Open science at UiT

Open science deals with open, often defined as free and open, access to scientific research for the whole society. Open science includes not only open publications and open research data, but also other elements such as software, source code, methodology, peer review and teaching resources. Open science contributes to making research results available, and to make the research process itself more transparent and verifiable.

UiT agrees with the Research Council's and the EU's objectives and guidelines for the management of research data; “Open as standard” and “As open as possible, as closed as necessary”.

UiT has several support and infrastructure services for open science. Watch this video to learn more about open science at UiT.
