Is this course right for me?

Target Audience: Anyone looking to enhance their own, or others' practice, especially researchers and academics in Social Sciences, Humanities and the Arts for People and the Economy (SHAPE disciplines)

This is a live on-line event.

If you ask any researcher whether they are conducting their work in accordance with the highest standards of integrity, the great majority would rightly answer positively. And some might add the qualifier, 'as far as I know!” And yet, there are still occasional cases where researchers have, knowingly or not, committed a breach of such standards. 

This highly interactive workshop is suitable for those looking to enhance their own professional knowledge and conduct, and those involved in helping maintain the conduct of others. We introduce the subject in a highly interactive manner. We won’t be dispensing one-size fits-all, definitive answers but, together, we will be exploring some of the fundamentals and applying them to your experiences and situation, making it as practical and specific as we can. 

The overall aim is to make this subject a lively and vital part of research; drawing the links between the everyday conduct of what you do, your efficacy as a researcher and the sustainability of a research career. 

Objectives; 

• Considered the scope and severity of breaches of research integrity 
• Explored the pressures that can lead to breaches 
• Devised ways of alleviating those pressures and responding to breaches 
• Discussed these in relation to your, and Strathclyde's practice

Please note that this workshop will run in collaboration with the British Academy Early-Career Researcher Network. If you are a member of the Network, it is recommended that you register for the workshop through their booking page here.
