How do I correctly cite my UHasselt affiliation in a publication or dataset?
In order for your publication/dataset to be more easily recognized as being from Hasselt University and hence in order to get your publications/datasets validated correctly, we recommend following the guidelines below:
1. Always mention UHasselt first, and then the name of your faculty, research institute, research group or research unit. This rule also applies to research done in the disciplines of the tUL programs.
