PLAGIARISM 

You are reminded that there exist regulations concerning plagiarism. Extracts from  these regulations are printed overleaf. Please sign below to say that you have read  and understand these extracts: 

Extracts from University Regulations on Cheating, Plagiarism and Collusion 

Section 2.3: “The following broad types of offence can be identified and are  provided as indicative examples …. 

(i) Cheating: including taking unauthorised material into an examination; consulting  unauthorised material outside the examination hall during the examination;  obtaining an unseen examination paper in advance of the examination; copying  from another examinee; using an unauthorised calculator during the  examination or storing unauthorised material in the memory of a programmable  calculator which is taken into the examination; copying coursework. 

(ii) Falsifying data in experimental results. 

(iii) Personation, where a substitute takes an examination or test on behalf of the  candidate. Both candidate and substitute may be guilty of an offence under  these Regulations. 

(iv) Bribery or attempted bribery of a person thought to have some influence on the  candidate’s assessment. 

(v) Collusion to present joint work as the work solely of one individual. 

(vi) Plagiarism, where the work or ideas of another are presented as the candidate’s  own. 

(vii) Other conduct calculated to secure an advantage on assessment. (viii) Assisting in any of the above. 

Some notes on what this means for students: 

1. Copying another student’s work is an offence, whether from a copy on paper or  from a computer file, and in whatever form the intellectual property being copied takes,  including text, mathematical notation, and computer programs. 

2. Taking extracts from published sources without attribution is an offence. To  quote ideas, sometimes using extracts, is generally to be encouraged. Quoting ideas  is achieved by stating an author’s argument and attributing it, perhaps by quoting,  immediately in the text, his or her name and year of publication, e.g. “e = mc2(Einstein  1905)”. A reference section at the end of your work should then list all such references  in alphabetical order of authors’ surnames. (There are variations on this referencing  system which your tutors may prefer you to use.) If you wish to quote a paragraph or  so from published work then indent the quotation on both left and right margins, using  an italic font where practicable, and introduce the quotation with an attribution.
