All forms of academic misconduct are regarded as an offence and are punishable under the University’s Code of Student Conduct. Suspected cases are investigated by one of the University’s network of School and College Academic Misconduct Officers ( SAMOS / CAMOS ) who are responsible for the investigation at School or College level, and for determining appropriate penalties.

The University’s Accessible and Inclusive Learning Policy allows you to make audio recordings of classes but does not allow you to share and distribute these recordings with a third party. AI-based translation apps retain and process recordings in a way that is not allowed in this policy. They can also negatively effect the group dynamic in tutorials and seminars. As a result, you must not use third-party AI-based translation apps in class.

Before using GenAI in any assessed work, please check whether there are any restrictions. This should be mentioned in the assessment task. If not, then ask your Course Organiser. Some assessments may explicitly ask you to work with AI tools and to analyse and critique the content it generates. Other assessments may specify, for good reason, that AI tools should not be used in particular ways.

Many vendors are adding AI features to existing software. Treat these as new capabilities that require governance. Do not enable them by default. For systematic or large-scale adoption (including AI in third-party apps or the introduction of AI into an existing platform) for non-research activities, follow the approval process via the ISG Ethics Board, and complete required impact assessments. For Research use of AI follow your normal College Research Ethics Board process. Consider using the AI Impact Assessment guidance to frame decisions, and complete, where appropriate: Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) Equality Impact Assessment (EQIA)

The University does not ban the use of generative AI in your research, though its use is restricted for work assessed by the University. Some programmes and disciplines may also restrict its use in other ways. Always check with your supervisors and any programme-level guidelines. If you are considering using generative AI for research in conference papers, posters and publications, you should also consult any guidelines provided by the conference organiser or publisher and make any appropriate declarations. If you are a funded student, check whether your funder stipulates any additional restrictions.
