Need to know where to start or need a quick reminder? The Bite size sessions will cover the essentials and direct you to further learning.
Planning for research is essential. Planning should include data management.
• I am writing a research proposal. What does a Data Management Plan contain?
• I am starting a research project. How should I manage my research data?
• What do I do with sensitive data?
• Where should I deposit my research data at the end of a project or publication?
This session focuses on the development and use of Data Management Plans (DMPs).
Research Data Management (RDM) is important for the success of a research project and is becoming increasingly important with major funding bodies, including UKRI, the Wellcome Trust and Horizon 2020. This session will include a brief overview of what a plan needs to contain and some sample DMPs from a selection of Research Councils, and a demonstration of the Digital Curation Centre’s DMP Online service.
Who is it for?
Research Active Staff (research, academic or teaching terms and conditions of employment) and PhD students.
Session Objectives:
By the end of the session attendees will gain a greater understanding of RDM as well as learning how to create Data Management Plans for research projects and discovering where to find help if needed.
