Consultation Paper - Review of Excellence in Research for A…

EI 2018 recognised the challenges for institutions collecting this data and anticipated the Department of Education, Skills and Employment (DESE) changes to the collection of HDR data. DESE began collecting this data from 2018.

ERA contextual indicators—applied measures

ERA currently collects data on applied measures including:

patents

research commercialisation income

The ARC is interested in the view of stakeholders on the use of some or any of the ERA applied measures as measures of research engagement in EI.
