Researchers' Online Projects Enquiry System (ROPES)
ROPES Released: Thursday 9th March 2006 via My.Monash portal
ROPES is a subset of the TARDIS web application and as such, shares many similarities. However, it has been designed with the requirements of the academic researcher in mind. It will - no doubt - be most useful in pulling together the various data required for tracking an individual's research activity; ahead of the Research Quality Framework (RQF) exercise.
In addition, it will aid in establishing collaborative research links. Details of a researchers' projects - as determined by the researcher him/herself, can be made available for others to view by way of a keyword search.
Like TARDIS, it is special in that it is able to pull data together from the University's three entirely separate enterprise databases:
- is via:
- My.Monash portal
- Click on the "Teaching and research" tab, once you have logged in
- At this stage, not all users of the portal can see and use ROPES - you are required to be an academic researcher employed by Monash University
