Student Research Requirements

 
 
 
 

Student research activities are governed by both the requirements of good research and the regulations of the Abu Dhabi IRB. Student research is any systematic data collection and recording process done by students that is subject to interpretation and dissemination to solve a problem or advance understanding of a discipline. Dissemination occurs whenever information goes beyond registered students or assigned faculty or supervisors for a course.

Examples of student research include the collection of data for a thesis, honors paper, or departmental paper or data collected for publication, distribution, presentation, or that is publicly available beyond the course environment. It is the responsibility of faculty members overseeing student research activities to ensure that the students meet the professional standards of the discipline and also conform to this policy.
