RDM Platform Coscine – More Than Free Quota
On 25 August 2025, an online workshop on Coscine will take place from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. The research data platform supports researchers in managing their data in a structured manner, creating projects and storing data securely – and much more than just storage space.
In the workshop, which is part of the modular advanced training series RDM II, participants will learn in a practical way how they can use Coscine to make research data findable, accessible and sustainable in accordance with the FAIR criteria (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable).
The workshop is aimed at doctoral candidates, postdocs and research assistants who would like to deepen their knowledge of research data management.
Prerequisite is basic knowledge of research data management, which can be acquired, for example, in the Moodle course ‘Research Data Management – an Overview (RDM I – online)’.
Participation is free of charge. Registration is via the RWTH Single Sign-On or externally. The access link will be sent by email approximately three days before the event begins.
Accessibility is guaranteed. If you require assistance, please contact veranstaltungsmanagementpe@rwth-aachen.de.
Further information about the event can be found on the RDM website of RWTH Aachen University.
