Academic Integrity
Importance of Academic Integrity
Academic integrity refers to the upholding of ethical and moral behavior as it relates to academic pursuits including academic assignments, exams, and other works associated with the College and a student's learning experience. Academic dishonesty is the opposite of academic integrity and includes acts of plagiarism and cheating, which are prohibited per the Cuyahoga Community College Student Handbook.
Students can learn more about maintaining academic integrity by working with their faculty members, developing a deep understanding of their course syllabi, and utilizing College resources such as tutoring and the Writing Center.
