Peer esteem
This section of the IRP enables you to record the details of your peer esteem indicators. These indicators provide evidence of your standing in the research community.
Some examples of peer esteem indicators
- memberships or fellowships of learned academies or prestigious academic research based bodies
- committee membership of major national or international funding bodies
- invitations to present plenary or symposia at national and international meetings, keynote addresses, named lectures
- editorial responsibilities, eg editorships of major research journals, participation in editorial boards and provision of invited reviews
- national and international competitive fellowships or major research prizes and awards
- individual contributions to major advisory bodies (public or individual)
- evidence of collaboration with centres outside Australia
- service on peer review committees
- hosting distinguished international researchers
- invitations to visit research institutes overseas
- conference organisation
- prize winning publications
- joint or sponsored appointments with industry or commerce
- policy advice to government or regulatory bodies
- participation in international research assessment exercises
- descriptions/citations demonstrating peer esteem for particular research outputs.
Peer esteem indicators will vary according to the fields of research and not all of the above will be applicable to your field of research.
The category of peer esteem indicator can be selected from the drop down box categories and you can also record the applicable timeframe, associated organisation and details of the indicator. Once the peer esteem factor is entered it can be selected for inclusion in the IRP, removed from an IRP, and also deleted. You can also convert a peer esteem indicator to a contribution to the research environment indicator, if you judge them to be more relevant to that section of your portfolio.
