ei is generally divided into ei conferences and ei journals. Although the value and influence of the two are different, the requirements for papers are relatively strict. Although the ei journals have more gold content than the ei conferences, the papers of the ei conferences are still flashy. Is there any use for ei conference papers? Next, I will let you know about it.
To understand whether EI conference papers will be useful to you, it is first necessary to clarify your background. If your college attaches great importance to scientific research, as long as you work hard and be active, you can win a project and even have the opportunity to publish a journal paper, then the EI conference paper will not help you much. If your college has few scientific research activities and few opportunities to contact supervisors, it is very difficult for undergraduates to host a project; or if you suddenly decide to study abroad or change majors when you are a junior or senior, and you have no time to prepare for the project, then EI conference papers do a lot for you.
Although conference papers are not helpful for extra points procedurally, they can improve our soft power in applications and interviews. We all know that whether it is postgraduate entrance examination, postgraduate study or study abroad, we all need to go through the interview process. The interview is usually after the written test. At this stage, the college has screened a large number of people through hardware such as GPA, written test scores and standardized tests. After the interview, the college selects students mainly through software such as scientific research thinking and academic experience, and strives to recruit graduate students who have the potential to engage in scientific research.
At this time, students who have published EI conference papers have relevant academic experience, scientific research thinking, and experience in English writing. They can stand out among students of the same level, attract the attention of teachers, and increase the probability of being admitted.
What is the difference between a conference paper and a journal paper?
A conference paper (CA) is an academic paper that is read or published during a conference. A Journal Article (JA) is an academic paper published in an officially published journal. The EI conference paper refers to the conference papers included in The Engineering Index founded by the Federation of American Institutions of Engineers, which is an all-English paper.
In terms of the application process, conference papers are simpler than journal papers, and there is usually no double-blind review process. It only takes 1-6 months for conference papers to be submitted for inclusion, while journal papers usually take more than 6 months to be included. It is precisely because of the long research cycle and submission process that there are very few students who can successfully publish journal papers during their undergraduate years.
In terms of recognition, the recognition of journal papers will be higher than that of conference papers. After all, from the perspective of application procedures, journal papers are already much more complicated. As far as I know, at present, many colleges and universities have clearly mentioned in the policy of guaranteeing and exempting research and comprehensive testing and evaluation system (that is, the scholarship application system) that conference papers cannot be awarded points, while core journal papers can be awarded a certain amount of points.
