Research Integrity

High-quality research relies on the professional way in which our researchers conduct themselves and their research endeavours.

The ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥ expects all researchers associated with our institution to abide by the basic principles of Honesty, Rigour, Transparency, Fairness, Respect, Recognition, Accountability and Promotion as outlined in theÌýÌý(the 'Code').

Researchers are required to:

  • support a culture of responsible research;
  • comply with relevant laws, regulation guidelines and policies;
  • apply ethical principles and meet relevant ethical standards;
  • use appropriate methods;
  • retain research records appropriately;
  • disseminate research findings and involvement of others accurately;
  • disclose conflicts of interest; and
  • report suspected breaches.

The ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥ has formally adopted the Code through itsÌýResponsible Conduct of Research PolicyÌýand is developing a suite of policies to support the specific responsibilities outlined in the Code.
