Title: Introduction to Open Science for PhD students
Abstract: Early career researchers face a rapidly changing scholarly publication and funding landscape with increasing expectations on open publication and transparent research practices from universities, funders and publishers. To help and encourage doctoral students to navigate the open science landscape we designed an Open Science course (5 ECTS) which was offered for the first time in the spring of 2021, with the aim of giving PhD students in the human and natural sciences essential skills in good research data management and open access publication routes for both articles, books and data.
