What are the requirements for students conducting research?
Student protocols must conform to the federal and university guidelines to which all research with human subjects applies. The protocol and informed consent must be reviewed and approved by the student’s faculty advisor prior to submission to the Office of Research Regulatory Compliance. For all student research, the faculty advisor or instructor assigning the project is considered the Principal Investigator. The PI is responsible for ensuring that students and all personnel conducting the study adhere to university policies for the ethical conduct of the research and protection of participants.
