Anti-corruption measures

At the end of last year, our university hosted the All-Ukrainian Creative Works Competition for the second time, dedicated to fostering a culture of integrity and combating corruption. This project, organized by the Authorized Officer for the Prevention and Detection of Corruption at Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute in collaboration with the Faculty of Sociology and Law, ran from October 10 to December 9, 2025, and was open to students from higher education institutions across Ukraine.

Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute has introduced an important tool that promotes transparency at the university: a corruption risk checklist.

🇺🇦 Our country has introduced unprecedented measures to combat corruption, which most post-Soviet countries have not yet been able to implement.

The adoption of the Regulations on the system for preventing plagiarism, fabrication, and falsification at the National Technical University of Ukraine “Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute” is an extremely important and timely step towards forming a genuine culture of academic integrity within the university.

Building integrity in the higher education system is one of the priorities of Ukraine's current education policy.

In today's environment, higher education requires not only compliance with legal requirements, but also a high level of internal responsibility from each employee. That is why our KPI has begun to implement the “compliance + values” approach, which is recommended by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD, 2020) as one of the most effective ways to strengthen integrity in public sector organizations.

KPI has officially joined the All-Ukrainian Anti-Corruption Quest organized by the Association of Legal Clinics of Ukraine.

On the occasion of the Anti-Corruption Day, Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute held a university competition of creative works aimed at popularizing the idea of integrity, developing creative thinking, cognitive interest and moral and ethical outlook of students.

In the youth creative competition “Together Against Corruption! Your Vision Matters”, held by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine on the occasion of the International Anti-Corruption Day, second-year students of the Faculty of Sociology and Law of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute Diana Shybynska, Kristina Kormyshkina, Ruslana Kuzichkina and Sofia Kuzub won second place.
