Ethics Matter at UAH
The University of Alabama in Huntsville is committed to conducting its affairs in ways that promote mutual trust and public confidence. All members of the UAH community are responsible for sustaining the highest ethical standards of excellence, integrity, honesty, and fairness, and for integrating these values into teaching, research, business practices, and other services.
Acting ethically and professionally is everyone's responsibility. All UAH Members have a duty to properly report, or cause to be properly reported, any Wrongful Conduct. Additionally, as appropriate, UAH Members must cooperate with any investigation.
