The Ingeniería y Ciencia journal targets the academic, scientific and industrial communities involved in the fields of Science and Engineering. Its aim is to present and disseminate works of basic and applied research that contribute to the development of science and industry in the short, medium or long term. Its scope is both local and international. Publication subjects include, but are not limited to: mathematics, physics, chemistry, geology, genetics and the articulation of these areas with the practice of engineering. The editorial and scientific committees welcome papers in which the formalization or theoretical background is presented and leads to an application of engineering. They also welcome other types of papers. Likewise, they also accept publications in which the practice of engineering is used as a means to present research problems that are inherent to the basic sciences.
