Module 4.2: Research Integrity - 08 October 2024

11:00am Tuesday, 8 October 2024
2:30pm Tuesday, 8 October 2024
Module - online meeting

Time listed as AEST (April to September) or AEDT (October to March)

This module will focus on the principles that underpin the policies, processes, and procedures that govern responsible conduct of research. It will look at the ways in which your role as a research administrator or manager relates to research integrity and what to do if you are faced with a research integrity challenge. Importantly, the module will also cover how research managers and administrators can play a role in strengthening an organisation’s culture of research integrity.

This module looks at the principles of research integrity, the theory and practice of responsible conduct of research, the cultures of research integrity and how these are built and assessed, processes for investigating breaches of research integrity and allegations of research misconduct and the importance of research integrity for research managers.

It covers the emerging international Responsible Conduct of Research Codes, the Australian Code for Responsible Conduct of Research and examines institutional requirements of education, implementation, compliance and monitoring. Case studies provide opportunities for participants to discuss how responsible research practices can be implemented and how research management professionals might contribute to good cultures rather than being seen as playing merely a compliance role.
