In the RDM@KIT team, different service units of KIT cooperate across institutes. The common focus is to establish the topic of research data management at KIT. We offer assistance in all phases of research data management, ranging from the development and operation of supporting tools to personal consultation. An initial overview is provided by our flyer.

To contact us please get in touch with us at: contact∂rdm.kit.edu

If you are interested in training on research data management, you can put together a tailor-made training course via the RDMToolKIT.

The RDM Forum offers another KIT-internal exchange and networking format for KIT researchers. The next RDM-Forum will take place in fall 2025

The RDM@KIT team is a member of international research data networks. The network includes both, external partner institutions as well as cooperative structures.

 

Members

The KIT Library and the Scientific Computing Center (SCC) form the leadership of the RDM@KIT team

The KIT Library advises and supports scientists, e.g. in the preparation of a data management plan (DMP), the allocation of licenses, the preparation of metadata, the search for suitable repositories to store research data, or the development of repositories. As KIT's computer center, the SCC provides an infrastructure for the storage of research data within the research data life cycle. The mission to store data within the LSDF and especially to store research data for institutions in Baden-Württemberg in bwDataArchive is focused on bitstream preservation.

The Digital Office guides KIT in digitalization, generally evaluates the possibilities and benefits of digitalization for KIT, and drives it forward. The Digital Office advises and supports KIT‘s management level in its responsibility in this regard. As part of the STAB staff unit, it is directly assigned to the President and CIO / CDO and supports both in their responsibility for developing and implementing the digitalization strategy within the framework of the Overarching KIT 2025 Strategy. FOR is the central contact for the acquisition of research funds. Advice is provided for scientists on funding programmes and instruments of the DFG, the federal government, the state, foundations, Helmholtz Association, the EU and other international funding agencies. Furthermore FOR informs about requirements and specifications regarding research data management set by third-party funders for research proposals. The service unit IRM is the central partner for KIT employees, the protectability of research data and their commercialization. IRM's broad range of support services for employees extends to all aspects of modern technology transfer, from inventor consulting and technology marketing, financing of transfer projects to licensing. KIT Archive serves as long-term memory of the institution. This comprises information about the structure of research projects, terms of cooperation and the use of research data.
