Integrity for Waterloo faculty

Your department, faculty, and the university will support you in your efforts to ensure a level playing field for your students through course construction, academic integrity-related education and, when necessary, disciplinary action.

As faculty, you are required to report any instances of academic misconduct - even relatively minor cases, or ones which you prefer to handle informally. Discipline cases will be handled relative to their severity – there is an option for minor first offenders to attend an Academic Integrity workshop as discipline that gives them information so they can avoid committing a second offence.
