Dear Sir/Madam, \
The UGC has come up with an Approved List of Journals that would be considered for the
purpose of Career Advancement Scheme (CAS) and Direct Recruitment of Teachers and
other academic staff as required under the University Grants Commission (Minimum
Qualifications for Appointment of Teachers and other Academic Staff in Universities and
Colleges and Measures for the Maintenance of Standards in Higher Education) (4th
Amendment), Regulations, 2016. The UGC Approved List of Journal is available as a web-
based database with search and browse interface at http://vvvvw.ugc.ac.in/journallisU.

The UGC has approved a list of 38,653 journals that are indexed in Web of Science, Scopus
and Indian Citation Index. Besides this, journals covered in a selected indexing and
abstracting services have been added to the UGC Approved List of Journals. Universities
can recommend inclusion of additional peer-reviewed journals that are not listed in the
existing UGC List of Approved Journals through a University-Level Academic Journal Expert
Committee.

The Standing Committee on notification of journals has devised a checklist that is to be filled
on-line for each journal recommended for inclusion in the UGC Approved List of Journals.
The web-based checklist would be accessible to the Chairman, University Level Academic
Journal Expert Committee or his nominees once he/she registers himself/herself at
http://vvww.ugc.ac.in/joumallisUuser_login.aspx .
Universities are requested to make use of this provision if so desired and recommend
additional peer-reviewed journals to be included in the UGC Approved List of Journals
following approval by the UGC Standing Committee.

The recommendations may please be uploaded on the UGC website by May 15, 2017 for
the consideration of the U G C at http ://vvvvw. u qc. ac. i n/iou rn al I i sUu se r I oq i n. as px

With kind regards

Yours sincerely,
