Plagiarism
Plagiarism means using the ideas of someone else without giving them the
proper credit. Plagiarism shall be considered to have occurred if:
- a computer program substantially written by someone else (another
student, a previous student or the author of a publication) is presented as the
student's own work;
- paragraphs or sentences written by someone else are used in essays
without full reference to source;
- work of someone else is paraphrased and is not appropriately attributed
and referenced;
- laboratory results of someone else are used without appropriate
attribution.
Departments may provide specific advice about what constitutes
plagiarism in their disciplines.
