KU Leuven research guidance says GenAI use needs to be reported transparently whenever new output is generated in scientific publications, project applications, or doctoral theses.
KU Leuven safe-use guidance warns users to be careful with unsupported AI tools and not to enter personal data, confidential information, IP-sensitive data, or copyrighted material.
KU Leuven guidance says strictly confidential data should use only Copilot logged in with a KU Leuven account, and confidential or strictly confidential data require a security check if another AI tool is needed.
KU Leuven identifies Copilot logged in with a KU Leuven account as its recommended GenAI tool, citing contractual data protection, Enterprise technical security, and Microsoft not using entered data for further training.
KU Leuven teaching guidance expects teaching staff to clearly inform students whether GenAI may be used for assignments and expects students to be transparent about GenAI use so assessment can be fair and correct.
KU Leuven student guidance says clear misuse of GenAI, where output is largely generated by GenAI and the student is not transparent about tool use, can be considered an irregularity under Article 84 of the Education and Examination Regulations.
KU Leuven student guidance says students remain fully responsible for what they submit and must ensure assignments allow teaching staff to assess their acquired competences.
KU Leuven permits and encourages responsible, critical use of generative AI in teaching and research, framing it as a complement to critical thinking and professional expertise rather than a replacement.
