Human Subject Resarch (IRB)

UTEP has one Institutional Review Board responsible for protecting human subjects participating in research. The IRB provides review and oversight for all human subjects research activities performed:

• by University of Texas at El Paso faculty, staff, or students on or off campus; and
• by all other facilities under the purview of UTEP IRB
• All review procedures meet or exceed the requirements set forth in § 45 CFR 46

The UTEP IRB convenes monthly.

The IRB uses the IRBNet suite of tools. All research studies submitted for IRB review at UTEP must be submitted via IRBNet.
