Make your research reproducible - a hands-on course

A man stands with his back to the camera and looks at papers on the wall.

Many researchers know the feeling: when they work on their research project after not looking at it for a while (e.g. after the review), they can no longer remember how the different parts fit together. The course therefore aims to support scientists in organising their research projects in such a way that this no longer happens.

The registration deadline for the course is 11 April 2025 and registration is possible on the BERD@NFDI website.

The course is open to all researchers, preferably scientists working with business, economic and related data.

Topics include

  • Creation of FAIR and reproducible research results
  • Working on research projects in a team
  • Organisation of a research project: orderly folders, naming, documentation
  • Setting up reproducible workflows: version control with Git, stable computer environments and automation
  • Publishing platforms, licensing and more

The course is free of charge; however, participants are asked to take part in the evaluation process. It will take place online on five dates, in addition to 6 May also on 13, 20 and 27 May and 3 June, each from 16:00 to 17:30.
