abide by these codes.

For this course, the Honor Code is that there will be no plagiarizing on written work and no cheating on
examinations. Proper citation must be given to authors whose works were used in the process of developing
instructional materials and learning for this course. If a student is caught cheating on an exam, he/ she will be
given a zero mark for that particular exam. If a student is caught cheating for the second time, he/ she will be
referred to the Prefect of Student Affairs, the guidance Office and will be given a failing mark for the course.

Consultation Schedule
Consultation schedules with the professors are posted outside the ChE-Chm Faculty room and in the school
web-page (http://che-chm.mapua.edu.ph). It is recommended that the student first set an appointment to
confirm the instructors availability.
