About the RCR Course

Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) @ GW and Beyond is a semester-long weekly seminar course designed to develop and strengthen ethical problem-solving skills as well as to foster sensitivity to ethical issues in the conduct of research. By examining ethical dilemmas in research, students can explore consequences of ethical decision-making, practice problem-solving strategies, and acquire the ability to respond appropriately to observed wrongdoing. Students will engage by participating in discussions and active learning mechanisms facilitated by active researchers and administrators at the university.

The RCR @ GW and Beyond course meets the National Institute of Health’s requirement of eight in-person training hours on RCR topics.

Weekly seminar course from September 1, 2022 - December 8, 2022
