Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) training is required for all GVSU graduate students and those GVSU undergraduate students who have internal funding (e.g. McNair Scholars, S3-Student Summer Scholars, MS3-Modified Student Summer Scholars, and students paid on GVSU R&D grants). NSF, NIH, and GVSU R&D funded research requires RCR training. All other investigators and personnel that will be in contact with subjects or data that can be linked to subjects are also required to complete RCR training every 3 years.
