Standard operating procedures

All our research must comply with the relevant legislation and should follow best practice guidelines.

These standard operating procedures (SOPs) cover the key research project activities.

Each SOP has a summary explaining when it was last updated and whether it applies to any particular types of research. Not all of the procedures apply to every project.

If you have problems accessing any of the files, find any broken links or would like further information you can email ethics@mmu.ac.uk.
