Scientific integrity is essential for scientific knowledge to advance, citizens to have trust in the scientific enterprise, science to usefully inform public policy, and scientists to have professional and positive careers. Issues in scientific integrity include scientific misconduct, provenance of data and samples, ethical decision-making, responsible fieldwork, and more. In this course we will examine contemporary issues in scientific integrity, using general standards, disciplinary-specific codes of conduct, and individual case studies.
Our objectives are to describe the many issues surrounding scientific integrity, understand their sources and implications, and apply these insights to the preparation of scientific and professional careers.
