Promoting Research Ethics in Academic Studies: Challenges and Prospects

The Faculty of Arts and Human Sciences at Mohammed V University in Rabat is organizing the second edition of its International Conference in the fields of language studies, literature, and social sciences. This year’s theme will focus on the importance of promoting research ethics in academic research, particularly in the areas of language studies, literature, and social sciences.
As outlined by the 2017 report from the Higher Council for Education, Training, and Scientific Research, and the pedagogical guidelines for doctoral studies, research ethics serve as a cornerstone for ensuring the integrity and credibility of academic research. Upholding ethical standards is crucial to fostering trust between researchers, academic institutions, and society at large. In light of the growing academic and technological challenges, it is essential to cultivate a strong culture of research ethics among doctoral students to produce quality research that adheres to high standards of academic integrity.
