Research data management practices at Universities of Applied Sciences in Germany

The presentation highlights the main findings of the study "Development and Dissemination of Research Data Management at Universities of Applied Sciences" (EVER_FDM), with special regard to the needs of the researchers. Thus, it will be particularly beneficial for people working in the universities' administration and other professionals in the RDM support. They will also be offered an evaluation of promising measures to support the change in research culture and practice towards more open and reusable sharing of research data. From the results, it will become clear that awareness of RDM is still low amongst researchers at Universities of Applied Sciences in Germany.
