- Careers
In today’s episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with data stewards from the University of Vienna, who’ve created a training program with courses catering to PhD students, technical staff, and specific disciplines. The training covers general data management and specific topics such as support for particular infrastructure. And not only are they offering this training to their community, but they have taken active steps to assess the effectiveness of their training program.
Monika Bargmann is the Data Stewardess for the Faculty of Philological and Cultural Studies at the University of Vienna, Austria. Bringing people and information together and "translating" between diverse groups of stakeholders is the common thread through Monika's nearly 30 years of professional experience. Before joining the University of Vienna in June 2022, she worked as a librarian, archivist, research assistant, lecturer, data manager, and IT project coordinator. Monika holds master-level degrees in Library and Information Studies (FH Burgenland, Austria, and HBI Stuttgart, Germany) and in German Literary Studies (University of Vienna, Austria). She attended the “Data Librarian” and “Data Steward” certificate courses at the University of Vienna. Her professional passion is currently the long-term preservation of websites and web applications. Monika collects fiction with librarian characters, loves trees and forests, and is a Trekkie.
Michael Feichtinger works as a data steward at the Centre for Microbiology and Environmental Systems Science at the University of Vienna. In this role, Michael supports researchers with data management and the adoption of FAIR data practices.
Since March of 2023, Emily J. Kate has served as the Data Steward for the Faculty of Life Sciences at the University of Vienna. She holds a BA in anthropology and archaeology from the College of Wooster in Ohio and earned her MA and PhD in anthropology and demography from The Pennsylvania State University. Emily describes herself as "scientifically nosey" and enjoys connecting with scientists and developing custom solutions that meet their unique requests. In addition to helping researchers make their data management dreams come true, Emily is an avid baker and loves picnicking on the Danube with her husband, Zachary, and her perfect dog, Zoa.
