Dealing with Data

We all have to deal with data in our doctoral studies in a variety of shapes and forms.  This session is designed to offer support prior to the submission of the RF2 (or Prof Doc equivalent) stage of the doctoral lifecycle.  It will focus on the preparation of your Data Management Plan and talk you through the open access of data agenda, with a focus on SHURDA.  The session will also include a discussion of good practice when working with different types and sources of data.  The aim is to prepare you for the storage, analysis and presentation of data with an opportunity to draw on a range of transferable experiences from researchers working with data across fields and disciplines.  Our indicative focus will encompass: secondary data; qualitative and quantitative data; online data; visual data.  The session will end with a ‘data think tank’ where you will have the opportunity to share common issues or challenges and draw on the expertise of our invited researcher speakers.
