Guidelines for Authorship

Publication practices vary widely between disciplines, so a single set of firm policies governing authorship is not possible or desirable.

The recommended best practice is for each department to develop its own special guidelines in order to inform graduate students, academic staff, and other collaborators in research.

General FGSR guidelines intended to prompt discussion of expectations at the department level are outlined in the Graduate Program Manual--Section 10: Intellectual Property.
