Research Ethics Approval Form

Research Ethics Approval Form
LSBE is concerned to protect the dignity, rights, safety and well-being of all participants in any
research study that involves people. The avoidance of harm to research subjects should therefore be
a prime consideration for all LSBE researchers and students. This ethics approval form must be
completed by all UG and PG students who are undertaking a research project/dissertation or work
based project, and be signed by both the student and the supervisor.
If the research is not NHS-based, please complete the questions below and hand in the form to your
supervisor (type written). Once your supervisor has approved and signed off the form, they will
retain it for the duration of the project. It is wise to complete the form in a timely fashion as your
supervisor might ask you to make amendments prior to approving it.
