ARIES

The University has purchased a new system to manage research data. The system is called ARIES (ANU Research Information Enterprise System). It is based on a commercial package which has been customised to suit the University’s requirements.

ARIES replaces the previous databases used by the Research Office and Special Purpose Funds F&BS, and provides additional reporting functionality not available in previous databases.

ARIES has five separate modules - Research Projects, Grants, Publications, Ethics and Research Performance.

ARIES is available across campus via a web user interface.

ARIES runs on PCs and Macs using Internet Explorer, Netscape 6, Mozilla and Safari.

ANU staff require an account to access ARIES. Most staff will find they already have an account. Ring the Research Office on ext 56736 if you have difficulty logging in.
