MFTRP (Malign Foreign Talent Recruitment Program) Self Assessment Form
Foreign research opportunities may involve commitments that conflict with federal research security requirements. Complete this brief assessment before accepting or continuing a foreign appointment, affiliation, or other professional arrangement.
Federal law prohibits covered individuals participating in federally funded research and development from participating in an MFTRP. This assessment helps ORS review your opportunity; it does not determine whether an arrangement is prohibited.
Select Yes, No, or Unsure for each question. If you do not know, select Unsure rather than guessing. Every completed assessment, regardless of preliminary indicators, must be submitted to ORS for review. The on-screen message is informational only.
This self-assessment is a preliminary screening tool. It does not constitute an official MFTRP determination, institutional approval, or authorization to participate. Applicable Clemson and sponsor disclosure requirements still apply.
