Abstract
We describe the development, implementation, and assessment of an Ethics in Science program as a component of a summer undergraduate research site. The goals and course content of the program overlap with those outlined in the proposed Office of Research Integrity–Public Health Service Policy on Instruction in the Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR). The Ethics in Science program provides a model for RCR instructional programs.
