The articles should be made open in one of the following ways:

1. by publishing articles in the Open Access journals,
2. by self-archiving articles e.g. in an institutional repository  (ACRIS in Aalto University)
   • Embargoes (publication delay periods) for the opening of publications is allowed
     • Humanities and social sciences: 12 months
     • Other fields: 6 months 

It is not recommended to publish in hybrid open access journals in which some of the articles are opened by paying the article processing charge (APC).   

Please also note

• The project research plan must include a publication plan in which Open Access publishing is taken into account
• Publication costs are not eligible costs in the project planning stage as they are now already included in the overhead cost multiplier for Aalto researchers.
  • If you have questions regarding this, please contact the Grant Advisor(s) in your school.

• It is recommended to provide access to research material (e.g., research data) considering the legal framework and agreements.
• Data management plan (DMP) must be included to the research plan.
