Academic Integrity
Manchester Metropolitan University's 2025/26 Academic Misconduct Policy treats unauthorised generative AI use in assessment, where a student attempts to gain an unfair advantage by passing it off as their own work, as academic misconduct that may be investigated under the policy.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: unauthorised-ai-passing-off-may-be-academic-misconduct
Original evidence
Evidence 1Where a student has made unauthorised use of generative artificial intelligence within their assessment and has attempted to gain an unfair advantage by passing this work off as their own. The severity of the offence, and consequently the penalty, will depend on the student’s academic level, whether it is a first or subsequent offence, and the level of use.
Ai Tool Treatment
Manchester Metropolitan University tells students to check the assessment brief for specific instructions on generative AI, says they should only use AI as directed, and says they cannot use it to create the assessment itself.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: assessment-brief-specific-ai-use
Original evidence
Evidence 1You should always check the assessment brief for specific instructions. The key principles to work to are: Your work should always authentically represent your capabilities. You should never trust the outputs of generative AI uncritically. You cannot use it to create the assessment itself.
Privacy
Manchester Metropolitan University's teaching guidance says it has opted out of enabling AI-generated text detection software for the foreseeable future and tells colleagues not to upload student work into online AI detection services because they are unreliable and the uploaded data is not secure.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: no-online-ai-detection-upload-of-student-work
Original evidence
Evidence 1Like the overwhelming majority of UK higher education institutions, Manchester Met has opted out of enabling this software as a means of detecting generative AI for the foreseeable future. Colleagues must not upload student work into an online AI detection service. These are not reliable and the data uploaded is not secure.
Ai Tool Treatment
Manchester Metropolitan University's teaching guidance identifies Microsoft Copilot as the approved generative AI tool for generating text and images, available to staff and students for free with university credentials.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: microsoft-copilot-approved-generative-ai-tool
Original evidence
Evidence 1The University’s approved generative AI tool that can be used to generate text and images is Microsoft Copilot. Staff and students can use the tool for free with their university credentials.
Academic Integrity
Manchester Metropolitan University library guidance says some generative AI uses do not need citation, but documented AI-assisted search strategies, approved research-project AI use, AI-generated media in submitted assessments, and AI-generated code or Excel formulas must be cited or referenced.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: generative-ai-referencing-depends-on-use
Original evidence
Evidence 1If you have been granted approval to use generative AI tools in your research project, you must cite and reference the AI tool as well as keep a record of how you used the tool including prompts and outputs. ... If using AI tools to generate code or Excel formulas you must cite and reference the AI tool.
