Ground Rules
If you receive a UROP grant, you must conduct your research before you graduate. After you conclude your project, UROP requires that you complete an evaluation form and submit a brief report on your research.
If you wish to receive academic credit for research, please make arrangements through your department; UROP cannot award credit. However, even if you do not receive academic credit for research, your project must be worthy of the standards that apply to coursework.
UROP expects you to conduct research with integrity and respect for the standards of ethical and professional behavior. Academic and financial fraud (which includes data fabrication or falsification and theft of materials, supplies, or ideas), plagiarism, or deliberate interference with the integrity of the work of others is not acceptable.
The University has a policy on misconduct in scholarly activity, including research. If you have questions on how the University defines such misconduct, please check with your faculty mentor and refer to the following information online: usnholpm.unh.edu/UNH/II.Acad/C.htm.
