The Surveying of Griffith Students and Staff Policy states that formal approval must be obtained prior to conducting any survey (or any type of feedback mechanisms) for research and/or business purposes of Griffith staff or students.
If you intend to invite any members of the Griffith community to take part in your research or give feedback, please complete the research application form to request approval from our team. Depending on the research you are conducting, as part of the application process you may be asked to upload the following information:
- A copy of your approved ethics application questionnaire, if applicable (you can download this from RIMS)
- A copy of the questions you intend to ask in your study or survey
- A copy of your participant information sheet, or survey front page
For more information, email the Communications and Surveys team at surveys@griffith.edu.au.
For more information on research ethics, integrity and compliance visit the Research Integrity website.
External applicants
Griffith is no longer accepting applications from external organisations. If you do not work or study at Griffith and would like to include our community of staff, students or alumni in your study, please seek a researcher at Griffith who will collaborate with you on your project.

Application processing time
Applications can take from 2 to 5 working days for approval, dependent on the complexity of the application and the approvals required. Approval is obtained in accordance with the Surveying of Griffith Students and Staff Policy.
Volunteer for important research projects broadcast
At the end of each month, we publish a list of research projects and ask the staff and student community to participate.
As a guide, a study needs to be approved by the 25th of each month to be included in the next Broadcast on Griffith Staff News and myGriffith.
It is possible to advertise research projects up to three times in one calendar year, at the request of the researcher.
