At Brock, academic integrity refers to your acknowledgment of and respect for the academic principles and behaviours that support the University’s mission. Developing your academic integrity skills is an important step to achieving your academic success. You need to know what “working with integrity” entails (it’s about more than just avoiding plagiarism), and there are many services and supports on campus to help you.

As a Brock community member, you are responsible for your behaviour toward others. Be a good example and monitor your own behaviour for negative impact on others. If you are uncertain about whether something is acceptable, ask for advice. Staff members in the HRE are available by appointment to give you confidential advice. You also assume the responsibility of informing any guest that you invite to our campus about Brock’s policies on conduct, including the Respectful Work and Learning Environment Policy.
