Academic Integrity at Brandeis University
As stated in Brandeis University's mission statement, "the University that carries the name of the justice who stood for the rights of individuals must be distinguished by academic excellence, by truth pursued wherever it may lead, and by awareness of the power and responsibilities that come with knowledge."
Every member of the Brandeis University community is expected to maintain the highest standards of academic integrity. A student is required to submit work that is the result of the student's own effort. The purpose of this web site is to provide education about issues of academic integrity, as well as related resources for students and faculty.
