Imagine having an online profile containing details of all aspects of the work your research degree students undertake during their studies. A profile which can record:

• Publications
• Datasets
• Activities (participation at conferences, awards received,  public engagement)
• Press coverage
• Final thesis

Creating a profile in Discovery provides your students with a “shop window” to display all aspects of work undertaken for their degree, which can be used to create a C.V, as well as keeping the information to hand for University records.

Ask your RPG students to contact the Research Services team of the Library and Learning Centre at discovery@dundee.ac.uk for further details.
