AI and Its Role in Global University’s Degree Programs
|
|
Artificial intelligence is advancing rapidly, offering students
time-saving opportunities in completing assigned academic work. However, using AI to complete academic work undermines the very purpose and value of education and prevents the development of scholarship skills and the acquisition of knowledge. Misusing AI technology, therefore, threatens both the legitimacy of education and the competence of graduates.
In response, Global University is implementing the following policy as a first version by Global
University regarding the use of generative Artificial Intelligence software, such as LLMs (e.g., ChatGPT, PaLM API and MakerSuite): |
|
 |
|
| Using |
| Using any AI LLM to create or improve content for any academic assignment is unauthorized without prior written
approval from the faculty facilitating the related course. |
|
| Written Approval |
Faculty may grant written approval for AI LLM use in response to a written request submitted by a student if the request includes:
- Identification of the course and assignment for which the AI LLM will be used.
- A detailed description of how the AI LLM will be used, including the anticipated results of this use and how it will be integrated into fulfilling the assignment’s requirements.
- A description of how any information acquired through generative AI will be verified.
- An explanation of how AI LLM use will enhance experience and fulfill learning objectives in an academically legitamate way.
|
|
| Misuse |
| Unapproved use of AI software in completing academic assignments will be considered misuse and will result in a failing grade for that assignment. |
|
| Disapprove |
| Faculty are instructed to disapprove the use of all AI software unless a convincing and well-informed rationale is presented by the student regarding the educational value of
its limited use. |
|
|
 |
 |
Depending on the severity of the offense,
disciplinary action for failing to maintain academic integrity can range from lowering a paper’s grade to dismissal from the program. |
