Meru University of Science and Technology Research Ethics Review System: A SWOT Analysis

The objectives of this article are as follows: 1) to propose a university research ethics system framework, 2) to provide a brief anatomy of the Meru University of Science and Technology (MUST) Institutional Research Ethics Review Committee (MIRERC), 3) to perform a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis of MIRERC, and 4) to make recommendations for improving its performance. The 13-member multi-disciplinary MIRERC was established in April 2017 to provide effective ethical oversight of research undertaken by the University’s scholarly community. Strengths of the MUST research ethics review system include a functional MIRERC, a pertinent national law and ethical guidelines, an Innovation and Enterprise Centre that could house a dedicated MIRERC Secretariat, and a supportive University Management Board. The weaknesses include lack of graduate schools to assure scientific rigor of proposals before submission to the MIRERC, lack of research ethics training in most school’s curricula, absence of a dedicated MIRERC Secretariat, undergraduate research proposals being not ethically reviewed, dearth of faculty trained in research ethics, and lack of an operating budget for MIRERC work. The opportunities include existence of about 22 accredited Institutional Research Ethics Review Committees (IRERC) in Kenya, existence of international standards and operational guidance for ethics review, availability of guidelines and codes of best ethical practices in research, existence of a free automated platform called Research for Health Innovation Organizer (RHInnO) Ethics for managing the ethics review process, and availability of external resources for strengthening IRERCs. In order to improve the performance and sustainability of the MUST research ethics system, there is need to include research ethics training in all undergraduate and post-graduate curricula, create a dynamic database of potential research ethics reviewers, allocate a percentage of the annual MUST research budget for MIRERC operations, charge a graduated fee for proposal ethics review, require all students’ and faculties’ internal and external research proposals be cleared by the MIRERC, and use the RHInnO Ethics platform to manage the ethics review process.

The Brief Introduction on Q—T Plateau Research of Chengdu University of Technology

Chengdu University of Technology (CDUT), located on the eastern edge of the Qinghai—Tibet Plateau, a higher education and research institution with a focus on geosciences, has paid special attention to scientific research on Q—T Plateau. In the earlier 1950s Professor Zhang Zhuoyuan, the former president of CDUT and Professor Ren Tianpei joined the geological survey in Tibet as members of the Tibetan geological working group organized by the Central Government of China. Since the 1980s, research on the Q—T Plateau has reached a golden age, and recognized this, CDUT established the Resources and Environment Research Center of Qinghai—Tibet Plateau in order to lead and coordinate the research around the Plateau continuously and smoothly. There are often more than 50 geologists involved in research during any given year. Scientists from CDUT are now conducting many kinds of research programs covering the whole area of the Plateau, from the Himalayas in the south to the Tianshan Mountains in the north, from the Longmen Mountains and the West Yunnan Plateau in the east to Ali area in the west. Scientists from CDUT have completed cooperative research programs with foreign scientists from the U. S., France, U.K., Japan, Austria, Canada, Germany and Australia. Research subjects include National Key Basic Research, State Scientific Key Projects, National Natural Scientific Foundation Projects, National Outstanding Young Scientists Foundation Projects, as well as Basic Geological Survey, Mineral Resources Evaluation, Analysis of Potential Oil and Gas Resources, Geohazard Protection.. More than 40 projects and 6 geological maps in different scales (1∶1000000, 1∶200000, 1∶50000) have been completed.. Research funding has increased to billions of yuan. Thousands relevant research papers and works have been published. More than 20 projects have won scientific achievement awards at national, ministerial and provincial levels. Meanwhile, a research group of young and middle\|aged scientists led by Prof. Wang Chengshan has formed and is determined to devote itself to the Q—T geological research. Many of them have broken established rules and have become professors or gained prizes. To strengthen Q—T research, the Ministry of Land and Resources specially established the Laboratory of Continental Dynamics of the Qianghai—Tibet Plateau at CDUT in 1999. Academicians, Li Tingdong and Liu Baojun, are the Honorary Directors of the Lab and the Academic Committee of the Lab respectively. Professor Wang Chengshan and Prof. Zhu Jieshou are the Directors.

The“3060”goal demonstrates China’s responsibility in actively responding to global climate,enhances China’s voice and influence in climate governance,and sets an example of energy conservation and emission reduction for developing countries.As the main institutions that educate people for the Party and the country,colleges and universities have the responsibility to explore the realization path of carbon peak and carbon neutralization against the new problems encountered in the practice of energy conservation and emission reduction in colleges and universities.In response to the national strategy and the action plan of the Ministry of Education,taking the carbon practice of China University of Geosciences(Beijing)as the starting point,this paper conducts benchmarking research on the path of carbon peak and carbon neutralization in universities through the ecological factor method,campus carbon footprint,and questionnaire analysis.

Substantiality:A Construct Indicating Research Excellence to Measure University Research Performance

Purpose:The adequacy of research performance of universities or research institutes have often been evaluated and understood in two axes:“quantity”(i.e.size or volume)and“quality”(i.e.what we define here as a measure of excellence that is considered theoretically independent of size or volume,such as clarity in diamond grading).The purpose of this article is,however,to introduce a third construct named“substantiality”(“ATSUMI”in Japanese)of research performance and to demonstrate its importance in evaluating/understanding research universities.Design/methodology/approach:We take a two-step approach to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed construct by showing that(1)some characteristics of research universities are not well captured by the conventional constructs(“quantity”and“quality”)-based indicators,and(2)the“substantiality”indicators can capture them.Furthermore,by suggesting that“substantiality”indicators appear linked to the reputation that appeared in university reputation rankings by simple statistical analysis,we reveal additional benefits of the construct.Findings:We propose a new construct named“substantiality”for measuring research performance.We show that indicators based on“substantiality”can capture important characteristics of research institutes.“Substantiality”indicators demonstrate their“predictive powers”on research reputation.Research limitations:The concept of“substantiality”originated from IGO game;therefore the ease/difficulty of accepting the concept is culturally dependent.In other words,while it is easily accepted by people from Japan and other East Asian countries and regions,it might be difficult for researchers from other cultural regions to accept it.Practical implications:There is no simple solution to the challenge of evaluating research universities’research performance.It is vital to combine different types of indicators to understand the excellence of research institutes.Substantiality indicators could be part of such a combination of indicators.Originality/value:The authors propose a new construct named substantiality for measuring research performance.They show that indicators based on this construct can capture the important characteristics of research institutes.
