DSPGJED is a peer-reviewed publication with focus on basic and applied research in Engineering and Allied Disciplines. Its scope extends over original contributions published as any of research articles, tutorial review or scientific commentaries. The Journal, which is an annual publication, has an Editorial Advisory Board constituted by eminent scientists and researchers spread across the globe, and accepts original contributions from authors in the global scientific community.

Publications are encouraged to typically include description of the problem formulation, the establishment of an appropriate model, method (s) of problem solution, results and applications of interest to engineering practice. Where applicable experimental data are required to be complete and should include sufficient description of experimental set-up, methods and relevant experimental conditions, as will enable replication. Original research papers are herby invite not only from higher and Research Institutions in Nigeria but all over the world.
