Welcome to DARMA!
Danish Association of Research Managers and Administrators
The purpose of DARMA is to support Danish research through the professionalisation of research management and administration (RMA). DARMA has been active in establishing RMA as a recognised profession in Denmark and works continuously on developing the profession because excellent science requires excellent research management and administration.
DARMA is relevant for any individual with a professional interest in support, administration, and management of research, who wishes to increase or improve their professional skills and build networks with dedicated colleagues and peers in Denmark and around the world.
DARMA is driven by volunteer engagement by members who engage themselves in topics relevant to their employment elsewhere. Most employers regards volunteering and engaging in DARMA’s activities as very relevant and count the time spent on this as working hours.
To attend DARMA’s events you must be a member – sign up below. If you want to volunteer contact the board or the contact person of any relevant Special Interest Group.
