The Office of Academic Integrity (OAI) is a promotional and educational unit that communicates the importance of academic integrity and the core value of integrity at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ. We work with various faculties, students, instructors, and academic support units to promote information and resources to make integrity-aligned decisions.
The OAI established in 2008 in response to the recommendations outlined in the report: "Toward a Level Playing Field: Enhancing Academic Integrity at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ" (PDF).
Some of the initiatives the OAI is involved in include:
- Custom presentations and workshops to undergraduate and graduate students during orientation and in-class
- The Undergraduate Academic Integrity Module, an open access online module designed to introduce students to the values of integrity
- The re-design and support for the Graduate Academic Integrity Module (Grad AIM), a mandatory module for all new graduate students
- Academic Integrity modules for students in STEM
- Academic Integrity Competency Mapping, a project designed to identify and implement academic integrity skills at the first-year level
- Promoting the educational uses of Turnitin through workshops and presentations
- Academic Integrity Remedial Workshops are for students who've committed academic misconduct. These workshops are only accessible to students referred to take it by their Associate Dean
