Content
This unit focuses on knowledge and skills required to successfully manage or evaluate a research group or unit and includes strategies to maximize or assess research impact, minimise risk and how to measure research quality. As such, this unit places research activities and outcomes in a broader organisational context, but also emphasises the key considerations that individual researchers need to take into account to maximise research outcomes for themselves and their organisation. Key topics will include the nature of “quality” and “impact” in research assessment and research risk management, how to identify and successfully publish in leading journals, measures of research impact, reach and influence using bibliographic and related on-line tools, the role and value of science research communication, including popular articles and use of on-line media. Others elements of this unit include the use of research management systems, the role and implementation of research codes of conduct, animal and human ethics and safety, commercialization of research at the institutional level, project evaluation methodologies, grant assessment and management and the kinds of national and international research assessment systems.
