Responsible Research + Scholarly Integrity

The university’s Scholarly Integrity Policy clarifies the responsibilities and standards required of all UBC persons engaged in scholarly activity. 

At UBC, the responsible conduct of research includes, but also goes beyond, these requirements in building a community that embraces best practices in research and the values of honesty, accountability, openness and fairness in the search for and dissemination of knowledge.
