Accessing and Understanding Research Data Dashboards
To access reports and dashboards provided by Research and Innovation (R&I), users simply log in using their eRaider username and password. Once inside, you’ll find a wealth of data and metrics designed to inform and support research efforts across the university.
We understand that navigating and interpreting research data can be complex, so our team offers both individual and group training sessions to help you get started. These sessions provide an overview of the available metrics, explain where to locate specific data, and offer guidance on interpreting the insights effectively.
Responsible Use of Research Data
The data presented in R&I dashboards and reports is intended for internal use only. These metrics should not be considered final or shared externally without validation. Official, verified data is available approximately two weeks after the fiscal year ends, following the second closing fiscal period. If external reporting is required, please consult with R&I administration to ensure the information aligns with university standards and accuracy.
For internal purposes, such as evaluating faculty, making departmental decisions, or identifying trends within colleges, we encourage users to take a holistic approach. Individual metrics represent one part of an entity’s overall productivity and output, so careful interpretation is key to making informed decisions.
Tools and Resources for Research Data
R&I integrates multiple platforms to provide comprehensive data analysis, including PowerBI, Cognos reporting, and Academic Analytics software. Additionally, custom reports tailored to your needs can be requested and delivered via email or other preferred formats.
To make navigating this data easier, a glossary of terms and data definitions is available on the landing page. This resource ensures that you have a clear understanding of the metrics and insights presented within the dashboards.
