California State University, San Bernardino Office of Academic Research. The Office of Academic Research provides strategic planning and assistance to promote faculty and student research, scholarship, and creative activities that support the educational and service mission of the university.
The California State University, San Bernardino Institutional Review Boards mission is to assure, both in advance and by periodic review, those appropriate steps are taken to protect the rights and welfare of humans participating as subjects in the research. To accomplish this purpose, IRBs use a group peer review process to review research protocols and related materials (e.g., informed consent documents, surveys, interview questions, and protocol design) to ensure the protection of the rights and welfare of human subjects of research.
