Plagiarism & Collusion
(extracted from Student Handbook)
3.7.2 Plagiarism/Collusion
Plagiarism is theft of intellectual property. It is a form of lying, stealing and mistreating others. Students are reminded that plagiarism is a serious offence subject to the Institute’s disciplinary procedures.
Plagiarism can mean any one of the followings:
· direct copying of phrases and/or passages without a reference and/or quotation marks;
· paraphrasing another writer’s work in your written work without citing the reference;
· making a direct reference to an author you have not read although you may have read about him. The correct way is to reference the secondary source you have actually read rather than referencing the original which you have not read;
· copying the work of another student, in part or in whole;
· handing in assignment that has already been submitted for assessment in the same or any other course.
Please note that it is also a disciplinary offence for students to allow their work to be plagiarised by another student.
A student found guilty of any of the above offences will render the student liable for disciplinary actions which may result in the voiding and adjustments to the continuous assessment grade
and may result in expulsion from the Institute.
