The Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI)

The Graduate School recognizes the evolving landscape of generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools and their increasing use in higher education. Certain uses of such tools may be suitable to support and enhance scholarly activities in certain disciplines or in specific courses, assignments and projects. At the same time, there are significant unresolved legal and ethical considerations about the use of these tools with respect to privacy, copyright, authorship, and intellectual property that have direct academic integrity implications. Faculty and students are expected to maintain the highest standards of academic integrity and transparency in all scholarly activities, whether generative AI tools are used or not. Decisions, attribution and any guidance regarding the use of such AI tools rest with the course instructor and may vary according to the course activity within the context of a given discipline . Failure to comply with course AI policies/allowances, which includes improper citation, will result in consequences outlined in the Violations of Academic Conduct policy.
