Universities are diverse places that encourage collaborative environments which result in many avenues for exports. Export compliance becomes a concern when researchers and staff work on projects that are considered controlled or have publication restrictions that include foreign persons or foreign collaborators. Researchers have the primary compliance responsibility regarding export control laws and regulations. Export compliance violations can result in penalties and fines which may apply to an individual, the institution or both.
An overview of USU's Export Compliance Program, along with details regarding faculty and staff's obligations under U.S. export control regulations can be found in the USU Export Compliance Program Manual.
