The following advice on the submission of ethical clearance applications. If you have any further questions please contact your Faculty Research Ethics Advisor, the ethics website (www.research.qut.edu.au/ethics ) for clarification.
When do I submit an application for ethical clearance?
Applicants are advised to submit their
application for ethical clearance once
the research design and methodology has been confirmed. Data
collection instruments (surveys, interview questions, etc) can be in draft form
at submission, however they must be sufficiently indicative of the nature of
the intended instrument to enable adequate review of the proposal and
determination of the corresponding risk level of the proposed research. If the
instruments are provided in draft form, applicants will be required to provide
final versions for approval prior to their use.
NOTE: PhD students are
advised to submit their applications for ethical clearance following confirmation, unless data
collection is to commence prior to this time.
