Charlotte’s commitment to Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) is supported by the University’s Training in Responsible Conduct of Research Rule (RUL 10.15.1). This rule establishes the requirement for responsible conduct of research education for individuals required to have such education prior to working on federally-sponsored projects where the federal sponsor has mandated such education.
