Event Details
The Data Science Institute, in collaboration with the Library’s Open Research team, are showcasing the Data Engineering theme by hosting a one-day funding application workshop. The day will offer a crash course in all the application essentials from proposals, data management plans, to data ethics and how to embed sustainable practices in your projects.
Through a mixture of talks and hands-on workshops, the day will provide researchers with practice advice for applying for large grants for data-driven projects from the UK’s major funding bodies such as UKRI research councils and the Wellcome Trust. Brining together support from Research Services, the Library, and the Reimagining Research Practices project, this workshop would be particularly suited to those seeking to those applying for a large grant for the first time. There will also be opportunities to network with colleagues across the university in the field of data science and AI.
