Research Integrity Officers

As outlined in the official CUNY Policy on Research Misconduct, the President of each College within the University has designated a Research Integrity Officer to receive allegations of Research Misconduct involving faculty, staff, and/or post-doctoral associates at the College.

The Research Integrity Officer (RIO) may be an administrator or tenured faculty member at the College with experience in research and has received appropriate training from the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research to carry out his/her responsibilities under this Policy.   Each RIO is in charge of providing training to faculty, staff, and/or post-doctoral associates at the College.  Contact information of the current Research Integrity Officer for each College is available below.

" The Role of the RIO " - a video from the Office of Research Integrity, DHHS. In the video, four experienced RIOs, and three former and current members of ORI provide a broad overview of the knowledge and skills to meet the challenges of a RIO.
