Research Data Management

Welcome to the UWTSD guide to Research Data Management.

If you are starting a new research project, you will need to consider how best to manage your research data.  Effective research data management is an essential part of all good research, whether funded by an external sponsor or unfunded.

Research Data Management Policy

The UWTSD Research Data Management Policy sets out the responsibilities at individual and institutional level which should guide the work of those involved in research data collection, curation, storage and maintenance. It sets out the basis on which the University’s staff and postgraduate research students will process any personal data collected from data subjects in the course of conducting research.  The policy seeks to ensure that research data produced by the University’s staff and postgraduate research students will be managed to the highest standards throughout the research data lifecycle in line with relevant legislation.
