The most important features at a glance

U:cris offers you various possibilities to present your scientific activities. In addition to publications and scientific activities, your third-party funded research projects implemented at the University of Vienna are also mapped in u:cris.

The most important features at a glance:

·       The most important key data of your third-party funded projects are created for you in u:cris at the start of the project. Afterwards, you can add further information yourself via the u:cris user interface in the "Projects" section (e.g. add your project website and other important information, add further project members, link publications to projects).

·       The basis of the project corner data is both the information already recorded in the u:cris database (as of 2016) and entries in SAP for externally funded research projects from 2004 to 2016.

·       Details about the criteria for documenting externally funded projects in u:cris can be found here.

·       Your publications and scientific activities are presented in the u:cris portal. Your projects can also be displayed in the u:cris portal. You yourself can decide on the visibility of all your research projects and make the desired visibility settings in the u:cris user interface.

    • Attention: In the default setting, projects are initially "confidential", i.e. not publically visible.

·       Selected information on externally funded research projects is automatically displayed publicly in the u:cris portal if this information is also published by the funding body (FWF, EU, WWTF, Jubilee Fund of the OeNB).

·       u:cris also offers you the possibility to delegate the management of the project information of your research projects to other u:cris users*. To do so, use the "Trusted Users" function.
