Academic Integrity and Artificial Intelligence
Students are expected to adhere to the principles of academic integrity throughout the course. All assignments, reports, projects, and examinations must represent the student's own work, and all sources must be properly acknowledged. Artificial intelligence (AI) tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini) may only be used as permitted by the instructor for educational support purposes. AI-generated content must not replace the student's own understanding, analysis, or original work. Any use of AI tools should be appropriately disclosed, and students remain fully responsible for the accuracy, originality, and integrity of all submitted work. Violations of academic integrity will be handled in accordance with the University's academic regulations.
