Short description
Research data is part of a digitisation process in science that challenges aspects of scientific work such as reproducibility, re-usability or sustainability. The professional management of digital research data is an essential prerequisite for effective and excellent research. In this workshop, the most important aspects of research data management and publication are considered, with a special focus on social sciences.
The units are accompanied by practical exercises, through which the newly acquired knowledge can be strengthened and transferred to the participants' own cases. Participants will get to know useful tools and platforms to effectively work with their data.
Target group
PhD researchers and postdocs interested in the topic and/or struggling with certain aspects of research data management and publication in the context of their own dissertation or research projects.
