Guidance for Students

Students planning to carry out research are also required to consider issues of ethics and to ensure that they comply with the University´s code of ethics.

Following each ethics review, the ethics administrator will send an electronic copy of the record of the ethics review outcome to the University's Research Office. An annual report, in response to the UREC call, on ethics scrutiny will be produced by the Director of Research.

For further detailed help and guidance, please consult the departmental ethics reviewers and/ or the University's Research Ethics pages.
