RESEARCH IDENTITY
Build Your Global Research Identity
SwissEU™ encourages research-active learners to build a professional research identity that extends beyond a single programme, institution or country.
Through the use of an ORCID iD, learners can create a persistent research profile that helps connect their scholarly identity with publications, affiliations, qualifications and other research activities throughout their academic and professional journey.
Your research may evolve. Your research identity stays with you.
ORCID™
Why ORCID Matters
A Unique Research Identity
Every ORCID iD is unique to the individual researcher.
This helps distinguish your scholarly work from that of other researchers and reduces ambiguity caused by similar names, different naming conventions or changes in affiliation.
Connect Your Research Record
An ORCID record can bring together information about your academic and research activities within one structured profile.
Research outputs such as journal articles, datasets, conference contributions and other scholarly works may be connected to your ORCID record.
Improve Attribution & Discoverability
Using an ORCID iD can help ensure that scholarly outputs are more accurately attributed to the correct researcher.
It also helps research systems, publishers and other organisations connect your identity with your contributions more consistently.
Take It Across Your Career
Your ORCID iD belongs to you.
It can remain with you as you move between institutions, employers, countries or fields of research.
This makes ORCID particularly valuable for internationally mobile learners, researchers and professionals.
