Ethics Committee

At the request of researchers at the Faculty of Arts and Humanities, the Ethics Committee evaluates planned research projects involving human subjects or personal data with regard to ethical and legal aspects and provides academic and peer-oriented advice.

The committee meets at least once per semester. Applications for an ethics review are accepted and processed throughout the year.
 

The office will be closed between 11 December 2026 and 08 January 2027. No applications can be accepted during this period.
