  2. What is ERA? • ERA evaluates the quality of the research undertaken in Australian universities against national and international benchmarks. • The outcomes (ratings) are determined and moderated by committees of distinguished researchers, drawn from Australia and overseas. • The unit of evaluation is broadly defined as the Field of Research (FoR) within an institution based on the Australia and New Zealand Standard Research Classification (ANZSRC). • The indicators used in ERA include a range of metrics such as citation profiles which are common to disciplines in the natural sciences, and peer review of a sample of research outputs which is more broadly common in the humanities and social sciences. • ERA is a comprehensive collection. The data submitted by universities covers all eligible researchers and their research outputs.

  3. Stages of Evaluation Stage 3 • REC Members meet to finalise all UoE ratings Stage 2C • REC Members are given view only access to moderated 2- & 4-digit evaluations to prepare for Stage 3 meeting. Stage 2B • REC Members are given access to the preliminary evaluation outcomes for 2-digit UoEs from other REC Members and Peer Reviewers’ evaluations for moderation. Stage 2A • REC Members are given access to the preliminary evaluation outcomes for 4-digit UoEs from other REC Members and Peer Reviewers’ evaluations for moderation. REC Members complete preliminary evaluation of 2-digit UoEs. Stage 1 • REC Members evaluate assigned material and record preliminary evaluations in SEER REC Member Stage 1 • ERA Peer Reviewers evaluate assigned material and record evaluations in SEER ERA National Report PeerReviewer
