Description
With the aim of accompanying researchers from all faculties of Trier University on their way to Open Science (FAIR & Open Data, Open Access), the SeS supports research projects in the development and implementation of digital concepts, the implementation of research infrastructures in the project-specific work process, including the preparation of data management plans. For this purpose, consulting services are already provided during the preparation of third-party funding applications and continue throughout the project implementation. Comprehensive information material on research data management (RDM) is provided and, if necessary, other RDM experts are referred to for specialist advice.
Due to their special expertise in the digitalisation of research in the humanities, projects in these subject areas are supported in the development of method-specific data models and in the preparation of existing data.
In this context, the SeS offers a variety of qualification programmes ranging from individual counselling to hands-on workshops and information events.
- individual project-accompanying RDM consulting from planning to archiving
- Creation of data management plans with RDMO
- RDM-Introduction
- FuD introduction workshop
- project-specific FuD workshop
- FuD expert workshop
- Workshop on RDM strategy development
