Isabela State University (ISU) Cauayan Campus formally lauds the SUKISOK Journal of the Arts and Sciences for securing its place in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), a breakthrough that positions it as the first across the entire ISU system to earn inclusion in the globally respected index.

DOAJ is internationally regarded as a stringent gatekeeper of open-access scholarship, admitting only journals that demonstrate uncompromising standards in peer review, editorial governance, transparency, and publication ethics. SUKISOKโ€™s admission signals its solidified compliance with these benchmarks and certifies the journalโ€™s credibility within the international academic community.

With its DOAJ listing, the SUKISOK Journal now projects the work of its contributors onto a global scholarly stage, dismantling access barriers and enabling researchers, educators, students, and policymakers worldwide to engage with its published studies without restriction. The achievement markedly expands the journalโ€™s reach and cements its role as a conduit for interdisciplinary inquiry in the arts and sciences.

The recognition further reinforces ISU Cauayan Campusโ€™ research thrust toward visibility, rigor, and global relevance. As the systemโ€™s first DOAJ-indexed journal, SUKISOK elevates its standing and sets a demanding precedent for scholarly publishing across the university.

Closing the year on this note, the campus hails the accomplishment as a decisive stride toward broader readership, sharpened scholarship, and sustained academic dialogue anchored in openness and integrity.
