Data
Data analysis and management is an integral part of conducting your research. We offer a range of courses covering different software and techniques to help you analyse and manage your data - whether the data you’re collecting is quantitative, qualitative or a mixture of both. The full list of software available through the University of Exeter is available on the website.

Below is an introduction to Research Ethics at the University. If you have any questions refer to the Research Ethics & Governance webpages, your project coordinator, Ethics committee chair or the central Research Ethics & Governance team.
Complete Research Integrity Mandatory Online training
When you start your research degree, you will need to complete Mandatory Research Integrity Online Training. You will need to report you have completed this training as part of your Training Needs Analysis.
Ethical review of research
Information about the ethical review of research process can be found on the University website, including links to University and College level ethics committee.
All colleges are in the process of implementing our new Research Management System. As part of this improvement, Ethical Review will take place on a system called Worktribe Ethics. Most PGRs will have access to this system for any new applications, for HUMS based PGRs please contact your Ethics Chair for further information.
The Research Ethics & Governance team have set up an online section of resources about the new Research Management System and how to use it.
