Research ReportingAs an academic or affiliate of the University, you are required to participate in research information gathering exercises at Bond. Your contribution directly affects the amount of block funding we receive from the government to support research. Faculty Research Coordinators are responsible for coordinating the collection of your bibliographic information and other details as required for internal and government reporting. Faculty Coordinators are: Currently Bond participates in the following reporting exercises: Bond University Library also provides further information and support to enable you to measure and analyse your research outputs. HERDC
The Higher Education Research Data Collection is administered by the Department of Innovation, Industry, Science and Research (DIISR). It is an annual collection that reports on the publication outputs and research income of the University for the previous year. The data collection for 2011 is now closed. ERA
The Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) initiative assesses research quality within Australia's higher education institutions using a combination of indicators and expert review by committees comprising experienced, internationally-recognised experts. The evaluation for ERA 2010 was completed by Research Evaluation Committees (REC) comprising leading researchers to evaluate the research in Units of Evaluation (UoE) determined by Fields of Research (FoR) codes.
The ERA 2010 National Report is now publicly available. We are now in the process of collecting information for ERA 2012. ERA 2012The ERA 2012 Journal List incorporates feedback received during the final comment period held between 4 September and 19 September 2011 and is now available on the ARC website. Further information about the ERA initiative and the refined journal indicator for ERA 2012 can be found on the Research Excellence pages of the ARC website.
Announcement of the ERA 2012 publication tagging (EID tagging) period
SciVerse Scopus will provide the ERA 2012 publication tagging service for journal articles from 1 November 2011 to 17 January 2012. SciVerse Scopus will provide further details to institutions as they become available.
SRE
Sustainable Research Excellence (SRE) is an initiative of DIISR to help address identified shortfalls in funding of the indirect costs of research. These costs include infrastructure, salary on-costs, consumables, and so on. The funding available is $510 million for the implementation stages from 2009 to 2013 after which $300 million (indexed) will be made available. As a consequence of Bond’s participation in the 2010 trial, Bond received an extra $184, 762 over and above its base allocation of $20 065 in 2011 to support its research effort. The SRE 2011 Staff Hours survey will be conducted from 20th June to 29th July 2011 and staff are only required to fill in this survey for two weeks over this period. Staff participation in 2011 is critical to Bond’s success in securing extra SRE funding for 2012 and 2013. Your Faculty Research Coordinator and Dr Suzanne Bedford (link) in the Office of Research Services are available to lend academic staff every assistance in filling out their survey.
