The USC Upstate Library is now providing more support to student and faculty research needs via a new paid subscription to the database, Applied Science & Technology Source Ultimate. This database contains thousands of peer-reviewed journal articles and is an ideal resource for those researching the hard sciences (biology, chemistry, etc.), computer science, informatics, engineering, Advanced Manufacturing Management, or Engineering Technology Management.

 

The following is the description of Applied Science & Technology Source Ultimate from the database provider EBSCO:

 

"Applied Science & Technology Source Ultimate, the flagship database for STEM research, boasts an extensive collection of 2,221 active full-text journals, a significant portion of which undergo peer review. It covers a wide range of science and technology topics, as well as the business and social implications of new technologies."

You can access the database via this link: https://uscupstate.libguides.com/appliedscitechultimate.

You will need to log into your USC Upstate account to access this database.

 

If you have any questions about how you or your students can use this database, please contact an Upstate librarian.
