Try citizen science for yourself
A series of citizen science workshops at Masaryk University will show that almost anyone can contribute to real research — and sometimes all you need is a smartphone.
From September, the ICS MUNI is opening another run of the course Research Data Management in Practice: An Advanced Course for Data Stewards. The course will take place from 15 September to 8 December 2026 in an online format via MS Teams, every Tuesday from 17:00 to 19:00.
The course is divided into five thematic blocks (fundamentals, advanced data storage and description, automation, the human factor, and trends and the future of research data management) and combines expert topics with practical exercises. Participants will receive a micro-credential upon completion.
The course fee is CZK 18,000. More information about payment.
For participants from Masaryk University, the course is offered at a reduced price of CZK 1,000.
More information, including a brief course outline and an optional entry-level self-assessment test, is available here.
