The Institutional Review Board (IRB) is currently accepting applications from undergraduate and graduate students to join the IRB. Student members are considered full members of the board, which meets five times a year from 10 am-12 pm on Mondays. The meetings are held during the months of October, December, February, April and June. In addition to meetings, student member review research protocols and vote on issues related to the protection of human subjects.
This is a terrific opportunity to learn about ethical issues related to research; and being a member of the IRB looks good on a CV or resume. Interested students should email Susan Sonnenschein, IRB Chair,
(sonnensc@umbc.edu) to apply. In addition to your CV or resume, describe in your email your research interests and experience.
Additional information about the IRB is found at http://www.umbc.edu/irb/.
