Course description

This workshop for PhD researchers of the Faculty of Humanities centers around the data management plan (DMP): a digital document in which you describe what data you are going to collect during your research project, how you will store and manage the data during the project, and what will happen to the data after the project has finished.

Planning for data management reduces the chances of having to face nasty surprises later in your research. It will save you time, work and money. Moreover, a growing number of research funders make a (succinct) DMP mandatory.

When to take the course?

The best moment for the course is usually during the first year of your PhD. The exact timing depends on your individual situation. To benefit fully from the course, take it before you start working with research data for your project but make sure that you already know to some extent what type of data you are going to use.
