Open Science Competence Center at the Gdansk University of Technology Library in numbers

Bridge of Data project at Gdańsk University of Technology (GUT) was established to support researchers in their activities regarding different layers of Open Science.  The project is unique in this part of Central and Eastern Europe. It involves three Pomeranian universities: Gdańsk University of Technology (leader), University of Gdańsk, and Gdańsk Medical University. 

 Open Science Competence Center is the separate contact point that offers help and supporting services for “sharing” research culture. The Center provides various training, consultancies, and other events promoting the idea of opening science and try to popularize its benefits such as broader collaboration, increasing usage and citations, faster impact, or greater public engagement.
