In the age of Big Data and AI, research does not end with publishing a paper, your data matters just as much. Funders, journals, and research institutions are increasingly asking: How is your research data managed, documented, and shared? At TU Darmstadt, this is not just a recommendation: research data management (RDM) is anchored in the doctoral regulations, and the RDM Guidelines apply to your thesis project as well.

But what does that mean for you? Which requirements are relevant in practice, and how can you meet them without getting lost in policies? And what’s behind all the talk about “FAIR data” – Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable?

In this 'Meet your Peers!' session, Jürgen Windeck (ULB) will give you a compact introduction to the most important aspects of research data management at TU Darmstadt. You’ll learn which services and tools are available to help you plan, document, store, and publish your data. Join us to find out how good data management can not only fulfill formal requirements, but also make your research more efficient, transparent, and reusable.

About 'Meet your Peers!'

'Meet your Peers!' is the perfect opportunity to be inspired, gain new perspectives and strengthen your network within the Graduate School. Whether it is about scientific content or dealing with the challenges of interdisciplinary teams – here you will find inspiration, expertise and practical insights.

An exciting impulse awaits you in every appointment:

• either from technical experts who provide practical tips for your research or
• of peers who offer valuable suggestions for "daily doing" in interdisciplinary collaboration

Participation in the event requires a doctoral project or ongoing doctoral procedure (e.g. an industrial doctorate) at TU Darmstadt in the fields of energy and the environment.
