The Department's research programme is in compliance with the Concordat to Support Research Integrity, which is a condition of HEFCE and RCUK funding.  Devised by the UK Government, Universities UK, Research Councils UK, the National Institute for Health Research, the Wellcome Trust and other key stakeholders, it sets out five commitments that those engaged in research should make to help ensure that the highest standards of rigour and integrity are maintained. These key commitments apply to researchers, their employers and funding bodies alike.

A link to the Concordat, and to the University's own policies and statements concerning research integrity, can be found in the links panel to the right.
