Abstract "Scientific research participation and impacts" has been introduced into the scientific research evaluation system of Australian universities, and more attention has been paid to cooperation and interaction between researchers and external users as well as research impacts on society. The system shows lots of innovative characteristics: comprehensively evaluating "scientific research participation and impacts", which is with more realistic significance; paying attention to cost control to reduce university evaluation pressure; respecting differences in disciplinary evaluation, and adopting expert review based on the model of "indicators + narration". Drawing on Australia′s experience, China should set up individualized indicators, and conduct differentiated evaluations of social participation and impacts of disciplines; establish a research information database, and alleviate university data reporting pressure; enhance transparency and timeliness of information disclosure at all stages of evaluation, and pay attention to social impact evaluation of university research results, so as to improve university discipline evaluation system, which is dominated by research evaluation.
