Professional Ethics in Research
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering expects that students will respect and maintain the high ethical standards that govern all phases of research and graduate studies.
The dissertation is not only a representation of a student’s hard work, it is also a reflection on the adviser, the department, the Graduate School, and the University of Minnesota.
I encourage you to read the online book "On Being a Scientist: Responsible Conduct in Research", and
