Conflict of Interest and Consulting Policy
Conflict of Interest Policy
This Policy :
- describes the process by which the University identifies, evaluates and manages individual financial conflicts of interest without violating its central mission,
- uses disclosure as the key mechanism to bring potential conflicts of interest to light for evaluation and possible oversight,
- identifies individual conflicts of interest that are not allowed because they are a violation of law or are judged by the University to be a violation of its central mission.
It is the duty of every member of the University community to immediately disclose his or her personal or family involvement in activities listed in Activities Requiring Disclosure. Approval of the Conflict of Interest Committee must be obtained before engaging in these activities.
The conflict of interest policy can be found in the University Administrative Manual (UAM). For a full version of the policy click here.
