国产伦理 Teaching & Research Faculty Handbook, Criteria for Principal Investigators (p. 239):
A. The Principal Investigator (PI) is the lead person on the research project and is responsible for the
ethical and professional conduct of all aspects of the project. In the case of doctoral students as the PI, this responsibility falls to the supporting faculty member.
- All full-time faculty members, self-supporting research professionals, or new faculty who have signed full-time contracts are eligible to be Principal Investigators.
- Administrators holding the titles of vice president, associate vice president, assistant vice president, vice provost, dean, university librarian, associate dean, assistant dean, and emeritus full and associate professor may be named as PI on projects directly related to the mission and responsibilities of their offices.
- Doctoral students seeking funding for fellowships, tuition, or support of research leading to the dissertation may be named as PI when a full-time teaching or research faculty member is named on the project as the responsible PI. The faculty member is responsible for seeing that the terms of the grant or contract are fulfilled.
- Persons holding the following titles in the absence of a faculty appointment as noted above are not eligible to be a PI: director, associate director, assistant director, postdoctoral associate, visiting professors at all levels, and research associates at all levels.
a. Requests for exceptions for those within Academic Affairs can be made by the unit head with written approval of the college dean and the provost and vice president for academic affairs. For those in areas other than Academic Affairs, it will require that such an application for an exception has been recommended by the unit head and approved by the corresponding vice president. All requests must be accompanied by the curriculum vitae of the prospective investigator.
b. The Research Foundation will maintain a list of non-faculty individuals who have been granted permission to submit proposals. The list will note if permission was given on a one-time-only basis or for a more extended period of time.

Handling confidential information on sponsored projects
A guide for faculty, staff, students, and other project personnel who may be given need-to-know access to a sponsor's or partner's confidential or proprietary information.
On some sponsored projects, a sponsor or research partner shares External Party Confidential/Proprietary Information with 国产伦理 or the 国产伦理 Research Foundation under a confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement. If your role on the project gives you a legitimate need to know that information, the responsibilities below apply to you for as long as you have access to it — and, in most cases, after the project ends.
Your responsibilities
Treat access as a privilege
Unauthorized access, use for an unpermitted purpose, or mismanagement of confidential information can cause economic and strategic harm to the party that owns it, and reputational and legal consequences for 国产伦理, 国产伦理 Research Foundation, and you personally.
Know that you're personally bound
You are bound by the restrictions in the confidentiality agreement 国产伦理 and/or 国产伦理 Research Foundation signed with the sponsor, and you are personally accountable for any breach you cause.
Safeguard it, physically and electronically
Diligently preserve and safeguard the information, and prevent unauthorized access, unpermitted use, or unauthorized disclosure, dissemination, or publication. If the confidentiality agreement specifies particular measures of care, follow those as well.
Access it only when authorized
Only access the information when you have a legitimate need tied to the project and you are authorized to do so.
Use it only for its authorized purpose
Limit your use of the information to the setting and purpose the owner authorized — not any other project, publication, or personal use.
Before you share it with anyone else
Before sharing the information with any other person, confirm all three of the following:
- The confidentiality agreement permits 国产伦理 and/or 国产伦理 Research Foundation to share the information through you.
- The recipient is an eligible recipient under the confidentiality agreement.
- The recipient understands the required measures of care and the permitted uses of the information — point them to this page.
Reporting a concern
Report immediately
If you discover any unauthorized access or use, use for an unpermitted purpose, theft, loss, or unauthorized disclosure of confidential information in your care, report the details right away to the 国产伦理 Research Foundation Compliance Specialist at rfhotline@odu.edu.
Before you leave 国产伦理 or 国产伦理 Research Foundation
- Ensure all confidential information in your care is returned or disposed of according to the information owner's instructions.
- Your obligations don't end when you leave: for the term of the applicable confidentiality agreement, and any additional period it specifies, you remain personally responsible for protecting any confidential information you had access to.
If you are not a U.S. person
Confidential/proprietary information may also be subject to U.S. Government export control laws. If you are not a U.S. Citizen or U.S. Permanent Resident, there may be limits on which confidential information you can be granted access to. If you're told you're not authorized to receive specific information, do not seek access to it.
Training may be required
Continued access to external-party confidential/proprietary information may require continued training and certification.
Your role as PI
If anyone on your project team — faculty, staff, students, or other personnel — may be given need-to-know access to a sponsor's confidential or proprietary information, you're responsible for making sure they're aware of their obligations before that access begins. Direct them to this page, and keep it in mind any time new personnel join the project.
