UNM Compliance Policies
Policies Overview
The University of New Mexico is committed to a culture of integrity and ethical behavior. Ethical behavior is much more than simply following rules; it’s doing the right thing. The UNM Regents' Policy Manual at Section 2.18 outlines UNM’s guiding principles, and states that integrity, trust, the pursuit and dissemination of knowledge, and public service are essential elements of the University’s character and guide our decisions.
All members of the University community are expected to maintain the highest standard of ethics as articulated in the guiding principles. Our devotion to these principles – at all times, under all circumstances, and in all our actions – is key to our success as an institution and as individuals.
The following policy list provides the UNM community with a brief overview of significant compliance areas, to assure that we operate in a legally compliant and ethical environment. This list is not intended to be exhaustive of all policies that faculty and staff are expected to follow. Each employee is asked to review these policies located on the University of New Mexico’s Policy Department website.
