- Abstract:
The International Journal of Construction Education and Research (IJCER) is an academic peer-reviewed journal supported by the Associated Schools of Construction (ASC), publishing scholarly work associated with construction education and research. The purpose of this paper is to explore the increasing academic impact of the IJCER over the first 15 years of publication. This research included three principal objectives: first, evaluating the state of the IJCER with regard to commonly used academic impact metrics; second, defining the community of scholars IJCER most commonly associates with; and third, evaluating the role that the IJCER serves as a publication resource. This research demonstrated that the IJCER has become more comparable with top tiered construction management related journals based on academic impact metrics. The research further indicated that there is a large body of researchers that regularly contribute to ASC publications, including scholars from both research and non-research based institutions. The journal can continue to strengthen the academic impact by expanding collaborative efforts, establishing more external clustering relationships and visibility outside of the ASC, and ascertaining more of an international presence within the greater community of construction scholars. Ultimately, this research can be used help guide the future of the IJCER.
