UT Faculty Assume Leadership Roles Promoting Responsible Conduct of Research
|
The promotion and support of a research culture that prizes integrity is a responsibility shared by all members of UT’s research community. All UT faculty and staff engaged in or supporting research, scholarship, or creative activities must be deeply committed to discouraging and preventing unethical conduct, making responsible choices when faced with ethical dilemmas in research, promoting accepted practices for conducting research, and equipping ourselves, as well as our students and postdoctoral trainees, with the knowledge necessary to comply with regulations, policies, statutes, and guidelines governing the responsible conduct of research (RCR).
A number of faculty leaders work selflessly with UT administrators to ensure that these programs strengthen our RCR culture and provide researchers with the knowledge and tools they need to conduct research to the highest ethical standards.
