AI is for research only — not for writing.
You’re welcome to use AI tools to research and prepare. You may not use AI to write your position paper. The words, analysis, and ideas you submit must be your own. Here’s exactly what that means and how we check.
- Ask AI to explain your country’s history, alliances, and positions
- Use AI to summarize background reading or find credible sources
- Brainstorm topic angles, questions, and possible solutions to explore
- Check your own writing for grammar and clarity once it’s written
- Generating any part of your position paper with AI
- Pasting AI-written paragraphs into your paper
- Asking AI to “write a position paper for [country] on [topic]”
- Submitting work that isn’t in your own words and ideas
How it works
When you submit, your paper is automatically run through an AI-writing originality check before your chair reviews it.
Your chair sees an originality score and a likely-human / uncertain / likely-AI verdict alongside your paper.
If a paper is flagged as likely AI-written, you and your advisor are notified, and the paper is reviewed by a human before any award decision.
Using AI to research makes you a sharper delegate. Using it to write your paper undermines the point of the exercise — and risks your award eligibility. When in doubt, do the thinking yourself.
