“KorDaF” receives highest Italian rating for scientific journals

2025/10/30

Since 2021, the ULB has been supporting the open access journal KorDaF – Korpora Deutsch als Fremdsprache as part of its TUjournals service.

KorDaF has now been recognized as class A by ANVUR (National Agency for the Evaluation of Universities and Research Institutes), thus receiving the highest rating for scientific journals in Italy. This recognition honors the quality of the contributions, the methodological rigor, and the international relevance of the scientific discussion promoted by KorDaF.

This is an extraordinary milestone for such a young open access journal! Following DOAJ, Open policy finder, ERIH PLUS, and now the A classification, KorDaF continues to grow and strengthen its position in the international scientific community.

The ULB service TUjournals supports the publication of OA journals if at least one of the editors belongs to TU Darmstadt. The journals do not charge publication fees (APC), i.e. neither the authors nor the readers incur any costs. This special form of Gold Open Access is also called Diamond OA.

Information on TUjournals and an overview of the titles published so far can be found on the website Journal hosting. For questions or online advice, please contact the Digital Publishing Team: .
