academic_integrity

UCL uses a 3-category assessment framework for GenAI: Category 1 requires own work only; Category 2 permits GenAI with acknowledgement; Category 3 includes essential GenAI use as part of the assessment.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence95%Evidence1Languagesen

ai_tool_treatment

UCL designates Microsoft Copilot as its approved GenAI tool due to its enhanced data protection, positioning it as a more secure alternative to other GenAI services.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence95%Evidence1Languagesen

academic_integrity

UCL defines academic misconduct in the context of GenAI as gaining an unfair advantage over other students; there is no single list of fair and unfair uses as it depends on the assessment category.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence90%Evidence1Languagesen

teaching

UCL provides Studiosity, a GenAI-powered service available 24/7 to all current students at all levels of study, to support academic writing and referencing skills.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence90%Evidence1Languagesen

academic_integrity

UCL permits using GenAI to help with spelling, grammar, and language tone in assessments, but it must not change the content and meaning of what the student has written.
