Cheating and Plagiarism

Students are responsible for familiarising themselves with the University
Code of Student Conduct, as on enrollment with the University the student
has placed themselves under the policies and regulations of the University
and all of its duly constituted bodies. Disciplinary authority is exercised
through the Student Conduct Committee. The Committee has procedures in
place for hearing allegations of misconduct. Copies of the student conduct
code are available at the Student Services Office.

Academic dishonesty is never condoned by the University. This includes
cheating and plagiarism, which violate the Student Conduct Code and
could result in expulsion or failing the course.

Cheating includes but is not limited to obtaining or giving unauthorized help
during an examination, getting unauthorized information about the contents
of an examination before it is administered, using unauthorised sources
of information during an examination, altering or falsifying the record of
any grades, altering or supplying answers after an examination has been
handed in, falsifying any official University record, and misrepresenting the
facts to get exemptions from or extensions to course requirements.

Plagiarism includes but is not limited to submitting any paper or other
document, to satisfy an academic requirement, which has been copied
either in whole or in part from someone else’s work without identifying
that person; failing to identify as a quotation a documented idea that has
not been thoroughly assimilated into the student’s language and style, or
paraphrasing a passage so closely that the reader could be misled as to
the source; submitting the same written or oral material in different courses
