Departure from Academic Integrity
Last updated in October 2023, two sections apply to the use of artificial intelligence:
- Section 2.2.2: Plagiarism – presenting ideas, words, or work, created by others or by technological assistance, as if they are one’s own or without proper attribution/citation.
- Section 2.2.3: Unauthorized Content Generation – is the production of academic work, in whole or in part, for academic credit, progression, or award, using unapproved or undeclared human or technological assistance.
