Office of Research Transparency and Outreach

The Research Transparency & Outreach Office is responsible for the implementation and oversight of the federal, state, and local research-related requirements of several key policies, including the Contractor Code of Business Ethics and Conduct Policy and the University of Maryland Policy on Consulting (II.3.10[E]). The Office will also work to build campus awareness of these requirements and policies through training and outreach.

The Director of Research Transparency & Outreach works directly with the campus community to inform, educate, and support on issues pertaining to research transparency associated with disclosures, post-approval monitoring and reporting, and reporting requirements associated with “other support”; implementation of federal, state, and local requirements, such as those stipulated in National Security Presidential Memorandum-33 (NSPM-33), Maryland State Ethics Law, and USM and UMD Policies; and address any questions, concerns, or issues related to the required reporting requirements associated with outside professional activities.
