Scope

JBTC is a refereed, JCR™ ranked journal that provides a forum for research and scholarly discussion of business communication, technical communication, and scientific communication. As such, JBTC offers opportunities for bridging dichotomies that have traditionally existed in professional communication journals between business and technical communication and between industrial and academic audiences. Because JBTC is designed to disseminate knowledge that can lead to improved communication practices in both academe and industry, the journal favors research that will inform professional communicators in both sectors. But articles addressing one sector or the other will also be considered. Submissions may address such topics as best practices in communication; innovative instruction in business and technical communication; qualitative and quantitative research in governmental, business, industrial, nonprofit or academic settings; and theoretical approaches to business and technical communication. While published manuscripts may represent any one of a wide range of approaches and methodologies, treatment should meet the highest standards for scholarship.
