Research project and public support of science and research

Information resources for research at SU SBA, grant and project opportunities, project application processing and its requirements, research community and databases, researcher identifiers, scientometrics, citation system.

Research projects:

At SBA it is possible to get involved in several internal and external projects. It is advisable to consult the engaging in the project with the Vice-Dean for science and research, supervisor or Head of Department. The most appropriate way for students to get involved is through the Student Grant Competititon (SGS) project:

External projects are mainly project of Czech Science Foundation (https://gacr.cz/en/) or Technology agency (https://www.tacr.cz/en/), where the student is usually involved as a member of the research team:

Researcher identifier

For scientists, it is appropriate to use scientist identifiers or scientific social networks. I recommend setting up an ORCID identifier, which is often requested when publishing in journals or appropriate to include with a CV. 

ORCID = Open Researcher and Contributor IDentifier

ORCID is a non-profit, community-driven effort to create and maintain a registry of unique researcher identifiers
and a transparent method of linking research activities and outputs to these identifiers.

As a scientific social network is often used e.g. ResearchGate:

Research community and databases

The most important are the databases Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus. Scopus and Web of Science are the largest worldwide-used citation databases.
