Corruption is one of the global problems of modern society, and combating it requires the active participation of all spheres of activity, including education. An important role in this is played by the formation of academic integrity among students before the exam period.

Every year, the college holds a “Clean Session” campaign aimed at promoting the principles of honesty, responsibility, and fairness. The main goal of the campaign is to reinforce students’ understanding that knowledge gained independently is a reliable foundation for their future professional activities.

Prior to the session, explanatory work is carried out with students. The meetings discuss the consequences of dishonest behavior, both for the student as an individual and for society as a whole.

As part of the anti-corruption measures, the following events are held:

–  discussions on “Corruption: good or bad” and “Academic integrity: personal choice or social responsibility”; “Effective methods of combating corruption: the view of young people,” “Why is corruption an obstacle to success?”

– Lectures on “Corruption: causes, consequences, and ways to fight it,” “Academic integrity as the foundation for a successful future,” and “Ethics and the law: how to stick to the principles of honesty in everyday life.”

– Curatorial hours: “I am against corruption,” “Honesty and responsibility: the path to success,” “A world without corruption: is it possible?”, “Your position against corruption: start with yourself.”

The topics raised help to strengthen the foundations of academic ethics. Particular attention is paid to issues such as preventing cheating, preventing bribery, and honesty in completing tests and assignments.
