SCI can be used to retrieve important academic achievements in mathematics, physics, chemistry, astronomy, biology, medicine, agricultural science, computer science, materials science and other disciplines. Therefore, SCI is not only the retrieval direction of academic journals, but also the retrieval direction of academic conferences. In addition, we can search some patents through SCI.
Introduction to SCI retrieval
SCI is an international comprehensive academic retrieval tool. Therefore, there are many periodicals retrieved by SCI, covering a wide range of professions. So there are too many journals included in SCI, and some excellent journals in China are also searched by SCI, because SCI is a scientific citation index.
Therefore, the journals and documents retrieved by SCI are biased towards science and technology, that is, towards science. In fact, every retrieval tool is basically based on engineering technology. For example, EI is based on engineering technology.
