Office of Research Integrity & Compliance

The Research Integrity and Compliance Office represents the UL Lafayette community’s commitment to responsible research by requiring that all research conducted on campus regardless of funding source, be reviewed by an appropriate regulatory committee and that research be conducted in accordance with regulations. This process protects research participants, researchers, students, research resources, and UL Lafayette’s research environment. This is the centralized office overseeing the primary compliance areas of: Research involving human participants (IRB); Research involving animals (IACUC); Conflicts of Interest (COI); Export Compliance; Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) - Research Ethics.
