- The Scope and purpose of the policy
- The aim of the MSA university Research Ethics policy is to encourage a high quality research and to enterprise culture, with the highest possible standards of integrity and practice. The policy applies to all disciplines and research activities within the University, or sub-contracted on its behalf.
- All staff and students are expected to act ethically when engaged in university research. Any research involving animals, human participants, human tissue or the collection of data on individuals requires ethical consideration. The university recognizes that it has a duty of care towards all members affected by the research activities; the university also recognizes that it has a duty of care to its own staff, and that this includes the avoidance of harm to those undertaking the research.
