KEEP A COPY
Please be sure to make a copy of your work before you submit it through the General Office/coordinator.
On rare occasions an assignment gets lost in the system. In such a case you must be able to provide
another copy.

PLAGIARISM
Plagiarism is the presentation by a student of an assignment which has in fact been copied in whole or in
part from another student’s work, or from any other source (e.g. published book, website or periodicals),
without proper acknowledgment in the text. It is expected that when a student turns in work for
assessment that it is the independent work of that student, it is written by that student, and they have
written it in their own words. If you copy an article and make some minor changes to pass it off as your
own writing, you are plagiarising deliberately. If you carelessly forget to include quotation marks or a
reference to show whose words or ideas you are using, you are plagiarising accidentally. Whether
deliberate or accidental, plagiarism is a serious offence in scholarship.

COLLUSION
Collusion is the presentation by a student of an assignment as his or her own which is in fact the result in
whole or in part of an unauthorised collaboration with another person or persons.

CONSEQUENCES OF PLAGIARISM AND COLLUSION

In any case where a student has been involved in plagiarism or collusion, this will be reported to the Dean.
It may be reported to Student Administration and recorded on the student’s academic file.
In any case where a student has been involved in plagiarism or collusion in an assessable task the marks
awarded for that task will be zero, and no substitution of an alternative task will normally be permitted.
In any case in which a student has been involved in plagiarism or collusion the Dean may refer it to the Student
Discipline Committee Where an allegation is substantiated, penalties may include exclusion from the University or a
substantial fine.
