    (Research Gate, 2018-04) Barfi, Faustina Kyerewaa
    Contemporary developments and free academic environments such as: Open access √repositories, √ collaborative research √big data √innovations √ social networks platforms have subjected knowledge, teaching, speaking and publishing to the norms and standards of scholarly inquiry. Ø Further, concerns on: √ Funding, √ranking, √reputation building √integrity of research on such institutions. Ø Honesty, objectivity, trust, legality, integrity, accountability and responsibility in conducting academic research according to the European University Institute, (2013:7) have become the cornerstone of many academic enterprises which includes the Polytechnics now Technical Universities. With regards to the conversion of the polytechnics in Ghana to Technical Universities, it is envisaged to trigger research gaps. Inversely, limited attention has been given in addressing ethical issues, intellectual property and awareness.
