Ethics Review

The Faculty of Education Research Ethics Board is a sub-board of The University of Western Ontario Non-Medical Research Ethics Board (NMREB), and has been delegated to review and approve research that involves no more than minimal risk. For information on delegated review and minimal risk refer to the UWO REB Guideline 1-G-004, and this web page.

If your research involves more than minimal risk to the research participants you must submit your ethics protocol to the UWO NMREB.

All research with human participants must conform to the university’s guidelines available from the Office of Research Ethics.
