Emily Carr University Research Ethics Board
Emily Carr University promotes a high standard of ethics and integrity in research and scholarship. All university-affiliated research and scholarship involving human participants requires review and approval of the University’s Research Ethics Board.
The REB is an independent committee that is charged by the President with the responsibility of ensuring the University’s ethical principles.
The REB acts in compliance with the Second Edition of the Tri-Council Policy Statement on Ethical Conduct for Research Involving Humans 2010 (TCPS 2). Emily Carr University Researchers who embark on human participant research will have succesfully completed the TCPS2:CORE (Course on Research Ethics) as part of the ECU-REB approval process.
All course-based or project-based research that involves humans requires REB review and approval prior to its commencement. Non-compliance with the University’s procedures regarding research that involves humans could result in withdrawal of funding or other disciplinary action.
