Academic Integrity

University's academic integrity policy and procedures can be found at: http://academicintegrity.rutgers.edu.

Adherence to these principles is necessary in order to ensure that:

• everyone is given proper credit for their ideas, words, results, and other scholarly accomplishments;
  
• all student work is fairly evaluated and no student has an inappropriate advantage over others;
  
• the academic and ethical development of all students is fostered; and
  
• the reputation of the university for integrity in its teaching, research, and scholarship is maintained and enhanced.
  

Failure to uphold these principles of academic integrity threatens both the reputation of the university and the value of the degrees awarded to its students. Every member of the university community therefore bears a responsibility for ensuring that the highest standards of academic integrity are upheld.
