When undertaking a research or enterprise project, Cardiff Met staff and students are obliged to complete this form in order that the ethics implications of that project may be considered.
If the project requires ethics approval from an external agency such as the NHS or MoD, you will not need to seek additional ethics approval from Cardiff Met. You should however complete Part One of this form and attach a copy of your NHS application in order that your School is aware of the project.
The document Guidelines for obtaining ethics approval will help you complete this form. It is available from the Cardiff Met website.
Once you have completed the form, sign the declaration and forward to your School Research Ethics Committee.
PLEASE NOTE:
Participant recruitment or data collection must not commence until ethics approval has been obtained.
