Abstract

This article reports on a project to expand the evidence base for Australian theological research in two ways. Firstly, by preparing an evidence-based, expert informed ranking of religion and theology journals. Secondly, by analysing Australian Research Council grants in religion and theology, and benchmarking against other fields in terms of grants awarded, success rates, relationship to staff numbers, and publications. Some recommendations for enhancing the role of religion and theology research emerge from this analysis. The project is set in the context of the history of Australian theological research within the Australian higher education system.
