These are issues on open access requirements, data management, authorship issues, documentation of ethical and legal permissions, declaring one’s conflicts of interest, etc. The purpose of this course is to help the PhD student to submit, responsibly and successfully, the PhD student’s thesis as well as papers to scientific journals. Learning objectives - Understand what it takes to stay clear of plagiarism and self-plagiarism. - Understand and interpret the result of iTthenticate’s screening for duplicate text. - Understand and apply relevant legal, scientific and societal norms (of e.g., but not limited to, Responsible Conduct of Research) in regards to the following specific subjects: * Plagiarism and self-plagiarism * Copyright * Open access * Authorship * Conflicts of interests * Ethical and legal permissions * Data management Requirements and expectations Prior to the course the PhD student must have some draft of a paper intended to be submitted to a scientific journal, or (if the PhD student is writing a monography) some draft of a dissertation. The course is intended for PhD students who expect to submit their PhD thesis within 12 months. We recommend that the PhD student has passed the mandatory RCR1 course prior to this course. Format of the course 4 hours course with teacher presentations and exercises directly aligned with the mandatory assignment.

The PhD student’s assignment is to fill out a logbook following the list and, for each checkpoint, explain how the PhD student is dealing with the challenge, or how the PhD student intends to deal with the challenge. One week after the course the PhD student submits the logbook to the teacher of the course. Two weeks after submission of the logbook, the PhD student receives a notification of the logbook being approved or not approved. If not approved the PhD student will receive an explanation and be asked to revise and re-submit within two weeks. All exchange of logbooks happens via Absalon and all parts of this assignment are mandatory. The PhD student has three attempts to pass the assignment. If the assignment is not passed after three attempts, the PhD student must take the course again. Failure to meet a deadline results in a failed attempt.
