Student Academic Integrity

Academic misconduct can seriously jeopardize your academic career, your future, and, if you are an international student, your ability to stay in Australia to study.

It is the responsibility of everyone at the ANU to uphold and promote fundamental principles of quality and integrity in scholarly work. It is the responsibility of each individual student to ensure that:

  • they are familiar with the Code of Practice for Student Academic Integrity and the definitions of breaches of the Code
  • they are familiar with the expectations for academic honesty both in general, and in the specific context of particular disciplines or courses
  • work submitted for assessment is genuine and original
  • appropriate acknowledgement and citation is given to the work of others
  • they do not knowingly assist other students in academically dishonest practice.
  • When in doubt about anything, ask and ask early - don't leave it until the assignment due date. Your lecturers, tutors and College administration staff are here to help you.
