2+academic_integrity: Royal Holloway academic misconduct regulations list requesting or engaging an artificial intelligence tool to write or rewrite work for unfair advantage, and presenting AI-generated content as one’s own unless authorised and acknowledged, as examples of assessment offences.

Presenting content generated by artificial intelligence tools as your own unless specifically authorised in writing as part of the assessment brief and appropriately acknowledged.
4+research: Royal Holloway Doctoral School guidance for postgraduate researchers says AI may not author or generate research claims, thesis prose, or other academic content, and that researchers are responsible for every output they submit.
5+Evidence (en, 3b1a0e17e1f5): Originality: AI may not author or generate research claims, thesis prose or other academic content. Transparency: declare that any AI use is within the permitted guidance outlined in this document. Accountability: you, the student, are responsible for every output that you submit.
6+academic_integrity: Royal Holloway requires students to include declaration statements for generative AI use or non-use, and says a list of all prompts entered into any large language model must be provided.
7+Evidence (en, 760f945e2237): Explicit acknowledgment of use of generative AI tools such as Large Language Models like Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini or ChatGPT or any other media generated through similar tools is required.
