Academic Integrity

The academic work of all students in the Global Change course must comply with all University policies on academic honesty. Violations of the Student Conduct Code are subject to disciplinary sanctions by the University. Examples of academic misconduct include:

• Attempting to use unauthorized information in the taking of an exam





• Submitting as one's own work, themes, reports, drawings, laboratory notes, computer programs or other products prepared by another person





• Knowingly assisting another student in obtaining or using unauthorized materials





• Plagiarism

Specifically for the Global Change course, this includes:

• Accepting or providing assistance on quizzes





• Cutting and pasting or otherwise transferring verbatim materials from an outside source without acknowledging the source

Academic honesty policies are included in the Policy on Academic Honesty, Policies and Procedures on Academic Misconduct Investigations, and Code of Computer Ethics. These policies are contained in the Student Information Handbook, which is available from the Dean of Students Website.
