Dashboard reporting uses Microsoft Power BI. 

The Strategic Research dashboards arose from consultation with Faculty Management, Research Strategy Managers, Finance, Departmental Heads and Departmental Managers to improve strategic reporting, as well as specifically at a departmental level. 

Due to the sensitive nature of these reports, the data must not be quoted directly without first gaining approval from both the relevant Departmental Manager and Faculty Research Strategy Manager. 

To be eligible to access these Strategic Research Dashboards, you should belong to one of these business areas: 

  • Senior College Management 
  • Faculty Management 
  • Faculty Finance 
  • Research Strategy 
  • Strategic Planning 
  • Heads of Department 
  • Department Heads of Research 
  • Department Operations Managers 
  • Research Operations Managers 
  • Central Finance 
  • Enterprise 
  • Advancement 

If not, you may still be permitted access providing the Research Office and all Faculties approve. Please contact the Research Office to request access to this dashboard, who will arrange for any approvals necessary. 

The following strategic reports are available: 

Trends

This shows research grant application volumes, success rates, award volumes and expenditure over time.  These can be displayed or filtered by faculty, department, institute, funder group, funder type or individual funder.

Recent Success

This shows the top departments, funders, academics and awards won in a recent period.  The time period can be defined by the user.  These can be displayed or filtered by faculty, department, institute, funder group, funder type or individual funder.

Sustainability

This shows the recoverability of research grant applications and the research pipeline.  These can be displayed or filtered by faculty, funder group or funder type.

Academic Comparison
