11 # University of Exeter AI policy record
2+teaching: University of Exeter follows a four-tier GenAI assessment model from 2025-26: AI-integrated, AI-assisted, AI-minimal, and AI-prohibited.
3+Evidence (en-GB, 660a29b5aa3c): From the start of the 2025-26 academic year, the University of Exeter follows a four-tier approach to GenAI use in assessments: AI-integrated, AI-assisted, AI-minimal, AI-prohibited.
4+academic_integrity: For AI-integrated and AI-assisted assessments, Exeter requires students to include AI prompts and, where possible, hyperlinks to outputs in their references.
5+Evidence (en-GB, 660a29b5aa3c): For AI-integrated and AI-assisted assessments, you must include prompts and, where possible, hyperlinks to outputs as part of your list of references.
6+research: Since 1 August 2024, Exeter requires postgraduate researchers to include a GenAI statement in their upgrade portfolio and final thesis, and will assume no GenAI was used if the statement is missing.
7+Evidence (en-GB, 617da000c045): From 1 August 2024, all Postgraduate Researchers (PGR) must include a statement in their upgrade portfolio and final thesis. This statement must confirm if and how they have used Generative AI (GenAI) in their work. If you do not include this statement, the University will assume you have not used any GenAI tools. The statement must be placed at the end of the upgrade or thesis/dissertation documents, before the reference list.
8+academic_integrity: Exeter says AI-minimal assessments allow AI only for spelling and grammar checking, and AI-prohibited assessments do not allow GenAI tools.
9+Evidence (en-GB, 660a29b5aa3c): AI-minimal – where you may use AI tools for checking spelling and grammar mistakes only, with no other impact on the structure or content of the assessment. AI-prohibited – you must not use GenAI tools as their use prevents achievement of the Intended Learning Outcomes.
10+academic_integrity: Exeter's GenAI referencing guidance requires recording both direct and indirect uses of GenAI outputs, including prompts and hyperlinks used for the assignment.
11+Evidence (en-GB, 3311252ded69): You need to record direct and indirect use of Generative AI outputs. For AI-Integrated and AI-Assisted assessments, you must keep a record of all AI prompts and hyperlinks used for your assignment.
12+research: Exeter says postgraduate researchers may use AI in research, but only in line with the University AI policy, Doctoral College AI regulations, and critical scrutiny and research oversight.
13+Evidence (en-GB, 3895092c8a62): Yes, you can use artificial intelligence (AI) as part of your research. It must however be used in line with the University of Exeter Artificial Intelligence policy, the Doctoral College regulations on the use of AI in research assessments, and the University guidance on the use of AI, Enabling AI at Exeter. The key principle is that any use of AI must be accompanied by critical scrutiny and research oversight, because you, as the researcher, remain responsible for any research outputs and assessments.
14+ai_tool_treatment: Exeter's central AI guidance says staff, students, and researchers should use the University AI policy when using, developing, or procuring AI tools for University purposes, and the AI Catalogue lists approved tools.
15+Evidence (en-GB, 8c4c62ee2ab0): The University of Exeter’s Artificial Intelligence policy sets out clear principles for using AI at Exeter. It supports innovation while ensuring fairness, transparency and compliance with data protection and ethical standards. All staff, students and researchers should refer to the policy when using, developing or procuring an AI tool for University purposes. The AI Catalogue is a dynamic list of approved AI tools for staff, students and researchers.
