Academic Integrity Reminder This course adheres to the university’s Academic Integrity Policy. Using AI to bypass learning, plagiarize, or misrepresent your own work undermines the educational process and may result in disciplinary action. Guiding Principle Use AI as a tool for thought—not a substitute for it. If you are ever uncertain about what constitutes acceptable use, please ask. Open conversation is encouraged. Exception to MAT Policies All requests for exceptions to ECE MAT program policies are to be submitted in writing to the ECE Program Chair at Leslie.katch@nl.edu. NCE Academic Policy Committee The purpose of the NCE Academic Policy Committee is to consider student petitions regarding, but not limited to, the following NLU/NCE policies:

• Admission to graduate study • Retention in graduate study • Extension of time limitation to complete degree • Core course waivers • Acceptance of more than nine hours prior to admission • Transfer of credit beyond six hours • Acceptance of extension or workshop credit beyond the maximum • Grade appeals

The Committee is composed of representatives of the NCE faculty. Currently, it meets on the fourth Wednesday of each month during the academic year. The Committee also meets during the summer quarter to address students’ requests for exceptions to policies. Online petitions must be received by the Chair of the Committee at least two weeks in advance of the meeting so that there is time to distribute materials to members of the Committee. Students must consult with their assigned academic advisor in order to begin the appeal process. Academic advisors must approve the petition before it is submitted to the NCE Academic Policies Committee. All
