Excellence in Research for Australia

The Research Quality Framework (RQF) process established by the former Government has been replaced with a new initiative. The Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) initiative was announced on 29 February, 2008 by Minister for Industry, Innovation, Science and Research Senator the Hon Kim Carr.

The Australian Research Council (ARC) has now released a website on the Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) initiative.

More information on how Flinders University will be working with the initiative will be published on the Office of Research blog in the ERA category, and on the Flinders University ERA website.
