Kilgore College Research Protocols

Research is a systematic investigation, including research development, testing and evaluation, designed to develop or contribute to generalizable knowledge.  Generalizable knowledge typically indicates that the results will be included in a thesis or dissertation, published, or presented at a conference. 

Any activity meeting the definition of research above and that involves human subjects attending or employed by Kilgore College (i.e., human beings or data related to human beings), excluding certain exemptions, is subject to College approval.  While KC has no formal institutional review board (IRB) process, all requests will be evaluated by College personnel who have expertise in research and/or the research topic, under the coordination of the vice president of institutional planning.

For more information, see the “Kilgore College Research Protocols” Word document.
