RAC 601 - Introduction to Research Compliance, Ethics and Integrity (3 Credits)

Prerequisite: None
This course will provide students with a historical perspective of research compliance regulations and ethical standards and introduce them to: regulations and ethics surrounding human and animal subject research; biosafety issues; export control requirements; conflicts of interest; responsible conduct of research; and research integrity. The course will provide an understanding of how all of these elements come together within the research enterprise, and how to manage related non-compliance. The course will also examine how regulatory and ethical oversight of research conducted solely within the United States may differ from similar oversight of global research collaborations.
