Postgraduate Faculty of Animal Science UGM held a public lecture with the theme “Publication of Articles in Scientific Journals.” The meeting discussed the preparation of manuscripts, selecting journals, and submissions. The lecture will be held online on Wednesday, April 7, 2021.
Abdul Rohman, Ph.D. from the Center for Excellence in Higher Education Science and Technology, the Institute for Halal Industry and System (PUI-PT IHIS) Universitas Gadjah Mada, was a speaker at the article publication event. Abdul explained that some materials support the making of articles until they are published, “In the results and discussion sections, the pictures and tables should be referred in the text. The main findings should be presented in a table or figure. Things that also need to be considered include not repeating the mention of the results frequently but directly to the focus of the discussion, not being wordy, and writing the main findings in independent figures and tables, ” said Abdul.
The event was held with a material presentation by Abdul Rohman and then continued with activities to review journal articles made by the participants. Reference making is discussed in-depth with the Mendeley reference generation system. Abdul gave suggestions to the participants regarding journal making. A journal intended for publication in English would be best made with “Don’t start with native,” which means that articles made directly into English, not Indonesian, are converted to English.
