Human Subjects Research

Welcome to the College of Health Sciences Human Subjects Committee Web page.  We are dedicated toward assisting college faculty and students in their quest for approval of research proposals that involve the use of data from human subjects.  To expedite this process we have a number of steps in the process that researchers should review in the development of their proposals.  Please refer to the items below as you contemplate submitting a research proposal.  All exempt proposals to the college committee must be delivered to the offices of the committee members by one week prior to the meeting date for consideration at that month's meeting.
