Fee Schedule
Review fees for human subjects research
Research projects involving human subjects that are sponsored by industry or other for-profit companies are assessed a fee for review by IU’s Institutional Review Board.
The fees do not apply if the project recovers full indirect costs at the federally negotiated rate. You and/or your department are responsible for payment of the review fee if the sponsor does not ultimately reimburse for it.
Fee schedule for IU Institutional Review Board review
Please note that contracts negotiated prior to January 1, 2018, are subject to the previous IRB Fee Policy (effective April 1, 2010). Contact the Human Subjects Office if you require a copy of the 2010 IRB Fee Policy.
