We support your research data management!
The Research Data Service Center supports RDM throughout the entire research process – from research project planning and application filing to the publication and archiving of research data.
We help you implement your RDM in line with the good research practice, the FAIR principles, and open science. The Service Center provides advice and designs basic, general RDM services for academics all across the University.
The Research Data Service Center is a joint initiative of the University IT and Data Center (Hochschulrechenzentrum, HRZ) and the Bonn University and State Library (Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Bonn, ULB Bonn).
