Policy for the Preparation and Training of Students Working with Human and/or Animal Subjects


It is the policy of IUP to foster an academic environment that encourages ethical conduct in all research and scholarship.  To this end, IUP shall require that all students who engage, or plan to engage, in systematic interaction with human and/or animal subjects that requires approval by the IRB and/or the IACUC first complete ethical training prior to the initiation of their activities.  It is further the policy of IUP that non-IUP students who wish to use IUP as a study site for their IRB or IACUC-approved projects must also complete IUP’s prescribed ethical training prior to the initiation of their activities at IUP.
