The course objective is thus to promote good research practices by helping the participant make informed choices in relation to planning and executing research processes such as data collecting, data analysis, data storing and sharing.
The course will be split into two workshops aimed at supporting the individual PhD student in planning the data handling that is inherent to the PhD project.
The course consists of two teaching days, and when you register, you will automatically be signed up for both. Be aware that the course includes homework. Before the first day of teaching, 4 hours of homework is expected to get an introduction to the topics and materials, and then 15 hours of homework drafting a DMP and working on a dataset is to be expected between 1st and 2nd day of teaching.
