Sponsored Research Exemption Reporting
Under the Florida Code of Ethics for Public Officers and Employees (FCOE) and USF Policy 0-027, Sponsored Research Exemptions (SREs) may be approved by the Office of Compliance & Ethics for certain otherwise prohibitied employment, or contractual relationships USF employees have with businesses doing business with USF. The FCOE, section 112.313(12)(h), requires annual reporting to the State of Florida Governor and the Legislature. The SRE Reporting Procedure describes how this multi-unit process works.
