Courses for Newly Promoted Associate Professors

Creating and Maintaining your Data Management Plan

Data management planning is fundamental for ensuring the quality of research and driving scientific progress, and many funders are therefore making it a mandatory requirement for applicants. But many scientists are still unsure how to go about creating one. In a survey of early-career researchers in Europe, only 25% of respondents had written a data management plan (DMP) before and another 25% did not know what a DMP was. This self-paced module will teach the structure and content of a DMP and how to set up one for your project.
