Office of Research Compliance and Proposal Development

Research Compliance (link): If your research involves human participation, animal studies, or rDNA, biological materials, or potentially hazardous agents, approval is necessary by one of these review boards.

Proposal Development (link): Use the Graduate College's Proposal Development services if you are looking for help developing the content of your proposal, or are looking for funding opportunities for your research.

Safety First: A Checklist for Researchers

Publish early and often to ensure that your research qualifies as
"publicly available."
Do not accept restrictions on access to or dissemination of information,
including informal "handshake" agreements with project managers.
Do not provide citizenship, nationality, or visa status information to project sponsors or other third parties, or agree to background checks for project participants.
Do not attend meetings from which foreign nationals are barred.
Do not start work until all agreements have been signed by all parties.
When in doubt, consult with the IIT Office of Sponsored Research and Programs (312.567.3035).

The IIT Graduate College wishes to thank The Berkeleyan, the faculty/staff newspaper of UC Berkeley published by the UCB Office of Public Affairs, for their kind permission to use much of the above checklist.
