Research integrity can be defined as the coherent and consistent adherence to a set of principles that underpin the trustworthiness and excellence of research.
This online training is part of the RMIT University’s RITE Program which aims to support and encourage research integrity, and is compulsory for all HDR candidates.
The value of research is dependent on integrity. This module introduces the principles and responsibilities of research integrity and the Australian Code for the Responsible Conduct of Research and why they matter. The module will take approximately 30 mins to complete and will require a satisfactory pass on the final assessment.
