As
part of the RIS Synergy project, an online questionnaire has been prepared on whether a National Research Portal in Austria
could be supportive for one's activities in the field of research.
The
RIS Synergy
project is a BMBWF/Austrian Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research funded project under the 'Digitaleund soziale
Transformation in der Hochschulbildung' 2020 call with 14 Austrian universities and four funding agencies as partners.
The
Angewandte is part of the consortium.
RIS Synergy is aiming to reduce the administrative
burden of research projects, improve data quality through better exchange of research data and metadata between research institutions
and funding bodies, while ensuring data standards (see
https://forschungsdaten.at/en/ris/).
In addition, RIS Synergy is preparing a
concept study that will outline framework conditions
and requirements for a national research portal. National research portals bundle research metadata from participating institutions
so that information such as publications, research projects or experts can be offered as services. In this way, Austria could
follow many European and international examples and increase the visibility of national research as well as strengthen research
support and research infrastructures.
We kindly invite you to take part in the online questionnaire
until 30.6.2023 for the (anonymous) survey of information, service and tool needs for a possible national research portal:https://survey.it.tuwien.ac.at/index.php/428162?lang=de
Please note that the online questionnaire is only available in German.
(approx. 10-15 min.; this link to the online questionnaire
is also available at
https://forschungsdaten.at/en/, with further information).
If you have any questions, please contact Helga Aichmaier (
