Take me to My Applications |
From 24 November 2025, the Ethics RM system will have a refreshed design and new navigation layout. The application process for AHREC, UAHPEC, AEC and BSC committees is not changing.
From February 2026, applications for AHREC and UAHPEC will use a new combined Ethics RM application form. This form will align with the Updated Human Ethical Guidelines, which is currently available and will take effect at the same time. These changes are part of the Research Ethics Improvement Plan.
Welcome to the University of Auckland EthicsRM System where you can create and manage applications for the following Committees:
- University of Auckland Human Participant Ethics Committee (UAHPEC)
- Auckland Health Research Ethics Committee (AHREC)
- Animal Ethics Committee (AEC)
