For each institution, a quality profile shows the percentage of staff submitted by the institution receiving the RAE grades 4*, 3*, 2*, 1* and unclassified. The overall average score is the grade-point average (GPA) of the institution s quality profile. To find the GPA, the percentage of staff within an institution to receive a 4* grade is multiplied by 4, the percentage of staff to receive a 3* is multiplied by 3, the percentage of staff to receive a 2* is multiplied by 2 and the percentage of staff to receive a 1* is multiplied by 1; the results are added together and divided by 100 to give an average score of between 0 and 4. Staff who are unclassified receive a score of 0 and do not feature in the calculation. The 2001 rank order is taken from Times Higher Education s table for the RAE 2001. This ranked institutions according to the average score per member of staff submitted, with a score from 1 to 7 representing the seven previous RAE grades (5*, 5, 4, 3a, 3b, 2 and 1). An equivalent method is used in the RAE 2008. The contextual column listing the indicative proportion of RAEeligible staff submitted is an attempt to show how selective universities have been in choosing which academics to enter into the RAE. It is calculated by dividing the total number of staff that an institution submits to the RAE by the number of academic staff at the institution within the grades professors, senior lecturers and researchers and lecturers, according to the latest published data available from the Higher Education Statistics Agency (Resources of Higher Education s, 2006-07). There are known to be differences in how institutions classify staff, but the three grades are selected because nearly all staff within them will technically be eligible for the RAE. Two further grades, researchers and other, are excluded because the former includes many research assistants who are not RAE eligible and the latter generally refers to nonstandard academic staff who tend not to be RAE eligible. The information on indicative proportion of RAE eligible staff entered should be read with caution and the following caveats: BEHIND THE NUMBERS: THE METHODOLOGY USED TO MAKE THE TABLES l Not all RAE-eligible staff will be captured. At least some staff graded as researcher or other will be RAE eligible l some non-rae-eligible staff will also be captured l there are differences in how Hesa and Hefce calculate full-time equivalent staff numbers l the data cover the period 1 August 2006 to 31 July 2007, and are therefore outside the RAE 2008 census date for staff in post at 31 October 2007 (Hesa could not provide the 2007-08 data before Times Higher Education went to press) l the approach is not applicable for a number of universities, including, for example, the University of Huddersfield, which entered all its staff in the other category l institutions that appear to have returned more than 100 per cent of their staff are capped at 100 per cent with a greater than sign (>) to indicate this l Hesa has requested the following disclaimer accompany the use of the data: Hesa holds no data specifying which or how many staff have been regarded by each institution as eligible for inclusion in RAE 2008, and no data on the assignment to units of assessment of those eligible staff not included. Further, the data that Hesa does hold is not an adequate alternative basis on which to estimate eligible staff numbers. Additional notes l n/a indicates that no information is available, or comparison with 2001 is not possible because the subject is not compatible or the institution has not entered before. l The number of staff submitted for assessment is the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) staff. l Hefce s quality profiles within individual units of assessment (UoAs), from which the average score is calculated, show the percentage of research activity falling within the grades rather than the percentage of staff. Times Higher Education s approach to calculating institutional profiles assumes that research activity is equivalent to staff activity. Hefce s original quality profiles are rounded to 5 per cent. For information on how to read the RAE Subject Ratings table, see page 41. Data analysis was undertaken by Education Data Surveys (EDS), which is part of TSL Education.

assessment (UoA). Within each UoA, departments are ranked by their, which is the grade-point average of their Hefce quality profile. To obtain this GPA, the activity within an institution to receive a 4* grade is multiplied by 4, the activity to receive a 3* is multiplied by 3, the activity to receive a 2* is multiplied by 2, and the activity to receive a 1* is multiplied by 1; the results are added together and divided by 100 to give a score of between 0 and 4. The percentage of 4* research activity and the number of staff submitted are presented as contextual information. Each UoA also has a national profile showing the total number of staff submitted for the entire UoA, the percentage of 4* research activity within the UoA and the overall average.
