This project is creating a comprehensive research responsibility and ethics (RRE) training program for undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral scholars and researchers at the University of Michigan in the basic and social sciences and engineering. By virtue of its size, this campus presents unique challenges and opportunities. This interdisciplinary program is based on a comprehensive library of web-based podcasts, which serve as the basis for discussion of case studies by interdisciplinary small groups of students and postdocs as they attempt to solve problems of research responsibility and ethics (RRE).The discussion groups use the podcast library of lectures, panel discussions, mock IRB boards, and interviews with researchers and ethicists. Subjects range from ethical and moral reasoning and values presented by faculty from the Philosophy Department through issues of mentoring, fraud, fabrication and plagiarism to specific problems in social science research and professional ethics and regulatory issues. To reinforce the information discussed in the small groups, interdisciplinary "ethics slams" are held among course participants. Evaluation of the project is through periodic questionnaires, long-term follow up through self-reported behavioral data, and outside evaluation.To broaden the impact of the program beyond the reach of its website, the materials are being shared with the NSF-sponsored Michigan AGEP alliance schools (Michigan State University, Wayne State University and Western Michigan University), the 400 institutions in the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR), the University of Michigan ADVANCE program, the Office of Student Success (that sponsors the Summer Institute and Summer Research Opportunity Program for under-represented students in the graduate programs), the Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (that sponsors 1000 undergraduate researchers per year), and the Bouchet Society, an honor society for underrepresented minority graduate students.

该项目正在为密歇根大学基础科学、社会科学和工程领域的本科生、研究生和博士后学者和研究人员创建一个全面的研究责任和道德（RRE）培训计划。 凭借其规模，这个校园提出了独特的挑战和机遇。 这个跨学科的计划是基于一个基于网络的播客综合图书馆，作为跨学科的学生和博士后小组讨论案例研究的基础，因为他们试图解决研究责任和伦理（RRE）的问题。讨论组使用讲座，小组讨论，模拟IRB板播客图书馆，并与研究人员和伦理学家的访谈。主题范围从伦理和道德推理和价值观由教师从哲学系通过指导，欺诈，捏造和剽窃的问题，在社会科学研究和职业道德和监管问题的具体问题。为了加强小组讨论的信息，课程参与者之间举行了跨学科的“道德抨击”。该项目的评估是通过定期问卷调查，通过自我报告的行为数据进行长期跟踪，以及外部评估。为了扩大该项目的影响，使其超出其网站的范围，这些材料正在与NSF赞助的密歇根AGEP联盟学校分享（密歇根州立大学、韦恩州立大学和西密歇根大学），大学间政治和社会研究联盟（ICPSR）的400个机构，密歇根大学的ADVANCE计划，学生成功办公室（为研究生课程中代表性不足的学生赞助夏季研究所和夏季研究机会计划），本科生研究机会计划（每年资助1000名本科生研究人员）和Bouchet协会，一个为代表性不足的少数民族研究生设立的荣誉协会。
