Plagiarism

What is plagiarism?

The university defines plagiarism as: "the unacknowledged use of another person's ideas, words or work either verbatim or in substance without specific acknowledgement.";
Plagiarism is where you pass off the work of another person (and this includes pictures, figures, data, text, and ideas) as your own. Typically this is done to gain some advantage, e.g. a higher mark!

Plagiarism is wrong and any student caught plagiarising will be face disciplinary action
Penalties include expulsion from the University
