The following policy is in place to support research integrity:
Our Research Ethics Policy and Procedures applies to all staff (those undertaking research and those involved in the supervision of student research) and all undergraduate and postgraduate taught and research students undertaking research under the auspices of Health Sciences University.
This Policy is designed to provide guidance about conducting ethical research and to provide details of the Health Sciences University process and procedure for ensuring appropriate consideration and ethical approval of research by staff and students.
All researchers and research supervisors must read this Policy prior to commencement of their research.
