Research Ethics
Oxford Brookes University is committed to maintaining high
ethical standards in the research undertaken by staff and research
students. To this end, it has adopted a Code of Practice for
the Ethical Standards for Research Involving Human Participants
and has established a University Research Ethics Committee (UREC)
to promote good practice and to conduct formal ethics review
of research.
The full ethics review process, how to apply and how the Research
Ethics Committee operates are explained in the sections below.
