The principles that underlie guidelines for Institute roles and relationships are open communication and respect.
Graduate students and the other members of the MIT community share responsibility for adhering to these principles, and for embracing MIT’s values. Graduate students are expected to follow policies on academic integrity and conflict of interest.
Additionally, all members of the Institute community should be aware that MIT has a comprehensive policy regarding consensual sexual or romantic relationships in the workplace or academic environment.
