Submission of Protocols Instructions for Faculty and Staff

In alignment with Federal guidelines, beginning June 1st, 2024, all investigators within our institution—comprising faculty, staff, undergraduate and graduate students, principals, and co-investigators—must have completed CITI training. If you have any concerns or questions or want to discuss this policy further, please email the IRB Chair, Young Do Kim at ykim4@elon.edu.

Students may not serve as a PI for an IRB study. They should work with a faculty mentor who will serve as PI and be responsible for the oversight of the study.

The document below provides instructions for accessing and navigating Elon University’s electronic submission system for IRB protocol review and approval. If you have questions about this process, please contact Young Do Kim, IRB Chair (x5352; ykim4@elon.edu).
