External Researchers to Nipissing University
If you are external to Nipissing University/Canadore College and wish to conduct research with Nipissing or Canadore faculty, staff or students, you must first obtain (1) institutional authorization from the Office of the Provost & Vice-President, Academic & Research (request form here), and then (2) ethical approval from the Nipissing University Research Ethics Board.
Once you have obtained a signed institutional authorization form, you can request ethical approval by completing an Institution Approval Request using the ROMEO system (see link above). You will need to attach your home institution’s approved protocol, ethical clearance letter/certificate, and all corresponding appendices.
Research with Canadore College
Please note that NUREB approval does not signify authorization from Canadore College to participate. Nipissing University acts as their REB and reviews files for ethical compliance only. Prior to submitting your application to the NUREB, you should contact Canadore College directly regarding their willingness to participate. Proof of institutional authorization should be included in the application as a condition of final approval.
Please contact the Research Office for institutional authorization: research.centre@canadorecollege.ca.
