Table of Contents

When entering a collaboration or partnership of academic research with public or private sector grants and contracts a risk of conflict will present itself. 91³Ô¹ÏÍø (91³Ô¹ÏÍø) has adopted policies that regulate potential conflicts of interest among faculty and staff members employed on grants and contracts as required by federal, state, CSU, and 91³Ô¹ÏÍø laws and policies. If a real or potential conflict is disclosed it will be confidentially reviewed, and a determination will be made whether the conflict requires the development of a resolution plan to address the conflicts.
