Helpful Information
If you are conducting research that involves either humans or animals, then you will need to apply for Ethics Approval prior to data collection. Please note that ethics approval is mandated under Australian law. Higher Degree Research candidates should discuss any ethical implications or issues with their supervisors as early as possible in their candidature. Further information and application forms related to ethics approval are available on the Ethics and Grants website. The Australian Code for the Responsible Conduct of Research (2018) (ACRCR 2018), developed by the National Health and Medical Research Council, the Australian Research Council and Universities Australia, articulates the principles and responsibilities that characterise an honest, ethical and conscientious research culture. Research integrity is consistent and coherent respect for, and adherence to, these principles and responsibilities of research. Further information visit the Research Integrity website.
