The Complaints Committee for Scientific Integrity's primary task is to investigate complaints about supposed violations of research integrity and, based on its investigations, to advise the Board of Governors. The Complaints Committee is an independent committee of Zuyd University of Applied Sciences. The Complaints Committee for Scientific Integrity can also provide solicited and unsolicited advice to the Board of Governors on the policy of the university of applied sciences with regards to research integrity.
In 2018, the Association of Universities of Applied Sciences signed the Netherlands Code of Conduct for Research Integrity (NGWI). This code of conduct sets out the 5 principles of honesty and integrity in research: fairness, diligence, transparency, independence and accountability. These principles have been developed into clear standards that researchers can use in daily practice.
