Good scientific practice at TU Dresden
Scientific work is based on fundamental principles that apply equally to all scientific disciplines. The foremost principle is truthfulness with respect to oneself and others. It is both an ethical norm and the basis of the rules of scientific professionalism that apply in the individual disciplines.
All members of TU Dresden are obliged to comply with the Statutes for Ensuring Good Scientific Practice, for Avoiding Scientific Misconduct and for Dealing with Violations, to make it the basis of their scientific work and to actively contribute to the avoidance of scientific misconduct in their field of activity.
At TU Dresden, scientific misconduct is not tolerated. Any justified suspicion of scientific misconduct within TU Dresden will be investigated and given the utmost attention, with due regard ensured for the rights of those involved. If the suspicion is confirmed, appropriate measures will be taken in the individual case.
If you have questions about good scientific practice or are suspecting scientific misconduct and need advice, the ombudsperson and the Office for Good Scientific Practice are available to assist you.
In addition, the liaison officers for early-career researchers are available to you as the first contact persons for early-career researchers at the faculty level.
Trained advisors and coaches of the Graduate Academy offer individual advice on "Good Scientific Practice" and support doctoral students, postdocs and supervisors in case of conflicts in the doctoral supervision relationship.
