UG Open Science Programme 2024-2026

Open Science is a global movement aimed at making scientific research and education accessible. Open practices encompass educational materials and the entire research process, creating new opportunities for interaction, collaboration and engagement between academia and society. 

The University of Groningen (UG) is committed to actively stimulating and facilitating Open Science principles among our academic community. The Open Science Programme supports the UG community in making this transition to being open.

Fundamental steps were taken during the first phase of the programme (2021-2023), such as laying a foundation for the Open Science support infrastructure, and raising interest and awareness of Open Science among researchers. The second phase of this programme, running from 2024 until 2026, will focus on making Open Science an integrated part of the research and educational culture at the UG.
