Celebrate the newly-formed UCF Center for Ethics at its kickoff event: A conversation with Dr. Lisa M. Lee about the current state and future of ethics in research and academia. Lee will offer perspectives on questions like “What is an ethical culture and how can a university create one?,” and “What do you see as the biggest threat to integrity in academia today and what do we do about it?”
The conversation will be moderated by center founder Dr. Jonathan Beever, assistant professor of ethics and digital culture, and co-director Dr. Stephen Kuebler, professor of chemistry. Light refreshments will follow the conversation.
