Responsible Conduct in Research and Scholarship

Catalog description

Loyola University actively promotes a culture of responsible and ethical behaviors among all people associated with the University. This includes the LUC faculty, staff, and students of all levels. This course provides students with a strong foundation of the basic ethical principles and professional standards that can then be built upon by future experiences. Topics include the nine identified by Office of Research Integrity critical to research activities as well as those of value to scholars here at LUC. Taught over a three day period, students will be presented with information and relevant background and given the opportunity to apply these ethical principles in a small group setting. NOTE: This course satisfies the LUC policy requirements for students that are enrolled in graduate programs, undergraduate students that are involved in research activities, and faculty and staff that receive funds from external agencies that require evidence of ethics training.
