Content

In this session, we take a closer look at dealing with research data. What is research data? How should it be stored? Which problems arise when dealing with data? What are your best practice examples? The session aims to help you handle your research data in an ethically sound way.

We will focus on your cases, which will be discussed confidentially using the method of collegial consultation. The session will be highly interactive.

To make the most of this event, it is important that a safe and transparent atmosphere is created. We ask that you maintain discretion regarding the topics discussed and attend the online meeting in an appropriate environment, preferably in a place where you will not be disturbed. If you happen to be in a room where other people are present, make sure to use headphones to maintain confidentiality.

Credits and Work units   
Many doctoral programs award credit points for participation in workshops and other qualification programs. One work unit (WU) corresponds to 45 minutes of workshop time. In some cases they might round up.  
  • 8 work units equal 0.5 credit points.  
  • For shorter workshops, credits are calculated proportionally based on the work units.  
  • Credit transfer requires the accumulation of a sufficient number of work units. 
     

Example: Participation in two workshops of three hours each result in a total of 8 work units and therefore 0,5 credit points would be granted. As the transfer of credits is decided by the doctoral programs or doctoral offices, please contact them directly with any questions in this regard.
