Course instructors requiring students to conduct research involving human participants as part of their course requirements must submit a proposal for course-based research involving human participants to REB 1 via the ARISE system prior to the beginning of the term in which the class will be taught. For detailed guidance, including how to determine whether the planned activities for a course require review and how to apply, see the Research Ethics Office’s Guidelines on Course-Based Research information sheet. A course-based research ethics  application must outline the types of research required of students, detail the potential risks to human participants and the manner in which these risks will be handled, and describe how the instructor will educate the students about research ethics. The application must include copies of the course syllabus as well as the documentation (e.g. consent forms, interview templates) normally required for research ethics applications.  To support students’ development as members of the research community, all courses involving research on human participants should incorporate the teaching of research ethics as an integral part of the course content. Note: course activities involving  handling and observation of the human remains in the Osteology Collection fall under its role as a University museum collection and do not require ethical approval.
