Academic Honesty Pledge

In accepting my position at the UC San Diego Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, I acknowledge my responsibility for ensuring the integrity of course work and examinations undertaken while at the University. I am aware that the large amount of autonomy and trust afforded me in my professional training is done so with the expectation that I will conduct myself in an honest and professional manner. I pledge to uphold the principles of academic integrity. I will expect my fellow students to uphold these principles also and consider it my responsibility to report any academic dishonesty that I observe.

Students are expected to complete the course in compliance with the instructor's standards. No student shall engage in any activity that involves attempting to receive a grade by means other than honest effort; for example:

• No student shall knowingly access, procure, provide, or accept any unauthorized information regarding questions or answers to any examination, quiz, or assignment to be given at a subsequent time.
• No student shall complete, in part or in total, any examination, assignment, or sign-in attendance for another person.
• No student shall knowingly allow any examination or assignment to be completed, in part or in total, nor sign-in for events on the student’s behalf, by another person.
• No student shall plagiarize or copy the work of another person and submit it with the student’s own work.
• No student shall employ aids excluded by the instructor in undertaking course work or in completing any exam or assignment.
• No student shall alter graded class assignments or examinations and then resubmit
• them for re-grading.
• No student shall submit substantially the same material in more than one course without prior authorization.
• No student shall falsify information or data and submit that as factual information.
