Workshop description
All postgraduate researchers are required to have a Data Management Plan (DMP) in place before completing their first annual review (GRS3). This workshop will help you to achieve this by covering the basics of Research Data Management, including:
- Identifying the different types of data you will create during your research;
- The security, sensitivity and storage considerations relating to that data;
- The FAIR data concept;
- Using the DMPOnline tool to create your DMP.
If you are in receipt of funding from one of the UK Research Councils, a charity, or have commercial sponsorship, you may find it worthwhile to bring along any existing DMPs relating to the research grant award - this will aid in the development of your own DMP.
