Australian Code for the Responsible Conduct of Research

The purpose of the 'Australian Code for the Responsible Conduct of Research' is to guide institutions and researchers in responsible research practices. In describing good practice, this Code promotes integrity in research for researchers and explains what is expected of researchers by the community. In providing advice on how to manage departures from best practice, this Code assists researchers, administrators and the community in this important matter.

Code of Practice for Research Higher Degree Candidature

This Code forms the basis for the provision of support and services to RHD candidates. It clearly defines the rights and responsibilitiies of all parties in our research endeavours. The Code should be referenced often to monitor the provision of services and the fulfillment of responsibilities of individuals who contribute to your candiature. It also provides a guide to your responsibilities to the University and to those involved in your research.
