All students must adhere to the conduct rules contained in the University Regulations, the Code of Ethical Conduct (adopted with Rector’s decree no. 28 of 15/02/2021), the Code of Conduct for the protection of the dignity of female and male workers and students at Politecnico di Torino and the Student Conduct Guidelines.
The Disciplinary Board has been established in accordance with the Student Regulations of Politecnico Torino. Its objective is to examine and sanction the behavior of students who infringe the law, the University Statute and Regulations and the rules of civic coexistence; furthermore, the Board is competent for examining the cases of students who are found guilty to have damaged university property or third party assets, even if temporarily present in the university. Students are required to engage in behaviors that are respectful of the personal integrity and dignity of others, as well as of the decorum of the premises where teaching and research are held. Students are also required to refrain from any conduct that may be detrimental to the image and respectability of the University as an Institution, even outside university premises. Students must avoid “academic misconduct”, intended as any behavior that undermines academic integrity and a positive environment or any action that goes against personal development and educational growth. When these facts are recognized as related to students and therefore damage the University's respectability and honor, the Disciplinary Board examines the cases of violations of the rules and decides whether to impose a sanction on the students involved and up to what extent.
