RCR and the Office of Research Integrity and Compliance

A central focus of the Office of Research Integrity and Compliance (ORIC) is to foster the responsible conduct of research and provide support for West Virginia University faculty, staff and students in their research endeavors through training, education and consultation. In addition to the online RCR program, WVU ORIC staff members are available to:

1. Conduct RCR training and/or make tailored educational presentations to faculty, staff and students.

2. Provide consultation on specific RCR issues.

3. Develop and/or assemble RCR materials for use in courses and other academic venues.

4. Act as a liaison and resource to the federal government, agencies and professional societies regarding RCR issues.
