The Office of Sponsored Research & Faculty Development is committed
to assisting faculty in their pursuit of ethical research and teaching
excellence. Through oversight, the office will ensure that research
is conducted in compliance with university, local, state, federal,
and funding agency regulations.
"Integrity in research is essential for maintaining scientific
excellence and for keeping the public's trust. Integrity characterizes
both individual researchers and the intuitions in which they work....
For a scientist, integrity embodies above all the individual's
commitment to intellectual honest and personal responsibility.
It is an aspect of moral character and experience. For an institution,
it is a commitment to creating an environment that promotes responsible
conduct by embracing standards of excellence, trustworthiness,
and lawfulness and then assessing whether researchers and administrators
perceive that an environment with high levels of integrity has
been created."
