Student Ethics Forms
All research involving humans or animals must undergo ethics approval.
Research conducted by FASS PhD and Masters students should be submitted to the FASS Ethics Committee.
(Note: This page is for student forms. Staff members can find their relevant ethics forms in the UBD staff portal.)
Ethical clearance procedures:
- Step 1: Students first consult with their supervisor regarding the proposed proposal to check if it requires any ethical clearance.
- Step 2: Having read the proposal the supervisor should decide if there are any ethical concerns in the proposal that need to be forwarded to the FASS ethics committee for clearance.
- Step 3: If the supervisor thinks that the proposal needs to be forwarded to the ethics committee, he/she should suggest that the student download the ethics clearance form from the FASS website, fill it up and send to the ethics committee.
- Step 4: The student should fill up the hardcopy ethics clearance form, attach the relevant documents, and send them to FASS General Office (Room 2.93). All soft copy of the forms should be sent via email (office.fass@ubd.edu.bn).
- Step 5: The committee will review the proposal and will inform the student about the outcome as soon as possible via email.
