ERA 2018 Journal Rankings List

The ARC maintains a compilation of ERA eligible journals being accredited for the purpose of establishing research excellence within the Australian university sector. These journals are grouped together under the Fields of Research codes, with many journals being grouped in two or even three Fields of Research while those which would be grouped under four or more major Fields of Research are grouped together under ‘Multidisciplinary’.
