Integrity is loosely defined as an adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; and honesty. Academic integrity means honesty and responsibility in scholarship. Both are critical attributes that translate into one’s current and/or future vocation. How will you “achieve” and “maintain” Academic Integrity while in the program? What does it look like at the graduate level? How “do you” or “will you” ensure you adhere to standards of integrity in your chosen vocation?
