required to live up to them. In the Library and study rooms, library staff<br />

set and enforces standards for behavior, and you are required to obey<br />

them.<br />

Dress<br />

In accordance with the Honor Code, <strong>Zayed</strong> <strong>University</strong> seeks to maintain<br />

the highest standards of professionalism at all times and the appearance<br />

of students should be a reflection of those standards. <strong>Student</strong>s and<br />

their guests are expected to dress in a modest manner that respects<br />

Emirati customs and traditions. <strong>Student</strong>s and their guests are expected<br />

to attend the university in clothing that would be suitable for the UAE<br />

workplace environment.<br />

ADDRESSING VIOLATIONS OF THE CODE OF<br />

ACADEMIC CONDUCT<br />

<strong>University</strong> Discipline<br />

The student who engages in behavior prohibited by the Code of Academic<br />

Conduct may be subject to <strong>University</strong> discipline as well as discipline in<br />

the classroom or college in which the offense occurred.<br />

Penalty<br />

The Academic Bridge Program, <strong>University</strong> College and the Colleges deal<br />

with most first-time violations of the Code of Academic Conduct. They<br />

serve as the final authority in these cases and the penalty usually results<br />

in a warning letter, reduction in grade for the assignment, the grade of<br />

“F” for the course, or other penalties of similar severity.<br />

If the student has a second violation, or an unusually serious first<br />

violation, the student is also subject to discipline by the Office of <strong>Student</strong><br />

Life, the final authority at the <strong>University</strong> level. Resulting penalties may<br />

include suspension or expulsion.<br />
