The UC Research Repository is an open-access database of original research authored by Canterbury academics, researchers and postgraduate students.   The aim of the Repository is to expose UC-authored research to as wide an audience as possible, by providing free access to full-text research through common internet search tools, such as Google Scholar and SCOPUS.

The Repository provides an enduring archive for Canterbury research, and features a well-structured, search engine friendly database format. The Repository is integrated with the UC People & Research Database and the Research Profile. We are also a member repository of the National Library of New Zealand's Kiwi Research Information Service (KRIS). NZResearch.org.

We send out results for Colleges and the University as a whole every three months. From the start of 2013 we included reporting by college.

You can find statistics for a group of authors within a College, School or department. You can view all works for an individual author in the Repository. You can also create a list of the 'top' PBRF-eligible items in the Repository as a whole, or by College, School and departmental units, and do the same for theses.
