UC San Diego Extension (Extension) values life-long learning and the opportunity to serve individuals, organizations and the community by providing continuing education and degree-related programs that support academic, professional, economic and social development. Extension expects that academic study will be applied with honesty, responsibility to scholarship and with original thought. This is a shared responsibility between the Instructors, the Students and the administration.

The University and Extension expect both Instructors and Students to honor this principle and in so doing protect the validity of University intellectual work. For Students, all academic work will be done by the individual to whom it is assigned. For instructors, they will exercise the planning and supervising of academic work so that academic integrity will be upheld.
