Academic Integrity Education and Campus Programming
Academic Integrity education and programming are a vital part of students, faculty, and our campus community understanding the fundamental values of Academic Integrity.
Incoming students complete a required Pre-Arrival Academic Integrity tutorial. Upon completion of the tutorial undergraduates will be able to:
- Define in your own words what academic integrity means to you.
- Outline Columbia's academic integrity policies.
- Recognize when academic integrity issues arise in your own work and how to proactively avoid making a mistake.
- Communicate your issues to appropriate academic and campus resources.
- Learn the importance of asking for help when making choices to uphold integrity.
- Identify the essential academic support resources where you may need to reach out for assistance on academic life and academic integrity.
- Describe and pledge how you will commit to "Wear the Crown with Honor" at Columbia.
Collaborations with Academic Integrity Working Group, CC-SEAS Integrity Advisory Group, & Columbia's Student Councils
Each year, the Academic Integrity Working Group and CC-SEAS Undergraduate Integrity Advisory Board work in collaboration with campus partners and the Columbia College Student Council & Columbia Engineering Student Council Academic Affairs representatives to plan community events focused on integrity.
Some of our key campus events include:
- Global Ethics Day
