UCSB Misconduct Policy
The UCSB Research Misconduct Policy has been revised to comply with the latest federal sponsor requirements and to reflect UCSB’s ongoing commitment to the highest standards of intellectual honesty and integrity. The revised policy outlines expectations for the ethical behavior of all university personnel involved in research and provides procedures for addressing allegations of research misconduct. The revised policy can be found on the Research Misconduct page of the Office of Research website.
GSRs no longer require timecards (in most cases!)
Campus is in the process of implementing new Timekeeping Guidelines. An overarching goal is to simplify how we process time cards on campus. Timekeeping is simply recording hours worked and leave taken. Employees who are exempt from earning overtime and not eligible to accrue leave (based on title code or appointment percentage) do not need a time card. Click here for more details.
Revised NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide (PAPPG) will be effective for proposals due on or after January 25, 2016.
