Journal History
Al-Mustansiriyah Journal of Science was established in 1976 and published by Mustansiriyah University. However, the Gulf War disrupted publication, resulting in the loss of several journal issues. In 2005, the journal adopted the principles of open access, committing to provide immediate, permanent, and free access to its research content, and began indexing its content in the Iraqi Academic Scientific Journals database. In 2016, Al-Mustansiriyah Journal of Science launched its electronic online version by implementing an online management system for reviewing and publishing articles electronically. In 2017, the journal received E-ISSN 2521-3520 and provided digital object identifiers (DOI) for its articles.
