Here at Munger Graduate Residences, we recognize it is important for graduate and professional students to learn and grow outside of their academic disciplines. This is why we developed the Munger Graduate Program. Throughout the year, graduate and professional students living both in Munger and outside of Munger have the opportunity to take part in events focused on building community and developing transdisciplinary skills essential for success in 21st-century careers

Responsible conduct of research (RCR) is defined as the practice of scientific investigation with integrity (NIH, NOT-OD-10-019). Learning about the responsible conduct of research is considered an essential component of research education and training. This course is designed to provide biomedical science graduate students and postdoctoral scholars an "awareness and application of established professional norms and ethical principles in the performance of all activities related to scientific research" (NIH, NOT-OD-10-019). Course materials include readings, videos, and case studies. Discussions will take place in small-group sessions offered at many different times throughout the semester with a faculty member. This course will comply with the National Institutes of Health; requiring a minimum of eight hours of face-to-face instruction in the responsible conduct of research.

This workshop will meet the needs of those applying for Rackham internship programs, but is open to any graduate students seeking guidance around interviewing for positions beyond tenure track roles, which can differ greatly from the academic job search process.

This workshop is designed for master's students, doctoral students and postdoctoral fellows. For faculty and staff, please contact RackhamEvents@umich.edu to see if we can accommodate your attendance.
