The Student Handbook states: “The University views plagiarism and copying of copyright materials, without the
license of the copyright owner, as a serious disciplinary offence.” Plagiarism is intellectual theft and is committed
when you use other people’s ideas and pass them off as your own work by failing to indicate clearly the source of
these ideas. Plagiarism includes use of material that is the work of another student or a lecturer, the writing of a
published author, and the wide range of material available on the Internet where there may or may not be an
acknowledged author. Plagiarism is regarded as a serious form of cheating. This may result in receiving no marks for
your assignment and the assignment being withheld. The most serious cases may result in suspension or
expulsion from the University. Students can use and refine the work of others but these sources must be
acknowledged accurately. The use of all material from these sources must be cited through an approved referencing
system. A general bibliography at the end of your essay is not sufficient. The Student Handbook provides guidance
notes aim to help students of the University comply with the Institution’s policy on plagiarism in coursework,
bibliographic referencing and photocopying of copyright materials (page 62-68).
