CALL FOR CSOB PROJECTS

CALL FOR CSOB PROJECTS

At the end of 2024, the Faculty of Fisheries and Protection of Waters at the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice successfully concluded a partnership agreement with CSOB. The agreement reflects a shared commitment by both parties to promote environmental stewardship and sustainable practices across various areas of human activity. Particular emphasis is placed on supporting biodiversity, sustainable fisheries, water conservation, fish processing, and the marketing and consumption of domestic fish products.

The partnership also includes support for a scholarship program aimed at talented students. “I consider this a major achievement and a strong recognition of our work to date. Establishing cooperation on socially significant topics with such a prominent Czech banking institution as CSOB is a great success", said the Dean of the Faculty, Prof. Tomáš Policar.

As part of the agreement, the faculty has committed to developing at least six sub-projects that will address current environmental challenges and the other key areas mentioned above within the Czech Republic. “It is both a commitment and a challenge for us to contribute to fulfilling our social responsibility", added Prof. Policar. It is worth noting that communication between the two institutions had been ongoing for some time, and the signing of this agreement represents a natural outcome of that long-term dialogue. The results of this collaboration will be published on a regular basis.

Open Science at Our Faculty

What is Open Science (OS)?

Open Science is an approach to scientific work that promotes transparency, sharing, and reproducibility of research. The main goal of OS is to ensure that scientific results are accessible to the public, the scientific community, and other stakeholders.

Open Science is an umbrella term for a variety of concepts and practices that support openness in the scientific process. It includes practices that facilitate the dissemination of results and knowledge, the accumulation of scientific understanding, and the verification of conclusions, thereby enhancing the credibility of science. The main principles of Open Science are open access, open data, open methodologies, open peer review, and open education.

  • Open Access: Free and unrestricted online access to scientific publications.
  • Open Data: Sharing of research data that is freely available for further analysis and use.
  • Open Methodologies: Transparent sharing of research methods and procedures.
  • Open Peer Review: Transparent peer review processes for scientific works.
  • Open Education: Sharing of educational resources and materials.

The goal of Open Science is to enhance the transparency, reproducibility, and accessibility of scientific research for the general public.

Data Management Plan (DMP)

A Data Management Plan is a formal document that outlines how data will be managed throughout the research project lifecycle, from collection to archiving.

Main components of DMP include:

  • Purpose: Explains why specific data is needed and the questions the project addresses.
  • Definition of Data: Describes the types of data to be collected, their formats, and how they will be organized.
  • Data Collection and Access: Details how data will be collected, stored, and accessed.
  • Metadata: Contextual information that makes data understandable and usable.
  • Data Sharing and Reuse: Describes how data will be shared with other researchers and the public, including legal and ethical considerations.
  • Long-term Preservation: Plans for long-term archiving and data protection.

A DMP is a key tool to ensure that data is properly managed, protected, and prepared for future use.

How Do We Support Open Science at Our Faculty?

  • Support with Data Management Plan (DMP):

    Organizing research in accordance with OS principles. Assistance with structuring data collection, processing, and sharing. Providing training and consultations for DMP preparation based on funding agency requirements.
