    The current paper investigates the factors contributing to academic dishonesty among students at the National Technical University of Ukraine, highlighting the effects of formalistic learning approaches. Through a review of resent research and a targeted survey analysis, this study examines the impact of pedagogical strategies and the broader educational environment on student integrity. Key findings indicate that external pressures such as competitive academic climates, unclear pedagogical objectives, and the perceived (by students) irrelevance of course content significantly influence academic dishonesty. Theoretical insights from McGregor's Theory A and Theory B are applied to differentiate between the authoritarian and humanistic educational frameworks, demonstrating that environments which emphasise punitive measures and controls (Theory A) tend to exacerbate dishonest behaviours, whereas those that support personalised learning experiences (Theory B) help mitigate these tendencies. The survey reveals a disconnect between students' academic responsibilities and their personal and professional aspirations, with many resorting to dishonest practices when faced with unmanageable academic loads or misaligned curriculum goals. The manuscript proposes a paradigm shift in educational strategies to develop a culture of integrity. Recommendations include restructuring curricular designs to enhance relevance and engagement, improving communication of academic expectations, and implementing supportive measures that encourage ethical academic conduct. By addressing both the symptomatic and root causes of academic dishonesty, this study advocates for a more holistic approach to fostering integrity within the educational system.
