Academic Integrity and the Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence.

You are permitted to use GenAI tools (or a proof-reader or proofreading service) to proofread your work but not permitted to use AI tools in the creation of content for your work. This category will apply irrespective of the fact that the grading criteria include credit for English and grammar.

Using GenAI tools for any purpose other than that described above will amount to academic misconduct.
