Academic Integrity

Academic integrity is about being honest in the way you do your scholarly work.  

Essentially, it is the set of rules you must follow to be good citizens of the academic community. You will have many assignments (research papers, essays, lab reports, proposals, slide presentations, and others), and you will have to make sure that what you pass in for evaluation is completely your own, and that contributions of others (your sources) are used and acknowledged properly.  

The Writing Centre staff are faculty members, staff members, and senior students who can help you with academic integrity issues. Please email writingc@dal.ca for an appointment.
