Ethics

These pages provide access to the University's Ethics Policy which sets out the ethical principles and procedures for ethical review and approval that all researchers at the University of Worcester, staff and student, must adhere to.  It also highlights the procedures for approval that researchers wishing to work with NHS patients, staff or premises must follow.  In addition they direct you to the key ethical frameworks and guidelines provided by external bodies, both general and subject-specific, of which researchers should be aware and to legislation which may be relevant to your research (as well as providing some guidance to this legislation).

The main documents for gaining ethical approval can be found in the documents list on the left.
