The submission deadlines are announced separately for each issue.

Student-Led Academic Publishing

MJIP is managed by an undergraduate Editorial Board with academic supervision. The Editorial Board oversees submissions, editorial coordination, copyediting, publication preparation, and public communication.

The journal is supported by an Academic Advisor and, where applicable, an Academic Council composed of faculty members and alumni who contribute to academic quality, mentorship, and institutional continuity.

Institutional Development

Beginning with the 2025–26 academic year, MJIP expanded its submission policy to welcome undergraduate students from Türkiye and abroad. This marks a new stage in the journal’s development as it seeks to become a more inclusive, visible, and institutionally sustainable undergraduate academic platform.
