Academic Honesty: |
It is your responsibility to ensure that your work conforms to the requirements for academic honesty. The details below are a brief reminder of what constitutes academic dishonesty/cheating. |
Plagiarism
You may lose marks if you do not cite sources accurately. If you fail to reference sources
properly, the effect is to misrepresent the amount of work done. Passing someone else’s work
off as your own is plagiarism.
Plagiarism (i.e. presenting the thoughts or writings of others as your original work, without
properly identifying and referencing the source), is unacceptable behaviour and will be
regarded as a serious breach of Regulations by the University. This includes copying part or all
of a dissertation, copying from another student’s work, or the un-attributed quotation of even
a single sentence written by another author.
Collusion
If two or more students work together, to produce the same piece of work, and then attempt
to present this as entirely their own work, or if one student permits another to copy his/her
work, it will be considered that an offence has been committed by all concerned.
Note
A cover page is required with the word count displayed. 10% over or under this limit is
acceptable. Failure to keep within 10% of the designated word count will result in a penalty of
a reduction of one grade. Any appendices you may attach are not included in the word count.
You must include a statement on the front cover of your work that gives the word count. You
must comply with staff requests to submit to Turnitin and provide a receipt where asked to
do so.
