The online Ethical Review system is a management process for all research applications including student projects on postgraduate research courses. The system includes:
- Embedded advice and guidance for applicants
- An integrated risk-assessment tool to identify projects that can be self-certified as low risk
- The introduction of a generic review process for low-risk projects on postgraduate research courses
- An embedded records management system
- Improved data security
