The articles submitted for publishing are reviewed by two external academics - not affiliated with Babes-Bolyai University, nor with the institution of the author. They have to fill a standard review form (see description below), and their suggestions are sent to the author if further revisions are required. The Journal uses a double blind peer review system, neither the authors nor the reviewers know each other's names throughout the entire review process.
