Academic dishonesty consists of misrepresentation of deception or by other fraudulent means and can result in serious consequences, e.g. the grade of zero on all assignments, loss of credit with a notation on the transcript (notation reads: "Grade of F is assigned for academic dishonesty"), and/or suspension or expulsion from the university.
It is your responsibility to understand what constitutes academic dishonesty. For information on the various kinds of academic dishonesty please refer to the Academic Integrity Policy, specifially Appendix 3. The following illustrates only three forms of academic dishonesty:
- Submission of work that is fully or partly copied from someone else, or making your work available for copying to others.
- Submission of work that has been fully or partly obtained from other sources like the Internet.
- Copying or using unauthorized aids in tests and examinations.
All submitted assignments are always checked for similarities.
