Concept of the Data Competence Centre HERMES - Humanities Education in Research, Data, and Methods
In the conception phase for the establishment of the HERMES Data Competence Centre, the IEG, together with the collaborative partners, is designing learning opportunities, research activities and networking formats to meet the need for education, training and continuing education, practice-oriented consultancy and interdisciplinary networking in the field of research in the humanities and cultural sciences as well as in nearby application-oriented fields of activity (especially in GLAM institutions).Through the joint establishment of a data competence centre at the interface of innovative digital methods and sustainable data curatorial practice, HERMES functions as a cross-locational network anchored in the federal states of Hesse and Rhineland-Palatinate that bundles the existing complementary expertise of the supporting institutions at (real and virtual) teaching, research and networking locations, creates a framework for the innovative application and further development of data science methods in the humanities and cultural studies, and contributes to the establishment of a critical data culture in the participating disciplines.
