Three types of New Projects may be submitted in IRBNet for Administrative Review: requests for human research determinations, reports of emergency use of a test article, and requests to use an external IRB. (For more information, see Administrative Review in IRB Policy Manual Review Types.)

When University and affiliate faculty, students, or staff believe a project/activity does not constitute research or does not involve human participants, or to receive documentation that a project does not require exempt or IRB review, the new project may be submitted following instructions for a human research determination.
