UGC AI Guidelines for PhD Theses: What Students Should Know Before Using AI

Recent reports on UGC’s AI-related PhD norms have raised an important question for students: is a plagiarism or AI score enough to prove research integrity? While AI may support grammar, language polishing or readability, it must not become a hidden co-author. Students should disclose AI assistance, avoid humaniser tools, preserve draft history and be ready to defend their research question, method, data and interpretation.

How to write a literature review and prepare the bibliography

When you prepare to conduct and then write a literature review, always remember that you need to follow a systematic approach, starting with defining clear objectives and inclusion criteria. Most importantly, you should meticulously record the details of each study that you select, refer to, and include in the review so that you can list all the studies accurately in your reference list or bibliography. If you don’t already use reference-management software, invest effort in finding one that suits your purpose and budget, and use it to ensure a hassle-free writing experience.
