The UNH Responsible Conduct of Research and Scholarly Activity (RCR) Committee offers training in the ethical and responsible conduct of research three times a year; January/February, May, and September/October.

This training opportunity involves two components:

• Completion of UNH’s Web-based program of RCR instruction (available at http://www.unh.edu/rcr), followed by
• Participation in a 3.5 hour seminar.  The next seminar will be held on Friday, October 4, 2013 12:30-4:00 p.m. in MUB 330/332.  

Modules must have been completed prior to participation in the seminar. Successful completion of the training requires completion of both components.

This training is open to any member of the UNH community. While it is primarily directed at postdoctoral researchers, graduate students, and undergraduate students, faculty and staff are invited to participate.

Registration for the seminar is required; registration, however, is closed at this time. 

The training will fulfill:

1. The National Science Foundation (NSF) mandate that all postdoctoral researchers, and undergraduate and graduate students supported by NSF to conduct research on proposals submitted on or after January 4, 2010 receive appropriate training in the ethical and responsible conduct of research (see http://www.unh.edu/research/nsf-rcr-training-requirement). 
2. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) RCR requirement (see http://www.unh.edu/research/usda-nifa-rcr-training-requirement).
