For projects that involve human or animal subjects, IRB or IACUC approval is required, as appropriate, prior to receiving funding and implementing the proposed work. IRB is required for projects that include surveying or interviewing subjects or participants on or off the UT campus. IACUC approval is required for projects that involve the study, survey, or interviewing of non-human vertebrate animals.
Approval from either committee is not required prior to proposal submission, but is required prior to disbursement of funds.
