Projects cannot proceed unless approval has been obtained, so allow enough time for this submission. When you have received notice of approval, a copy of the letter must be lodged with the Undergraduate Liaison Officer, Clayton campus, Ms Rachael Przesmycki. Use of Psychology undergraduates as subjects The Department of Psychology has established a subject pool from which our undergraduate students may be approached by other students or staff for participation in research. It will not be possible to enter laboratory classes or lectures to ask for volunteers. Please see your supervisor for inquiries about gaining access to the subject pool.
Students can also place advertisements around the campus to recruit participants.
For financial reasons, the department is no longer able to support the payment of participants. All 4th year projects involving animals as subjects will require submission to and approval of the Animal Ethics Experimentation Committee. Such projects cannot proceed unless approval has been obtained so allow enough time for this submission. The onus is on you to ensure that your supervisor informs you when approval has been obtained. When your supervisor has received notice of approval, a copy of the letter must be lodged with the Animal Ethics Officer, Ms Cheryl Roberts.
