RCR training hours than theircounterparts in non-biomedical disciplines.The approach at our institutionTo reiterate, there are two components to the RCR academic policy at Georgia Tech: (a)online training and (b) in-person training. For the in-person portion, doctoral studentsmust complete a campus-wide RCR course or a program-specific “in-house” approach.The campus-wide course is for one-credit and is available to any graduate student.Individual academic programs are both permitted and encouraged to develop their ownin-house approach in lieu of the campus-wide RCR course. Some academic units havealready done so. For example, the School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineeringintegrates RCR material into its first-semester research

The ethics survey written and delivered to the students is available inAppendix B. At UND, a total of 126 students were polled: 68 second year, 55 third year, 3 fourthyear students. These students were primarily chemical engineering (ChE) students (124 ChE, 2computer science/engineering). The surveys taken in computer methods (CBE20258), processcontrols (CBE30338

discussion of this example often allows thelecturer to introduce concepts such as the “New York Times” test for identifying ethical issues:if the action you are contemplating is one you would not wish to read about on the front page ofthe New York Times, then thoughtful ethical analysis is recommended. Similarly, under the“sweaty palms” test, if a given action, behavior or decision makes you intuitively uncomfortable– gives you sweaty palms – you should consider that unease as a symptom calling for theapplication of ethical thought.There are three additional examples in the lecturer’s deck of slides. These involve (a) the receiptof information from a marketing consultant under “shady” circumstances, (b) an invitation froma supplier to attend a
