Research data management and related topics: know-how for your research project
This series of workshops organised by the ETH Library and the Scientific IT Services at ETH Zurich introduces you to the diverse aspects of research data management.
There are fiveworkshops in the series, and each builds on the previous ones.
- The first course teaches the basics of research data management and how to apply them. This will constitute the foundation of your own research project.
- In the second workshop, you will learn to manage and analyse data for reproducible research. Topics include secure data storage, creating back-ups and securing reproducibility and reusability of data and results.
- Part three of the series is about publishing data and working with open-access and open-research data in compliance with all requirements.
- In workshop number four, we will teach you good practices when using confidential data for your research. You will also learn which platforms to use and which laws to observe when using sensitive data.
- The fifth and last workshop is about scientific outreach and promoting your own research. You will find out why the social media are especially relevant for academics, learn the dos and don’ts for publishing on Twitter and LinkedIn, and get to know the storytelling method for writing texts, which is useful on social media and beyond.
In the 2021 spring semester too, we will be running our workshops online via Zoom. The courses will take place on Wednesdays between 24 February and 24 March 2021 from 9.00 a.m. to 12.30 p.m. All courses are held in English. They are aimed at doctoral students, postdocs, academic staff and other members of ETH Zurich.
You can sign up for individual workshops or the entire series of workshops on our website.
Good to know: We can also organise additional sessions of the workshops for groups of five people or more upon request. You can make an appointment on our website.
