Academic Integrity
For study work, Heidelberg University requires students to submit an independence and AI-use declaration that discloses AI tool use and includes an overview of the tools used and their purposes.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: ai_use_disclosure_required_for_study_work
Original evidence
Evidence 1Studierende müssen für alle Studienarbeiten eine Eigenständigkeits- und Kennzeichnungserklärung abgeben, die den Einsatz von KI-Werkzeugen offenlegt. Diese Kennzeichnungspflicht gilt für Text/Textteile, Bilder, Videos und Musikstücke sowie alle anderen Elemente, für deren Erstellung KI verwendet wurde. Eine Übersicht der genutzten KI-Tools und deren Verwendungszweck ist verpflichtend.

Research
For doctoral dissertations, Heidelberg Graduate Academy guidance requires AI tool use to be disclosed with when, where, why, and to what extent it was used, and treats AI tools as assistive instruments rather than substitutes for independent intellectual work.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: doctoral_ai_use_requires_disclosure_and_remains_assistive
Original evidence
Evidence 1The use of AI tools must be explicitly disclosed, specifying when, where, why, and to what extent they were employed in the preparation of the dissertation. AI tools must be used as assistive instruments, not as substitutes for independent intellectual work, critical thinking, or scholarly judgment.
