No. At the very least you will submit an IRB Close Out Form upon acceptance of your Dissertation or Doctoral Project by the university (i.e., when the Dean or Dean’s designee approves your final manuscript post the passing of your oral defense).

 

There are other reasons you need to contact the IRB:

  • IRB Change Request Form – If you need to make a change to ANY aspect of your study or project (e.g., a change to a survey interment, informed consent form, where the study or project is taking place, or how participants are being recruited, etc.). The IRB must approve the change(s) before you proceed.
  • IRB Continuing Review Form – Your study or project will be approved for one year. If your study or project will exceed this timeframe, you must submit to the IRB and receive approval to continue.
  • IRB Events Reporting Form – When to use this form is described in detail in the next FAQ.
