Origins & Milestones
Origin of TMC Academic Journal
The idea of introducing an academic journal to facilitate the exchange of ideas among academia was first mooted by the current Chief Editor, Dr. Ha Huong, during her short working holiday period at TMC in December 2005. Subsequently, TMC Academic Journal was introduced in December 2005, thanks to the efforts of Dr. Kuppuswamy Ranganathan and his colleagues at TMC Business School. Dr. Ranganathan also worked closely with Dr. Ha at the initial stage to develop the guidelines/instructions for submission to the journal.
The journal provides opportunities for TMC staff members, academia and practitioners to publish their original and unpublished research works and to exchange ideas and experiences in teaching and doing research. The dissemination of research output will help TMC leverage off its reputation for quality, professionalism, research and development which can contribute to justifying its leadership role in the private education industry.
