Workshop: Optimize Directory Structures for Research Data

This practical workshop, delivered by the UBC Library Research Data Management team, focuses on strategies for organizing research data using clear and logical directory structures. Designed for graduate students, researchers, and staff, the session helps participants manage files more effectively to support collaboration, reproducibility, and long-term data stewardship.

Participants will learn how to:

  • Design directory structures that reflect research workflows and support project organization
  • Implement naming and hierarchy conventions for easy navigation and version control
  • Apply best practices to maintain consistency and clarity throughout the research lifecycle
