Georgia Tech aims to cultivate a community based on trust, academic integrity, and honor. Students are expected to act according to the highest ethical standards. Review the  Student Code of Conduct and the Academic Honor Code, especially Appendix A: Graduate Addendum to the Academic Honor Code.

A Teaching Assistant (TA) at Georgia Tech holds a dual role, serving both as a student and an instructional team member. Because of this, TAs are held to the same standards of academic integrity that govern all students at the Institute. These expectations extend to every aspect of their TA responsibilities, including, but not limited to, grading, handling course materials, supporting instruction, and interacting with students. Any breach of academic integrity while fulfilling TA duties is subject to the same institutional policies, procedures, and consequences that apply to students in their academic work.
