Guidelines for the Ethical Use of Artificial Intelligence​
Intended for students and faculty of Tecnologico de Monterrey​

At Tecnologico de Monterrey, we have always considered technology as a fundamental ally in achieving our educational goals. We conceive of technology as a means that, when used properly, promotes the creation of knowledge, enhances access to information, creates opportunities for learning and social well-being, and enriches the educational and creative experience of our community.​

The Guidelines for the Ethical Use of Artificial Intelligence serve as an important reference for adopting and adapting artificial intelligence tools within our educational programs and institutional context. We aim to use these tools proactively and responsibly in all teaching and learning processes.​

We invite you to review these documents.​

For any comments, please write to: integridad.académica@itesm.mx 

Commitment of Tec de Monterrey to the Ethical Use of AI

Aware that learning and ethical reflections regarding the incorporation of AI in the educational field require maintaining an open and fruitful dialogue with other institutions at both national and international levels, we proactively seek to connect with spaces that allow us to stay updated with these discussions.

Learn about some of the efforts in which Tec de Monterrey actively participates:

  • The Rome Call for AI Ethics initiative, which promotes and strengthens the ethical perspective in the use of artificial intelligence tools in collaboration with international organizations, governments, institutions, and the private sector, reaffirming the commitment to use them respecting the principles of transparency, inclusion, responsibility, impartiality, reliability, security, and privacy.
  • The Artificial Intelligence in Educations Summit, held within the framework of the IFE Conference 2025, which brings together leaders and specialists to facilitate interdisciplinary discussions on the role of artificial intelligence in educational practices.
  • The collaboration with the International Center for Academic Integrity, to exchange best practices on the use of artificial intelligence tools while safeguarding academic integrity, among others.
Policy on the Use of AI Tools for Staff or Faculty

If you are a staff member at Tec de Monterrey, familiarize yourself with the Policy on the Use of AI Tools, which establishes a general framework for the ethical, responsible, integral, and secure use and incorporation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools within the Institution.

Our Purpose

To strengthen the culture of academic integrity at Tec de Monterrey, through a set of actions oriented to raise awareness and educate about integrity, as well as provide an effective management of breaches of academic integrity, according to the Academic Regulations of our Institution. 

Awareness

Activities and communication campaigns aimed at the Tec community to promote ethics and responsibility. 

Education

Courses and modules designed to prevent and educate in academic integrity, aimed at students, faculty, collaborators, and members of the Campus Academic Integrity Committees (CIAC). 

Management of breaches of Academic Integrity

Attention and follow-up to students who commit breaches of academic integrity, ensuring compliance with Chapter IX of the Academic Regulations. 

.

.

Our Program 

In 2017, the Academic Dishonesty (DA) Program evolved to become the Academic Integrity Program. 

The purpose of this program is to strengthen the academic integrity at Tecnológico de Monterrey, through a set of actions oriented to raise awareness and educate the community about integrity, to contribute to responsible action in all contexts of institutional life. 

Our mission is to promote a positive approach to issues related to academic honesty and strengthen our commitment to academic excellence. 

Our Values
close

It is the habit of conducting oneself with the truth and of being consistent. In the academic field it is reflected in the commitment to your training process regarding what you know and what you need to learn. 

close

It is the ability to act in accordance with one's own values ​​and convictions, despite fear. Courage can be developed in environments where it is tested; the day-to-day life presents opportunities to make decisions, learn from them, and grow. 

close

It is the ability to be responsible and accountable for your own decisions, actions and omissions in your academic life.

close

Recognize your own value and that of others, not treating others as a means to achieve your goals. In the teaching-learning process, collaborative work depends on mutual respect and our ability to fulfill the agreements we make. 

close

It is a value that gives individuals the ability, not only to recognize, but to carry out a previously agreed task or action. This responsibility enables the execution of this activity in pursuit of collective benefit. In other words, it is the ability to act with the personal and professional virtues required for personal growth, the correct exercise of a profession and the development of citizenship.

close

It involves recognizing that all people deserve equal consideration and respect. In the academic field it means giving credit to the work of others, not demanding preferential treatment, knowing the rules and following them. 

close

It is the harmony between beliefs, decisions and actions, and the continuous adherence to values and principles. You act with coherence and consistency when you always proceed in accordance with your own principles and values, but which have the common good as their main goal. Incoherence, on the other hand, is the basis of simulation and deception.

Our Structure
The program is structured into two dimensions: one aimed at education and prevention, and the other one at managing breaches of integrity. Two very important roles intervene in each dimension for the operation of the program:

Dimension of Education in Integrity

It is in charge of carrying out activities aimed at educating and raising awareness about academic integrity.

The role that supports these activities is the Ambassador of Academic Integrity.


Academic Integrity Ambassadors.

They are professors who serve as spokespersons and advisors for the program on campus. They carry out activities aimed to raise awareness about the importance of integrity and prevent breaches of academic integrity. They work together with the Campus Academic Integrity Committees (CIAC) to provide guidance to students who have committed breaches of academic integrity. We currently have 22 Academic Integrity Ambassadors. 

Dimension for Managing Breaches of Academic Integrity

It defines the operating standards of the program, addresses, and provides follow-up on breaches of academic integrity (FIA, by its acronym in Spanish) committed by students.

The faculty who carries out this activity is part of the Campus Academic Integrity Committee (CIAC, by its acronym in Spanish) and the National Academic Integrity Committee (CIAN, by its acronym in Spanish).


Campus Academic Integrity Committees (CIAC)

They are groups of teachers and collaborators responsible for analyzing and deliberating on cases of breaches of academic integrity. They are in charge of determining the consequences applicable to students who commit breaches of academic integrity, ensuring at all times that these are formative rather than punitive. We currently have 220 professors who are part of 32 Campus Academic Integrity Committees (CIAC).

National Academic Integrity Committee (CIAN)

It is the group of teachers and collaborators in charge of analyzing and resolving appeal cases presented by students who have committed breaches of academic integrity and who have been sanctioned with a temporary suspension or permanent withdrawal from the Institution.

Nuestros valores
close

Es el hábito de conducirse con la verdad y de ser coherente entre lo que se piensa, se dice y se hace. En el ámbito académico se refleja en el compromiso con tu proceso formativo respecto a lo que sabes y a lo que te falta por aprender.

close

Es la capacidad de actuar de acuerdo con los propios valores y convicciones, a pesar del miedo. La valentía puede desarrollarse en entornos donde se pone a prueba; el día a día de la vida académica presenta oportunidades para tomar decisiones, aprender de ellas y crecer.

close

Se trata de la capacidad de responder ante ti mismo y ante los demás por tus decisiones, acciones y omisiones en tu vida académica.

close

Implica reconocer tu propio valor y el de las personas y no tratar a los demás como medios para lograr tus objetivos. En el proceso de enseñanza aprendizaje, el trabajo colaborativo depende del respeto mutuo y de nuestra capacidad para cumplir los acuerdos que celebramos.

close

El compromiso es un valor que otorga a los individuos la capacidad, no solo de reconocer, sino de llevar a cabo una tarea o acción previamente acordada. Esta responsabilidad posibilita la ejecución de la actividad acordada en pos del beneficio colectivo. En otras palabras, es la capacidad de actuar con las virtudes personales y profesionales que requiere el crecimiento personal, el correcto ejercicio de una profesión y el desarrollo de la ciudadanía.

close

Implica reconocer que todas las personas merecen igual consideración y respeto. En el ámbito académico supone dar crédito al trabajo de otros, no exigir un trato preferencial, conocer las reglas y cumplirlas.

close

Es la armonía entre las creencias, las decisiones y las acciones, y el apego continuo a los valores y principios. Se actúa con congruencia cuando se procede siempre de acuerdo con los principios y valores propios, pero que tienen como fin el bien común. La incongruencia, por otro lado, es la base de la simulación y el engaño.

Breaches of Academic Integrity
Types of breaches of academic integrity
Below you can consult the definitions of the types of breaches of academic integrity, along with some examples.
close

Definition: Type of plagiarism that consists of presenting an academic work as “new”, without letting the reader know that it had already been submitted and assessed in the past.

Example: María completed the essay “The Mexican Revolution” for a Spanish subject and handed in the same work for a History subject, without telling her teachers about it.

close

Definition: It consists of presenting, partially or totally, someone else's work as if it were your own, without giving the corresponding credit to the author. It also involves copying and pasting verbatim large amounts of information from a source, even when the bibliographic reference is included.

Examples:

Rubén did not include citations or references in his final essay.

Clara copied 70% of her work from the internet, she did not express her own point of view in the essay.

close

Definition: It refers to the exchange of activities and/or academic homework online, which can be reused to obtain personal advantages in the academic field.

Example: Juan uploaded a Chemistry essay to buenastareas.com to be able to download another work for his Physics class. 

close

Definition: It involves commissioning or hiring the services of a third party to carry out the students' tasks, projects, or academic work. 

You contract-cheat when you deliver original academic work that someone else did on your behalf; regardless of if you make a monetary payment or not. 

This breach of academic integrity involves both the student who “buys” the academic work and the student who “sells” it.

Examples:

Romina delivered a model for her Structure class. However, she did not make the model; her mother and sister did. 

Jaime hired the services of “Tareas en linea” so one of its associates take his Integral Calculus exam. 

Ana hired Homework Dealer to write two chapters of her master's thesis. 

Karina charges 200 MXN to her classmates for doing homework in the subjects of Spanish, English and German. 

close

Definition: Inventing or creating data and adding it to academic work or research to manipulate the results in favor of the author. 

Inventing quotes or references that do not exist to academic work or research, or including quotes or references that do exist, but were not consulted to obtain a benefit as an author. 

Example: Pedro added bibliographical references to justify the ideas presented in his essay. However, he did not consult nor use these sources.  

close

Definition: Cheating to obtain or provide the answers to an exam and thereby guarantee an academic advantage, whether with the support of third parties, tools (accordions, sticky notes, photocopies, books, etc.) or technological devices (cell phones, tablets, smart watches, glasses with cameras, headphones or earphones, use of websites, apps, computer, etc.). 

Example: Claudia was caught using a cheat sheet in the Statistics exam, which was not allowed, and she knew about that before taking the exam.

close

Definition: Distribute the questions and/or answers of an exam using different media (WhatsApp, Facebook, photocopies, etc.). 

Example: Jacobo used WhatsApp to share pictures of the Microbiology exam with his friends. Later, his friends also shared them with more people.

close

Definition: Corrupting another person to obtain an academic advantage, such as offering money, goods, or services in exchange for a passing grade.

Example: Gonzalo offered the teacher a bottle of Whiskey in exchange for giving him a 70 final average. 

close

Definition: Alter or modify data, signatures or information, with the intention to obtain an academic advantage. 

Examples:

Gustavo altered his report card to raise his score in Mathematics. 

Gabriela modified her record of social service hours and added more hours to “state” that she had properly complied with this requirement. 

close

Definition: Misappropriation of information or an exam to obtain an academic advantage. 

Example: Ximena took the Lab keys without permission to finish her experiment and later sent an email to her teacher saying that she had finished her work during class time.

close

Definition: Agreement between parties to commit a breach of academic integrity. For example, when you agree to lend or borrow homework to copy it, or when you let a friend or peer be part of the team to receive a grade, even though your friend or peer did not work at all. 

Example: Fabricio is allegedly part of team #5, but he never showed up to any of the classes where his team worked on the project. The team agreed to include him because Fabricio is a friend.

close

Definition: It occurs when a student asks someone else to take an exam, attend a class, or carry out any other academic activity on their behalf to obtain academic advantage. This breach of academic integrity involves both the student who impersonates and the one who is impersonated.  

Example:

Rodolfo asked his friend Francisco to take the TOEFL examination on his behalf so he could fulfill this graduation requirement. 

Literature consulted: 

Bretag, T. (2016). (Editora). Handbook of Academic Integrity. doi: 10.1007/978-981-287-098-8

Other Forms of Academic Integrity Violations  

Definition: Any other action that violates the principles of academic integrity (respect, responsibility, trust, honesty, fairness) and has the purpose of obtaining an academic advantage through cheating, lying, or deceiving. 

Example: Arantza asked the career director to change the grade of an activity she had failed due to a breach of academic integrity.

Definición: La compra-venta implica el encargo o la contratación de los servicios de un tercero para que este realice las tareas, los proyectos o los trabajos académicos de los estudiantes.

Compra-venta viene del término contract cheating; supone la entrega de trabajos originales de los cuales el estudiante no es el autor y, a pesar de su traducción al español, no necesariamente implica pagos en dinero.

Este término involucra tanto a los estudiantes que “compran” trabajos como a los que los “venden”.

Ejemplos:

Romina entregó una maqueta para su clase de Estructuras. Sin embargo, ella no hizo la maqueta; la realizaron su mamá y su hermana.

Jaime contrató a “Tareas en línea” para que realizaran su examen de Cálculo Integral.

Ana contrató a Homework Dealer para que le hicieran dos capítulos de su tesis de maestría.

Karina cobra 200 pesos por realizar trabajos de las materias de Español, Inglés y Alemán a sus compañeros.
