The code of conduct combines the principles and practices for open science, research ethics, research integrity, responsible research assessment, and responsible science communication. Through continuous improvement we aim to support and encourage the achievement of openness and responsible research in the every day practices of the academic community.
Academic peer reviewing is an integral part of our research quality management. The University of Lapland follows the recommendations and guidelines for academic peer review published by the Federation of Finnish Learned Societies. In research evaluation we follow the national recommendations for good practice in researcher evaluation, which provide the basis for our guidelines for visibility of research and responsible research evaluation.
