Quality, Quantity and the Conundrum of Metrics | 11 October

Panel: Alaina Ammit (ADR, Science), Alan McKee (ADR, FASS), Michael Blumenstein (ADR, FEIT)

Chair: Rosalie Viney (Director, CHERE)

There seems to be no end of research metrics and measurements: ERA, EIA, citation counts, ranked journal lists, ever newer global rankings, and ever more sophisticated modelling of research performance.

• How do we understand what these measurements and metrics are doing?
• Are they changing the way we do research, and indeed, what we research?
• And what role does quantity play in how we understand research quality?

These questions and more will be discussed and debated by a panel of UTS research leaders.
