Academic Integrity
The integrity and reliability of academic research are of fundamental importance to the University. All parties, both within the University and outside, must be able to have confidence that our research is conducted in a scrupulous, fair, verifiable, impartial and independent manner. To make sure you receive appropriate training regarding academic integrity, you are required to follow a Scientific Conduct course.
Scientific Conduct Course
A number of cases of scientific fraud and misconduct were bad publicity for the scientific world. Are these cases signs of a system in crisis or just some anomalies in an otherwise good scientific framework? The course ‘Scientific Conduct for PhDs’ will give attention to the grey area and your role as an individual scientist to prevent misconduct. Please also see the information on required coursework.
Code of Conduct
