International Engagement and Collaborations

UF Research Integrity, Security and Compliance (UF RISC) is available to help faculty and staff navigate the new and changing regulations around these international relationships. There is growing concern regarding certain agreements and activities between university faculty members and various foreign universities and institutions, the existence of which may have a negative impact on funding decisions for individual researchers. Of particular concern are the cases where researchers are not disclosing these relationships and activities to their university or to U.S. federal sponsors of their work. The recent message from the funding agencies is clear: researchers and their universities must completely disclose all foreign activities to their sponsors.
