Overview
A conflict of interest exists if financial interests or other opportunities for tangible personal benefit may exert a substantial and improper influence on an employee's professional judgment in exercising any university duty or responsibility, including designing, conducting, or reporting research. "Employees" include faculty, staff, administrators and others. A conflict of interest is not an accusation and does not imply that an employee's judgment has been compromised.
University policies and procedures for identifying, evaluating, and managing situations involving a conflict of interest are designed to meet applicable sections of the Ohio Revised Code (Sections 102.03 , 2921.42 and 2921.43) and as well as federal regulations.
