Non-CUNY Researchers

Non-CUNY Researchers - are researchers who have no CUNY affiliation. Adjuncts without full-time CUNY appointments are also considered Non-CUNY affiliated.

Please note that Non-CUNY researchers can only be listed as a PI if they are conducting exempt research. If they are conducting expedited or full-board research, they will need to submit an application with a CUNY Affiliated Person (full-time faculty or staff) as a Co-PI.

Only CUNY faculty or staff members with University or RFCUNY-paid appointments may serve as the PI or faculty advisor on a research project involving human subjects that is carried out under the auspices of CUNY and is not exempt from the Federal Regulations.

Please contact the HRPP Administrator if you have any questions regarding this policy.
