Encouraging greater collaboration between universities, industries and other end-users of research

The Australian Government’s innovation agenda will include an assessment of how universities are translating their research into economic, social and other benefits and encourage greater collaboration between universities, industries and other end-users of research.

An Engagement and Impact Assessment pilot will be undertaken in 2017 to test the methodology and processes of the full assessment, which will roll out nationally in 2018. The national assessment will be undertaken as a companion to Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA). For more information about the Engagement and Impact Assessment, visit the ARC website.
