RWTH Open Access Journals
As part of the state initiative openaccess.nrw, RWTH Aachen University participates in the state-wide infrastructure service for the publication of Open Access journals, recommended by DH.NRW and funded by the Ministry of Culture and Science of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia.
As an RWTH member, the University Library (UB) supports you in publishing a scientific journal in Diamond Open Access. This can be, for example, the founding of a new journal, the migration of an existing open access journal or the transformation of a journal to Open Access.
If you are interested in our OJS offer, please contact openaccess@ub.rwth-aachen.de.
The following journals are managed by the University Library of RWTH Aachen University:

archimaera
Architecture has many facets, as does the study of it. Architectural theory, architectural design and architectural history approach the common theme from very different angles, have developed a wide range of methods and are interested in a variety of historical and current topics. The diversity of these approaches is reflected all too clearly in the spectrum of architectural journals: each specialises in a particular area, dealing with topics related to design practice, following the theoretical and social discussion of architecture or viewing architecture as a historical phenomenon from a humanities perspective. archimaera, however, endeavours to juxtapose these varying perspectives within its thematically framed biannual issues.

HumTec Working Papers
The HumTec Working Papers present ongoing work and findings from researchers associated with the Human Technology Centre (HumTec) at RWTH Aachen University. HumTec Working Papers address scientific and technological topics from a social sciences & humanities perspective and provide academic insights into problems relevant to the public. Thus, we are interested in contributions to the field of science on science research, broadly understood, or to Science and Technology Studies (STS). Interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research feature prominently, too. Altogether, we welcome submissions that present pertinent research along the lines just mentioned, and we may also accept distantly related papers if these “talk” to the HumTec agenda in one way or the other. All submitted manuscripts undergo an internal peer review (usually two reviewers).
