Several of my students want to conduct projects involving human subjects. Do they need to file with HSC2?
It depends. If it is only a classroom project, and the data is not being used beyond normal classroom activities, HSC2 review and approval is not required. However, students should always remember to conduct their projects in an ethical manner, respecting their fellow students. If the student’s project is intended to be a systematic study with the intent to contribute to a larger body of knowledge, then it falls underneath the federal definition of research and needs HSC2 approval.
