What is academic integrity?

Academic integrity is the commitment to and demonstration of honest and moral behavior in an academic setting. This is most relevant at the university level as it relates to providing credit to other people when using their ideas. In simplest terms, it requires acknowledging the contributions of other people. Failure to provide such acknowledgement is considered plagiarism.

What is plagiarism?

The act of taking another person’s writing or idea as your own. It is considered a form of academic dishonesty and can have serious consequences for students and researchers who commit it. Plagiarism can be intentional or unintentional, but in either case, it is wrong and should be avoided.
