Data management planning
Data management planning is about preparing for data management in the research project and for preservation and sharing of data beyond the lifetime of the project.
You may be required to write a data management plan (DMP) or complete a section on data management and sharing as part of a grant application. The Research Councils, the European Commission, the Royal Society, the Wellcome Trust and other public and charitable funders all have DMP requirements at application and/or for awarded projects.
Where a DMP is required as part of an application, your plan will need to be reviewed by the Research Data Manager prior to submission of the application.
Further information and guidance around data management and planning can be found on the libguide.
The libguide provides guidance around research ethics and data protection.
