UNCW Conflict of Interest or Committment Resources (From the Inroduction to the UNCW Conflict of Interest or Committment Policy) Interactions between universities and external organizations have increased significantly in recent years and now frequently involve relationships among one or more universities and many external partners. These often complex relationships require that guidelines, such as this Policy on Conflict of Interest, be used to assure the importance of academic integrity in research. In order to fulfill its teaching/research/outreach mission, UNCW encourages its faculty and other EPA employees to participate in meaningful and appropriate relationships with business and governmental partners. These partnerships are therefore established for mutually beneficial reasons and many times produce knowledge that will help to meet the needs of the community UNCW reflects and serves. In order to preserve the employee's freedom to participate in these activities while avoiding real as well as perceived conflicts of interest, this uniform policy, consistent with current HHS and NSF guidelines, was developed for UNCW. All faculty and EPA nonfaculty employees are required by this Policy to avoid conflicts of interest and conflicts of commitment in their relationships with external organizations.
