I have written an authenticity statement for fulfillment of my master's dissertation. I would be grateful if you could comment on it and make any necessary changes to make it sound better.
'I certify that all materials presented here are my own work unless otherwise clearly stated wherever adopted from other sources.'
Thank you very much for the time you put it.

I saved this authenticity statement from a PhD dissertation I read recently because I found it to be succinct and professional.
'I certify that all materials presented here are of my own creation, and that any work adopted from other sources is duly cited and referenced as such."
Hope this helps.
