Academic integrity emanates from a culture that embraces the core values of trust and honesty necessary for full learning to occur. As a student-centered public research university, the University of North Texas promotes the integrity of the learning process by establishing and enforcing academic standards. Academic dishonesty breaches the mutual trust necessary in an academic environment and undermines all scholarship. See UNT Policy 18.1.16.

Effective Fall 2013 Academic Affairs and the Dean of Students office will be collaborating on issues of Academic Integrity. The Dean of Students office will serve as the front door for reporting incidents and the Academic Integrity Officer will work with faculty and students regarding the investigation. Please submit all issues of Academic Integrity to academic.integrity@unt.edu.
