本声明涉及到正确进行研究的问题，并就预期的标准提供指导.

它适用于所有研究人员(这里定义为所有员工), 荣誉的员工, students and visiting workers undertaking research within or on behalf of the University). Student research misconduct will be dealt with via the student disciplinary procedures, and staff research misconduct via the Policy and Procedure for Investigating Allegations of 研究 Misconduct.

Within this over arching framework there may be specific discipline requirements in areas such as ethics, 临床治理, 数据保护, 法律要求, 内政部和其他政府要求, in addition to health and safety and other good laboratory practice requirements. 某些学科也可能受制于外部资助机构或专业团体的具体良好实践要求.

这所大学已经签署了 支持研究人员职业发展的协约 which governs working practices, roles and responsibilities of research staff. The University's named contact for 科研诚信 is the PVC for 研究 Strategy & 资源.

正直诚实

1.研究人员在自己的研究行为和对其他研究人员行为的回应方面应该诚实和道德. 这适用于所有的研究工作, 包括实验设计, 生成和分析数据, acting as a reviewer or referee on grant applications or research papers etc, 申请资助, 发布结果, 感谢同事们的直接和间接贡献, 合作者和其他人.
