UQ Research Data Manager

Provides information about how to use the UQ Research Data Manager (UQRDM) to store and manage research data for research projects.

Supervisor support for HDRs

HDR supervisors can support their students in a number of ways:

  • Encourage HDRs to store their thesis research data on UQRDM and avoid high risk options such as external hard drives or laptops.
  • Communicate how you expect UQRDM to be used, and how files will be shared and accessed.
  • Let them know what storage allocation types are required, and what data will be stored in each allocation (if more than one).
  • Promptly approve and action any project records or other activities in UQRDM, to avoid issues with thesis submission later on.
  • Do not create UQRDM project record for your students, your student needs to create the project record using their student account.
  • Actively manage the thesis dashboard for your HDR, assigning examiners and Chairs and providing feedback
