The policy promotes transparent research processes and open access to research results and data.
The purpose of the open science policy is to:
- increase scientific impact through open access to publications and data
- guide researchers to efficient use of existing resources and tools
- ensure compliance with funding requirements, legal obligations, and ethical protocols
- make primary materials available for future research where possible
- enable Open Science through FAIR data principles
- promote visibility of the research conducted at the University of Southern Denmark
With this new policy, all researchers (including PhD students) at the Humanities are required to:
- Be registered with ORCID via Pure, and create a public ORCID profile
- Adhere to the FAIR principles and thereby aim to make data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Re-usable (in accordance with data perceptions at the Humanities)
- Have a data management plan for all projects. Principal investigators are responsible for the plan (supervisors for PhD students.
The Open Science Policy contains guidelines for these three key requirements. For further information about handling data at the Humanities, see the appendix.
