Timeline for A university does not allow its employees to use its affiliation on papers done in spare time; how normal is that?

University have some (internal/external) guidelines on what research they do. Anything from military, or political or .... might be off-limits. | |

| Jan 30, 2016 at 0:20 | comment | added | aroth | Seems like the university is just trying to do the right thing, in terms of saying "we don't want to take any credit for work you do on your own side projects; you should keep it all for yourself"? Which would be strange/uncommon, but in a good way. If you've been doing independent research, why wouldn't you want it acknowledged as such? | |

| Jan 29, 2016 at 11:14 | comment | added | tomasz | My first reaction was similar to Stephan's: how do you tell which papers are written in spare time, and which are not? Do you have to use a punch card or something? How do you separate work time and spare-time-during-which-you-are-doing-research? They seem like the same thing to me. | |

But I think it is weird even outside of tenure: e.g. I am a postdoc but would naturally want to put my current affiliation on any research paper even if it is outside of my main field of interest/work. | |

| Jan 28, 2016 at 21:08 | comment | added | Fábio Dias | How do you define 'outside your field' when you have tenure and freedom do chose your field? Might be common, but I do find it weird... | |
