In addition, the Faculty’s assignment cover sheet requires students to declare their use of AI tools, where this is permitted by a teacher for the purposes of an assignment. Failure to do so constitutes academic misconduct akin to plagiarism, and will be treated in the same manner.

When a teacher is satisfied that submitted work contains plagiarism or involves the misuse of generative and other AI tools, and that an educative response (usually involving re-writing and re-submission with a penalty) is not appropriate, then an academic response will be adopted, pursuant to which the plagiarized work may be given a mark of zero or a reduced mark. In addition, the matter may be treated as a disciplinary offence (just like the case of cheating during an examination) and referred to the University’s Disciplinary Committee under Statute XXXI of the University’s Statutes and the Disciplinary Committee Regulations.

11. Use of GenAI for ideation and background research is only acceptable if • this specific usage of the GenAI system is duly documented and acknowledged; • the researcher has verified the accuracy, fairness, and originality (or lack of originality) of text, figures, table and data generated by a GenAI tool; • the researcher has verified that all relevant external primary sources are cited and represented fully and fairly; and • the use of GenAI does not inevitably disclose patentable inventions.

24. Researchers who do not have adequate training to verify computer algorithms, source code, and perform software testing should not use GenAI to generate computer code for research. They should collaborate with other researchers who have those skills, such that the research team can take responsibility for the resulting software and analysis results.

27. In most academic disciplines, interpretation of data in a research study can be regarded as a core element of intellectual and original contribution of scientific research. The researcher is ultimately accountable for all the claims made in the study. Therefore, in general the use of GenAI in generating content, including text and figures that can be seen as interpretation of research finding is not allowed. If the use of the GenAI tool is unavoidable, it should be limited in scope and duly acknowledged and reported. E. Use of GenAI tools for research output / publication

28. All statements and claims made in a research publication, including a research thesis for degree conferral, are attributed to the named author(s), all of whom are regarded as having endorsed the statements and claims made in the publication. It is critical that all authors take responsibility for the text, figures, tables, modelling, or art forms that are presented in any research output, including publication in journal articles, book chapters, books, conference presentations, exhibitions, or any other dissemination methods. The norms of different academic disciplines may involve different uses of GenAI tools in preparing research publications. However, in all disciplines, the direct us

29. Use of GenAI tools to support language editing and to translate or improve the quality of text written by the author is generally acceptable. However, GenAI generated texts should be reviewed and edited before being incorporated into the thesis/published work. Importantly it is worth noting that direct or extensive use of GenAI tools in the thesis writing process without significant human input is not allowed and may undermine the publishability of the thesis. The author is responsible for verifying the accuracy of the edited or translated text and for eliminating any AI-generated biases. Acknowledgement of this GenAI use should be done in accordance with the editorial policy of specific

32. The use of cloud-based commercial AI platforms has the potential to inadvertently disclose the content of papers or funding applications under review, thus violating the integrity and confidentiality of the established double-blind peer review process. Therefore, the use of GenAI in peer review of research output and funding applications is not acceptable.
