Research Data Management

Research Data Management (RDM) underpins research excellence. It concerns the organisation of data throughout the research cycle. A full explanation is in the Making the Case for Research Data Management briefing paper.

Good research data management covers a project from conception to delivery. It enables staff and students to meet the requirements of our Research Data Management Policy, research funders and legislation. 

Under our RDM policy, staff and researchers should deposit all research data into RaYDaR.
