The Academic Integrity Modules focus on building positive practices and skills when it comes to presenting your assessment work, but academic integrity also includes the choices you make while a student at Victoria University

Understanding the concepts of cheating, plagiarism, theft, falsifying records, and contract cheating will enable you to make positive decisions regarding your study behaviours.
