Workshops

Good scientific practice wants to be practiced

Workshops

What are the workshops
of the OeAWI about?

The Austrian Agency for Research Integrity believes that active and reflective engagement is the most promising way to both preventing questionable and unacceptable research practices or research misconduct and raising awareness.

The Workshops are designed to teach the fundamentals of research integrity, the grey areas of research („sloppy science“), and the

avoidance of research misconduct in an interactive and discursive manner. The workshops of the OeAWI rely on well-tried didactic methods and apply the current state of research to the promotion of Good Scientific Practice.

Depending on your requirements, the workshops can be held in German or English.
