It is in this context that the INTEGRITY project is established, seeking to empower students for Responsible Research Conduct (RCR) through evidence-based, scaffolded learning. INTEGRITY is a consortium of 11 European partners led by the University of Utrecht.

INTEGRITY will combine high quality training in research integrity with innovative modes of engagement in order to bring ethics alive, thereby equipping the next generation of researchers with the capabilities to conduct research in a responsible manner and to address new and unforeseen research challenges.

 

The project will develop an evidence-based analysis of student needs, blind-spots, and expectations regarding research integrity across 9 European countries. It will also map, categorize and analyse current teaching in research integrity to better detect and mitigate gaps in teaching, and to help build tailor-made curricula for students in the whole range of research areas and in three levels of studies.

 

INTEGRITY will also develop a teaching philosophy on RCR that takes capacity building of students as its main aim, using three core values (Transparency, Honesty and Responsibility) and incorporating the ‘QRP’ approach and FFP topics.

 

The INTEGRITY project connects 11 European partners from 9 countries. The funding period for the project started at the beginning of 2019. The total funding for the 3-year project is worth 2.4 million euros.

 

Our research is conducted according to current GDPR regulations and assessed (if necessary) by local ethics committees. A DPO officer has been appointed for the consortium at the coordinating university.
