The
Committee for the Protection of Human Subjects (CPHS) is charged with reviewing all proposals that involve using human subjects to provide data
for faculty or student research involving external funding or scholarly presentations or publications. Each proposal must be submitted to the CPHS using
the
Human Subjects Application. The application must be completed online and then printed, signed, scanned, and submitted electronically to
Angela Hartmann. Normally, faculty should expect a two week turn-around following the application
submission.
Even if you think your project is exempt from CPHS review, only someone from the committee is empowered to make that decision. Failure to submit
required research projects to the CPHS for review is a violation of UH system policy and federal regulations.
