IRB Submission Type and Recommendation Tool
IRB Review Type and Protocol Template Recommendation Tool (NET ID Required)
The
IRB Submission Type and Recommendation Tool
is a Qualtrics-based tool developed by the Rutgers IRB that asks a series of questions to provide recommendations on which eIRB+ application type and consent templates (if applicable) to use in their human subjects research submissions. It also provides insights into the level of IRB Review that the study may qualify for and information about the applicability of consent/HIPAA Authorization waivers.
A Recommendation Summary is provided upon completion.
Please note:
Recommendation Summaries are not an official determination by the IRB and are provided for guidance purposes only.
Engagement in Research Tool
Engagement in Research Tool (NET ID Required)
With the permission of the Ohio State University IRB, Rutgers has adapted and modified OSU’s original version of this tool to utilize Qualtrics and to provide Rutgers specific guidance and insights into an external site’s engagement in research.
The purpose of the Engagement in Research Tool is to use branching logic to provide Rutgers investigators with insights as to whether a collaborating, external (non-Rutgers) site is "engaged in research."
Upon completion of this tool, a Recommendation Summary is provided.
Please note
Recommendation Summaries are not an official determination by the IRB and are provided for guidance purposes only.
Non-Human Research Self-Certification Tool (HRP-310b)
Rutgers Non-Human Self-Certification Form Online (NET ID Required)
The purpose of the Non-Human Research Self-Certification Tool (HRP-310b) is to provide support to Rutgers Investigators when determining if a project is Human Research requiring IRB review. This tool asks a series of questions about the proposed project activities and based on your responses, issues a self-certification or directs you to contact the IRB for assistance.
WARNING
The self-certification is for internal Rutgers-use only (i.e., self-certifications cannot be used for grant submissions).
Do not
use this Self-Certification Tool if any of the following applies to your project:
Federally funded research
Biospecimens
FDA-Regulated Drugs, Devices, Or Biologics
Stem Cells
Research involving a Formal Agreements Between Institutions to Obtain or Use data (data use agreement)
International Sites, Subjects, or Data
Studies involving Undergraduate Principal Investigators
Instead, submit your project to the Rutgers IRB using
eIRB
Please note:
IRB Staff

what has been submitted in this self-certification online form.
Non-Human Research Self-Certification
, rather than an official
Rutgers IRB Non-Human Research (NHR) Determination
, may not satisfy requirements imposed by other organizations/institutions, sponsors, or professional journals.
Collaborative Research Tool
Collaborative Research Resource Tool (Net ID Required)
The purpose of the Collaborative Research Tool is to provide guidance on how to facilitate the eIRB+ submission of collaborative research between Rutgers University and an external (non-Rutgers) site. Based on user responses, this tool generates a summary that provides guidance about the relevant eIRB+ application type and provides insights on how to submit a collaborative research study to the Rutgers IRB.
Please note: The Collaborative Research Tool summary provides guidance and should not be viewed or used as an official determination by the Rutgers IRB.
