Why a Data
Management Plan?

YOU may need a Data Management Plan because:
  • Your grant funding agency requires one.
  • You want your data to be well-organized during and after your research project.
  • You want other researchers to be able to discover and reuse your data.
  • You want your data to be preserved and archived.
Currently, the following agencies require a data management plan as part of the grant proposal:
  • National Science Foundation (NSF)
  • National Institutes of Health (NIH)
  • National Endowment for the Humanities Office of Digital Humanities (NEH ODH)
Per a February 22, 2013 White House memo, all Federal funding agencies will soon require a data management plan as part of the grant proposal.
