Research Essentials: Copyright for HDR Students
As you move from undergraduate study into higher degree research, copyright takes on a new significance and its impact on your work changes. This session will strengthen your understanding of what copyright is and how it is applied, how it affects the gathering and use of resources for your research, and the key considerations involved in sharing your thesis or other research outputs. We will look at third-party works, fair dealing, copyright management plans, obtaining permission, open access, and Research Bank. We'll also cover important copyright issues to keep in mind when using AI tools in your research.
We look forward to seeing you in our sessions this semester!
