are publications containing a collection of scientific articles or writings. Besides disseminating research results, these publications serve as information sources for knowledge development, technological innovation, and even public policy formulation.

Good journals also ensure quality and originality, and detect fraud or plagiarism in scientific writings through a peer review process.

According to Scimago Journal & Country Rank data, the United States (US) is the most productive country in producing scientific journals.

During the period 1996-2022, the country that has planted its flag on the moon published approximately 15.2 million scientific journals.

Next in line are China, the United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, France, India, Italy, Canada, and Australia, with the number of journal publications as shown in the graph.

Far below these countries, Indonesia has only published approximately 311,000 scientific journals in the same period.

This achievement places Indonesia 39th in the world or 3rd in ASEAN, lagging behind neighboring countries such as Malaysia (26th in the world) and Singapore (35th in the world), despite their much smaller populations.

Meanwhile, the Minister of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology (Mendikbudristek), Nadiem Makarim, has stated that the government no longer requires undergraduate students to write a thesis as a graduation requirement.

The government also no longer requires postgraduate (S-2 and S-3) students to publish their work in scientific journals to graduate.

However, universities can still require these things based on their own considerations.

"(Students' final assignments) can be in the form of prototypes, projects, and other forms, not just theses or dissertations. This doesn't mean theses or dissertations are not allowed, but the decision rests with each university," said Nadiem, as quoted from *Kompas.com*, Tuesday (29/8/2023).

"Applied S-2 and S-3 students are required to have a final assignment, but it is no longer mandatory to publish it in a journal," said Nadiem.
