UPC Policy on Research Data Management

UPC Policy on Research Data Management

The Governing Council of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) approved at the end of 2025 the research data management regulations. The document defines the obligations and responsibilities regarding UPC research data and that of its research staff: 

  • Collect and organise data responsibly, in accordance with ethical principles and the protection of personal data.
  • Prepare the Data Management Plan and deposit it in UPCommons.
  • Store the data in secure environments.
  • Publish the data following the FAIR principles, in trusted repositories such as CORA.RDR. 
  • Report in DRAC the datasets published in repositories.
When research involves the use of personal data or experimentation with people, the Ethics Committee must evaluate the research project ex ante and issue a favourable opinion.

CSUC Training on Amnesia

CSUC Training on Amnesia


The Consorci de Serveis Universitaris de Catalunya (CSUC) has scheduled some training sessions in Spanish throughout 2026 on the Amnesia data anonymisation tool by OpenAIRE.


Data anonymisation with Amnesia: a practical case:
  • 17.06.26 from 13–14:30 h
  • 22.10.26 from 16–17:30 h



Amnesia operates entirely locally, without transmitting any data over the Internet. This ensures maximum data security and removes administrative barriers associated with sharing personal or sensitive information. Amnesia provides easy pseudonymisation. Pseudonymisation is a de-identification method that removes or replaces direct identifiers (names, IDs, phone numbers, etc.) from a set of sensitive data (medical records, prescriptions, financial information, online surveys, workplace files, etc.). The resulting data are still considered personal under the GDPR, but the risk of re-identification is significantly reduced.
