Research data and performance
The Research Performance Analyst Group (RPAG), located in the Melbourne Research Office, provides support for the collection of Research Income and Research Publications data. This contributes to the annual governmental
Higher Education Research Data Collection. The Group also helps prepare a number of internal reports and publications which collate and analyse the research output of the University.
Why is this data important?
- The Government uses it to calculate performance-based funding allocations
- The University also uses it to allocate research-related funds to Faculties
- It builds reliable staff research and scholarship profiles, facilitating collaboration via resources such as Find an Expert
- Staff can maintain a dynamic bibliography of their work within Themis
