Design Thinking for Researchers
DESIGN THINKING AND AGILE METHODS FOR RESEARCH PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Thursday, July 15, 2021, 10:00 AM - 9:00 PM (UTC+02:00)
Fiscal Host: Access 2 Perspectives
About
Scientists often run three or more highly complex projects in parallel. On top of that, a growing number of publishers and funding agencies require scientists to make their raw data available upon publication according to the four foundational principles – Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability (FAIR). To ensure goal-oriented and time-efficient research project management across the team, this workshop discusses selected established as well as emerging tools and techniques complementing the basic principles of classical project management. Applied methodologies will draw from proven design thinking and agile approaches such as Kanban and the Project Design Canvas. The workshop is taught by Dr Jo Havemann (Access 2 Perspectives).
