Grievance Procedure

If application for approval is denied for a research proposal, investigators may appeal to the Dean of the Graduate School and Research. The Dean will appoint an ad hoc committee for a second, independent review of the research project. The findings of the ad hoc committee are to be presented to the Committee on Human Subjects in Research no later than ninety

(90)days after receipt of grievance from the investigator, to determine the final decision to approve or not to approve a research project.
