It publishes Regular Research Articles, Commentaries, and Letters to the Editor on studies in the Natural, Physical, Mathematical, Computational and Social Sciences, including those related to Agriculture, Health, Engineering, Environment, Education and Technology. Solicited Reviews will also be featured. Position Papers, White Papers, Popular Science Articles on science and technology topics, including science policy issues, are welcome. Submission of News Reports of Scientific Meetings or Events is encouraged. From time to time, SciEnggJ will feature Articles on Prominent Filipino Scientists and their work. It will also include brief summaries of newsworthy science articles from other publications.
