Cost calculation

Cost calculation

Various costs may be arising in the course of research data management. It makes sense to estimate these in advance and, if necessary, request funds for specific items in the research proposal.

 

Following costs can arise:

- Personnel costs (position specifically for data management possible)

- Material costs (e.g. hardware, software)

- Service costs (e.g. publication fees, training, long-term archiving, legal advice)

- Overhead costs (costs related to the provision of infrastructure)
