Conflict of Interest, Conflict of Commitment, and Outside Activities

Policy:

The University of Texas at Austin has in place a policy that provides a transparent system of disclosure, approval, and documentation of its employees’ activities outside of the University that might otherwise raise concerns about conflicts of interest or conflicts of commitment. This policy exists to ensure compliance with state ethics laws and The University of Texas System Board of Regents’ Rules and Regulations, and is intended to provide the framework for rules and procedures to clearly delineate permissible outside activities. Faculty should review HOP 5-2011: Conflict of Interest, Conflict of Commitment, and Outside Activities.

Process:

Faculty planning to perform services for an employer outside UT Austin should submit a request via the Outside Activity Portal prior to beginning work. For instructions and a link to the Portal, see COE: Outside Employment Requests.
