In an effort to support Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved human subject research during the COVID-19 reopening of the State of Illinois and Illinois Tech, the Office of Research has developed safety guidelines to restart Human subjects Research.

Each principal investigator must develop a safety plan before restarting research that involves bringing Human Subjects to campus. The plan will be evaluated and approved by the Office of Research and IRB. Some general guidelines and the approval request form can be found in here. In addition to these guidelines, you must follow the ongoing University safety committee guidelines.

Please contact irb@iit.edu if you should have any questions.
