Click Login

The Office of Research and Innovation provides a centralized system to support research compliance at MSU. Click is the university’s system for managing IRB, IACUC/Animal Operations, Biological Safety (IBC), Radiation Safety, and Stem Cell Safety protocols.

Getting Access

Click uses MSU NetID login and multi-factor authentication (MFA). Access is granted to current faculty, staff, and students.

Other individuals who require access will need to request access as a Click Affiliate. This includes new faculty who have not yet started at MSU, students who are not currently enrolled (e.g. not taking summer classes), and external (non-MSU) researchers. See the sections below for additional information before requesting access as a Click Affiliate.
