Faculty Reports and Annual Trainings

Faculty file an Outside Activities Disclosure Report each fall. You should receive an automated notification; however, the form and instructions can be found at UIC Research COI. This reporting process is not intended to discourage non-university income-generating activities—it is recognized that most of these activities are consistent with, and often beneficial to, your university role. The reporting and approval procedures assist in ensuring that external activities are compatible with university obligations. The policy on Conflict of Commitment and Interest (COI) applies to all faculty and academic staff.

You must file a Statement of Economic Interests if you hold a university P-(purchasing) or T-(travel) card. The Illinois Secretary of State will mail the statement to the home address on file with the university and will send reminders to employees who have not yet filed. Blank forms are available at University Ethics and Compliance Office.

The Online Ethics Training is completed each Fall semester. You will receive a notification and log-in details via email.

The Online Sexual Misconduct Training is completed each Spring semester. You will receive a notification and log-in details via email.

Full-time faculty submit a Faculty Activity Report annually through My Activities. This report is used to record and share accomplishments, compile reporting data on faculty activities, and potentially determine merit-based salary increases.
