UNSW is privileged to be one of the rare institutions globally that does not expect its academics to engage in integrity-related investigations of their students. In this seminar, Shaun will cover the university’s processes for referring academic integrity concerns. He will also provide tips on how to put together a high-quality referral in as little time as possible.
