Governance: developing a 'how to' guide on ethics for all universities and colleges

The project was established to develop, on a partnership basis with the full range of UK higher education institutions and independent experts, a ‘how to’ guide on ethical behaviour and standards. It was intended toprovide a framework within which institutions can develop, monitor and update their policies in areas such as marketing, admissions, guidance and support for students, objectivity in research and teaching, the receipt of funds from businesses and individuals, equal opportunities and conflicts of interest. This guide brought the higher education sector into line with private sector practice.

Total funding : £67,000
