This guide brings together information and resources for ARU students, to help you develop good practice in your academic work, and to avoid the risk of committing academic misconduct.
ARU Academic Regulations (2021) define academic misconduct as "the generic term used to define cases where a student(s) has sought to gain unfair academic advantage in the assessment process for him/herself or another student(s)."
Students at ARU also agree to abide by mutually agreed standards outlined in the Student Charter.
Anglia Ruskin University takes a formative approach to the development of good academic skills which will help students avoid types of misonduct, such as assessment offences like plagiarism. There are University Library resources on information and referencing skills, and study support help available to foster good academic practice.
Statements on expectations regarding academic honesty are included in module guides and student handbooks. All new students will be expected to complete the Good Academic Practice Course. New students should access this through one of their key modules on Canvas. If you are not a new student and wish to complete the course please see Useful resources below.
