Office of Institutional Research, Planning, and Assessment (OIRPA)
The CBU Institutional Review Board (IRB) is a function of the OIRPA and exists to assure human research subjects’ rights and welfare are safeguarded. All research involving human subjects (participants) must be reviewed and approved by the IRB before the research is initiated.
Please note: the IRB cannot approve an application submitted after the research is initiated, nor consent to any human subjects data collected without prior approval.
