Research O ce
The O ce of Research supports and fosters
all research conducted by RRU students and faculty members. This o ce works with both students and faculty to help them understand and follow the Royal Roads Research Ethics Policy.
Most research conducted at RRU, whether by
a faculty member or a student (either for a major research paper or for a course assignment), requires an ethical review by the Royal Roads University Research Ethics board. The only situation in which a researcher would not be required
to complete an ethical review is one where
all of the information gathered in the research comes from publicly available publications, rather than from humans. Failure to comply
with the requirements of the Research Ethics Policy will normally result in a student not being academically eligible to graduate.
if you are enrolled in a program which requires you to complete a research project, you will receive information about working with the O ce
of Research from your program area.

"It's imperative that you get involved outside of the classroom. Meeting new people, trying your hand at new challenges and building your experience not only makes your year positive, but it enhances overall student life as well. Join a club or committee or just volunteer your time.
The biggest learning experiences during my time at RRU weren't directly from a lecture
or a reading, but were a combination of study, volunteering and getting involved with the student body. Test your limits and see how much you can learn and experience by connecting with others and giving of yourself."
