327-2226-00L | Ethics and Scientific Integrity for Doctoral Students (MaP Doctoral School) sensitises its participants to ethical issues that may occur during their doctorate. In part 1 (self-paced e-learning course), doctoral students receive an introduction to ethics and good scientific practice, and are familiarised with resources that can assist them with ethical decision-making. For part 2 (interactive onsite workshop), the MaP Doctoral School offers a one-day program to apply the knowledge in a discipline-specific context. 1 ECTS credit point is awarded upon completing part 1+2, in accordance with the new regulations on the doctorate at ETH.
In the MaP Doctoral School | Ethics Workshop (part 2), doctoral students are guided to recognise and analyse ethically-relevant situations in their scientific research. In a peer-learning format, different approaches to problem-solving are identified and trained. Doctoral students will feel empowered to deal with ethical issues and prepared to take a position in relation to their impact in science and society.
