Incorporating Open Science principles in your PhD trajectory

This course will introduce Open Science (OS) practices and how it can strengthen one’s research trajectory already during the PhD. The course will demonstrate how the incorporation of OS practices is supplemental to one’s research activities, rather than additional work.

During the course, you will explore OS principles and discuss the benefits of making scientific research more transparent, inclusive, and collaborative. You will learn best-practices to implement OS practices, such as submitting a pre-registration on OSF, and map how OS practices can be implemented into one’s research trajectory.

Format and dates:

The course consists of two 2h sessions:

• Fall 2026: November 6th and November 20th (13:00-15:00)
• Spring 2027: March 12th and March 26th (13:00-15:00)

Learning goals:

By the end of the course, you will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to contribute to the research community and advocate for openness in your respective fields. 

• Introduction to Open Science practices
• Recognise the benefits of incorporating OS practices into research practices
• Create a roadmap of one’s (proposed) PhD research incorporating OS

GREAT THAT YOU WANT TO ENROLL
