2.4 Guiding principles
The ERA evaluation and EI assessment were developed within specific guiding principles (Appendix A). Any recommendations or outcomes of the Review must maintain these key principles to ensure that evaluation of university research is:
robust
•
reliable
•
• flexible (i.e. able to be applied across a broad range of disciplines).
In the context of COVID-19, the Review is also guided by considering the ongoing needs of the sector, and therefore value for effort or investment is also a key issue. Streamlining and simplifying the processes, effectively harnessing big data and technology to reduce reporting burden, and improving the transparency and robustness of both programs will help to ensure their value to stakeholders into the future.
Further information on ERA and EI can be accessed on the ARC website.
