Human Research Ethics Workshops
For staff and student researchers wanting more information and advice about human research ethics review and approval at RMIT University.
Do you need to apply for human research ethics approval? If you plan to do research with people, their information or their tissue then the answer is ‘Yes’, and this workshop is for you. It will address the important questions for human research ethics applicants:
- How to complete the application process
- Where to get the information and documentation you need for your application.
Participants will have the opportunity to discuss their own research project and the ethical and practical issues that need to be considered.
