Ethics and governance
Nottingham Trent University undertakes research to advance the knowledge base of society and deliver innovations to the community to enhance social wellbeing. We are committed to undertake research to the highest standards of professional conduct and maintain effective research and ethical governance.
The University Research Committee has responsibility for the implementation and monitoring of the Research and Ethical Governance Framework. This is reviewed annually by the committee to allow NTU to work to current best practice. The committee also has responsibility for the dissemination of best practice and reporting on University performance in this area.
Our Research and Ethical Governance Monitor supports and coordinates this important area of activity. Their responsibilities include the monitoring of ethically approved studies, policies and procedures adopted across the University. The Monitor provides reports to the Research Committee and also contributes to the annual report.
