RDM for students
For students, working with data often raises questions about how to properly handle data. What legal and ethical concerns should be taken into account when re-using or collecting data? How can standardized file names and folder structures prevent chaos in large amounts of data? What does FAIR actually mean? And: What should be considered when storing data? With our workshops and materials on RDM for Students, we will help you find answers to these questions.
In the UB|SchreibCamp, we offer workshops for students in each semester.
In addition, courses and materials from the project FDM@Studium.nrw will allow students to gain an overview of the field of research data management through self-guided study.
Your upgrade for academic work and writing projects!
In the SchreibCamp of the university library Duisburg-Essen, you can take a deep dive into all topics relating to academic work and exchange ideas with others.
The program of the one-week event includes planning, citation, literature management and tips on Word, LaTex and other tools. And, of course, it's also about how to handle data. Experts from the Research Data Services will offer workshops on all aspects of research data management for students.
The next UB|SchreibCamp will take place in the week from 1 September to 5 September 2025 in the LK Library on the Duisburg campus.
In the project FDM@Studium.nrw, the DataCampus of the University Library Duisburg-Essen, in collaboration with the Landesinitiative für Forschungsdatenmanagement – fdm.nrw, the University of Wuppertal and the Cologne University of Applied Sciences, has created courses for students and teaching materials for lecturers about RDM. All courses are made available as Open Educational Resources (OER) via the state portal ORCA.nrw.
