Framework</h1> <p>The University of Nottingham’s Ethical Framework comprises a comprehensive set of principles, structures, policies and procedures which together demonstrate the ethical standards that the University sets across all of its activities.</p> <p>The Nolan Principles set out seven Principles of Public Life expected of all public office holders. The University expects all of its staff and students to follow the ethical behaviours set out in the Nolan Principles.  Those are: selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness, honesty and leadership.  These Principles underlie the University's Ethical Framework and are incorporated into each of the relevant policies of which it is formed.</p> <p>A set of principles frame the University's Global Strategy 2020 and range from putting students at the heart of the University and focussing on quality and excellence and valuing and promoting equality and diversity to taking an international view and enriching our heritage.  To deliver on these principles, the University is focussed on the way it works with students, enhancing research, partnerships and international endeavours.  Implicit in all of these is a strong ethical underpinning.</p> <p>This Framework has been developed by University Executive Board in part as a response to the findings of Lord Woolf’s investigation into the LSE’s links with Libya.  The University of Nottingham’s Ethical Framework does not follow all of Lord Woolf’s recommendations; in particular the University does not intend to establish an over-arching ethics committee.  Rather we see the University Executive Board continuing to play the central oversight role in relation to ethical issues and being responsible for the operation and review of this Ethical Framework.</p> <p>Whilst the Ethical Framework covers all of the University’s operations, including at the University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus and the University of Nottingham Ningbo, China, some minor variations in procedures do exist where required by the different legal jurisdictions.</p> <p>The following structures and procedures demonstrate how the University's ethical standards are to be met consistently across all its activities. It is not an exhaustive list but rather covers the most relevant policies and procedures:</p> <h2>Research</h2> <ul> <li>There is a comprehensive <a title="Code of Research Conduct and Research Ethics" class="sys_16" href="https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/research/ethics-and-integrity/index.aspx">Code of Research Conduct and Research Ethics</a> which covers, <em>inter alia</em>: responsibilities of researchers; use of personal and research data; confidentiality; publications and dissemination of research; Intellectual Property; supervision arrangements; safeguarding of vulnerable groups; conflicts of interest; ethics committees; covert research; consent; adverse event reporting; and links to other codes and procedures.</li> <li>Processes for ethical review are overseen by the University <a title="Research Integrity and Ethics Committee" class="sys_16" href="http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/governance/universitycommittees/research-ethics.aspx">Research Integrity and Ethics Committee</a> with Terms of Reference which include: defining the University's research integrity and research ethics policy; establishing the University's process and procedures for providing oversight of research integrity and ethical review; providing quality assurance of such procedures; ensuring and monitoring best practice of research integrity and research ethics across the University; advising the Research Committee on research integrity and research ethics components of the <em>Code of Research Conduct and Research Ethics,</em> and legal and statutory requirements; and championing the embedding of a culture of research integrity and good practice across all areas of the University. The Committee reports to Senate and provides regular updates to Research Committee.</li> <li>There are robust procedures for dealing with research misconduct: <a title="Staff Discipline Regulations" class="sys_16" href="http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/hr/guidesandsupport/performanceatwork/disciplinaryprocedures/documents/disciplinary-procedure.pdf">Staff Discipline Regulations</a>; <a class="sys_16" href="http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/academicservices/qualitymanual/assessmentandawards/academic-misconduct.aspx">Academic Misconduct Policy</a>; <a title="Fraud Policy" class="sys_16" href="http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/governance/documents/fraud.pdf">Fraud Policy</a>; and the new <a title="Code of Practice on Handling Allegations of Research Misconduct" class="sys_16" href="https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/research/ethics-and-integrity/index.aspx">Code of Practice on Handling Allegations of Research Misconduct</a>.</li> <li><a title="UNNC Research Ethics Committee" class="sys_16" href="http://www.nottingham.edu.cn/en/research/researchethics/researchethics.aspx">UNNC</a> and <a class="sys_16" href="http://moodle.nottingham.ac.uk/course/view.php?id=49248">UNM</a> have their own Research Ethics Committees together with representation on and reporting lines to the University REC.</li> <li>Faculties and Schools operate local Research Ethics Committees.

In all that we do, in all parts of the University, our staff and students are expected to behave in an ethical fashion and in accordance with the procedures and processes set out in this Framework. The University expects that its leaders will behave in accordance with this framework too and that we will continue to cultivate an environment of openness, transparency and integrity which is in clear accord with the University’s Vision, Mission and Global Strategy 2020.</p> <p>The University’s approach to developing, inducting and training its leaders will also embody the ethical approach set out here.</p> <h2>Summary</h2> <p class="headingBackground"><strong>Individually and collectively these procedures, combined with the culture of the institution, give the assurance that the University of Nottingham behaves ethically across its activities.</strong></p> <h2>Publication and Review</h2> <p>The Ethical Framework will be publicized within the University to staff and on the University of Nottingham website and drawn to the attention of new employees. Breaches of procedures which form part of the Ethical Framework may result in disciplinary action.</p> <p>The component policies and procedures identified within the Framework are subject to review periodically by the bodies and individuals responsible for oversight of them. Further consideration is to be given as these are reviewed to the harmonization and cross-referencing of policies which come within the Ethical Framework. <br /> It is also intended during the current session to examine the operation of the Ethical Framework at the Campuses in Asia.</p> <p>University Executive Board will formally review the operation of the Ethical Framework annually, taking account of the ethical maturity model set out in the International Professional Practices Framework Practice Guide, and provide a report on the outcome of each review to Council.</p> <p> </p> <p>Registrar</p> <p> </p> <hr /> <p> </p> <p>Approved by Management Board: 1 October 2012<br /> Amended and Approved by Council: 23 October 2012<br />Updated: October 2015<br /> Last updated: June 2022</p> </div> <div id="bottom"> <div class="sys_content"><h2>Registrar's Office</h2> <p class="sys_left">Trent Building<br />University of Nottingham<br /> University Park<br /> Nottingham, NG7 2RD</p> <p class="sys_right"><strong>telephone:</strong> +44 115 951 5761 <br /> <strong>fax:</strong> +44 115 951 5739 <br /> <strong>email:</strong> <a href="mailto:Registrars@nottingham.ac.uk" title="Registrars@nottingham.ac.uk">registrars@nottingham.ac.uk</a></p></div> <div class="sys_corners"></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="footer"><div id="HomepageFooterLinks"> <div class="sys_inner"> <div class="sys_twoColumns5050"> <div class="sys_one"> <h2> Legal information </h2> <ul> <li><a title="Copyright " href="/utilities/copyright.aspx">Copyright</a></li> <li><a title="Terms and conditions" href="/utilities/terms.aspx">Terms and conditions</a></li> <li><a title="Privacy" href="/utilities/privacy.aspx">Privacy</a></li> <li><a title="Posting rules" href="/utilities/posting-rules.aspx">Posting rules</a></li> <li><a title="Accessibility" href="/utilities/accessibility/accessibility.aspx">Accessibility</a></li> <li><a title="Freedom of information" href="/governance/records-and-information-management/freedom-of-information/freedom-of-information.aspx">Freedom of information</a></li> <li><a title="Charity gateway" href="/governance/gateway.aspx">Charity gateway</a></li> <li><a title="Cookie policy" href="/utilities/cookies.aspx">Cookie policy</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="sys_two"> <h2> Get social </h2> <p> <a title="Get Social with the University of Nottingham" href="/connect/">Connect</a> with the University of Nottingham through social media and our <a title="Go to our blogs" href="http://blogs.nottingham.ac.uk/">blogs</a>. </p> <p> <a href="http://www.facebook.com/UniofNottingham" title="Find us on facebook"><img width="22" height="22" src="/SiteElements/Images/Icons/icon-facebook.png" alt="Find us on Facebook"></a> <a href="http://twitter.com/UniofNottingham" title="Follow us on twitter"><img width="22" height="22" src="/SiteElements/Images/Icons/icon-twitter.png" alt="Twitter"></a> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/nottmuniversity" title="Watch us on You Tube"><img width="22" height="22" src="/SiteElements/Images/Icons/icon-youtube.png" alt="YouTube"></a> <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/company/university-of-nottingham/" title="Join us on Linked in"><img width="22" height="22" src="/SiteElements/Images/Icons/icon-linkedin.png" alt="LinkedIn"></a> <a href="http://uniofnottingham.tumblr.com/" title="Follow our Tumblr"><img width="22" height="22" src="/SiteElements/Images/Icons/icon-tumblr.png" alt="Tumblr"></a> <a href="http://instagram.com/uniofnottingham/" title="Find us on Instagram"><img width="22" height="22" src="/SiteElements/Images/Icons/icon-instagram.png" alt="Instagram"></a> <a href="http://e.weibo.com/uoneao" title="Find us on Weibo"><img width="22" height="22" src="/SiteElements/Images/Icons/icon-weibo.png" alt="Weibo"></a></p> <P> <A title="View our campus maps" href="/about/visitorinformation/mapsanddirections/mapsanddirections.aspx">Campus maps</A> | <A title="Contact The University of Nottingham" href="/contact/">More contact information</A> | <A title="Browse our current job opportunities" href="/jobs/">Jobs</A> </P> </div> </div> <div class="clear">   </div> </div> </div></div> </div> </div> <div class="aspNetHidden"> <input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATEGENERATOR" id="__VIEWSTATEGENERATOR" value="63E79F2E" /> <input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATEENCRYPTED" id="__VIEWSTATEENCRYPTED" value="" /> </div> </form> </body> </html>
