The Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) Initiative
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.
ERA uses leading researchers to evaluate research in eight discipline clusters.
ERA will detail areas within institutions and disciplines that are internationally competitive, as well as point to emerging areas where there are opportunities for development and further investment.
A 2009 trial of ERA evaluated the Physical, Chemical and Earth Sciences (PCE) and Humanities and Creative Arts (HCA) clusters.
The 2010 ERA process covers all discipline clusters.
