ACADEMIC INTEGRITYProf. D. RussellCarleton University
WE HAVE A POLICY!!
“Carleton University is a community of scholars
dedicated to teaching, learning and research. Sound
scholarship rests on a commitment to a code of academic
integrity that stresses principles of honesty, trust, respect,
fairness and responsibility. The university demands
integrity of scholarship from all of its members including
students. The quality and integrity of academic work is
paramount in achieving student success…..”
WHO?
You.
Me (us).
Them - textbooks, papers, references, Wikipedia…
WHAT?
Everything you do… yes, everything!
The work you submit
Your interactions with other students
Your interactions with us* (and them!)
* Many faculty are personally insulted when you cheat in their classes.
WHY?
We want you to learn (but all we can do is teach).
They expect your grades/degree to mean something.
The engineering profession (PEO, CEAB …)
requires you to have certain skills and knowledge to
work as an engineer.
WHERE?
The policy applies to what you do on campus
(actually or virtually)
As students who want to be engineers - everywhere.
HOW?
Plagiarism and referencing - borrow a friends
work or google it.
Examinations - copy, bring in notes, google it, hire
a look-a-like, trick a grad student, blackmail.
Petitions and appeals - forge a doctors note, lie.
May be pre-meditated and planned or a bad
decision under pressure (so avoid pressure)
WHAT WILL HAPPEN?
We will do our best to catch you (see why above)You will have a hearing with an Associate DeanA penalty will be applied - zero on assignment, F in
course, suspension, extra degree requirements, expulsion
A letter of reprimand is placed on file - it will be worse if you do it again.
SO WHAT?“I GOT AWAY WITH IT IN HIGH SCHOOL”
“I DIDN’T MEAN TO”
“I DON’T REALLY NEED TO KNOW THAT”
“IT WAS THE ONLY WAY I COULD PASS”
DO YOUR OWN WORK.
MANAGE YOUR OWN TIME.
LEARN WHAT YOUR CHOSEN PROFESSION EXPECTS YOU TO KNOW.

WorkSmart Campus
Students are considered the equivalent as employees under the Ontario statutes on Health and Safety at Work.
Engineers are the profession directly tied to Health and Safety at Work (HASW) in Canada.
To meet the Faculty’s obligations as your “employer”, to prepare you for summer and Co-op work term employment and to prepare you for your professional requirements on graduation, you will be required to complete the WorkSmart Campus.
