Article Processing Charges (APC)

IJMC Menu

At the International Journal of Management Cases (IJMC), we are committed to disseminating valuable research widely and affordably. To support this commitment, we have established a transparent pricing structure for our article processing charges.

The standard APC for publishing in the IJMC is GBP 400. This fee supports the range of activities associated with the management and operation of the journal, including rigorous peer review, journal development, and the maintenance of our open-access digital platform, ensuring that all articles are freely accessible immediately upon publication.
