Description

“The presentation highlights the role of Universities of Applied Sciences (UAS) in research and their potential for the development of a National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI). To address the growing need for structured research data management (RDM) at UASs, the FDM@HAW network has emerged as a potential connector between NFDI and UAS landscape. It aims to raise awareness of NFDI services across a diverse UAS network, and articulate UAS-specific requirements back to NFDI. In doing so, it strengthens mutual integration and fosters targeted support. […] In line with NFDI’s mission to “improv[e] the possibilities for using data for science and society” (https://www.nfdi.de/association/?lang=en, April 16, 2025), FDM@HAW seeks to disseminate knowledge of and strengthen competence in delving into these possibilities. The network provides valuable support to activate a target group that has largely been untapped. Close cooperation between NFDI and FDM@HAW will then contribute to the successful development of a nationwide RDM ecosystem. In the presentation, proposals for cooperation will be outlined.” (cf. the CoRDI submission abstract “The Role of Universities of Applied Sciences in the Development of a National Research Data Infrastructure”,  https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.16735972)
