Since 2010, ADA University has been starting its academic year with the Honor Code Ceremony. The date of the Induction Ceremony traditionally set as September 15th, aslo marked as the Day of Knowledge in Azerbaijan.
The Honor Code contains a list of academic rules and procedures essential to guide the conduct of students, staff, faculty, and administrators alike. ADA University’s philosophy is centered on the idea that its highest values of academic integrity and honesty should be promoted not by the use of sanctions and threats, but rather by instilling an academic culture that embraces these values in their own right.
On September 15th all new students and faculty members walked took the Honor Code pledge. They swore to never lie, cheat, plagiarize or discriminate, nor help others to do so. As a sign of trust of ADA University they accept a Medal of Honor.
