Research data advisors
Research data advisors (often called “data stewards” internationally) are available at all faculties at Örebro University. They provide information about and connection to data management services offered by the university, such as the legal office, IT and the library. Research data advisors can give information and feedback on data management plans, data handling procedures (including information classification and suitable ways of working with data of different levels of need of protection), collaboration with others outside the university, and archiving of a project.
The research data advisors hold lectures on data management for researchers, participate in various seminars and other instances where research data is discussed together with researchers. They offer active and personal support if a researcher has to comply with specific requirements in their research, such as providing a data management plan.
