ECMS ERA Results
The recently released 2018 Excellence in Research Australia (ERA) results represent an outstanding achievement for ECMS. Of the University’s 67 assessed discipline areas, ECMS has achieved a ‘straight five’ result (well above world standard) for all Engineering and Mathematics disciplines and has been assessed at above and well above world standard for our Computer Sciences disciplines – with Artificial Intelligence achieving a 5. We are incredibly proud of this achievement – and all our wonderful researchers and staff – without whom this result would not have been possible.
About ERA
ERA is Australia’s national research evaluation framework. Administered by the Australian Research Council (ARC), ERA aims to identify excellence in research by comparing Australia’s university research effort against international benchmarks. ERA evaluates performance within each discipline at each university to provide a detailed view of the research landscape in Australia. It highlights national research strengths – in areas of critical economic and social importance – across all disciplines. Additionally, ERA results highlight the research strengths of individual universities.
