Policy on plagiarism and cheating

Cheating, which include plagiarism, is a form of misconduct that undermines academic integrity. As such YU condemns all form of cheating and imposes stiff penalties on offenders in order to build a no-cheating environment.

Cheating is a serious educational offence. Cheating occurs when a student:

· Uses or attempts to use unauthorized aids, assistance, materials or methods.

· Copies another student’s work and submit it as his/her own work.

· Allows another student to copy his/her work.

· Collaborates excessively with other students and decompiles sample solutions.

· Using mobile phone during exam.

If it is determined that a student has cheated, in any course at any time during their enrolment at YU, the University will proceed various types of disciplinary action depending on the circumstances like giving zero grade for the quiz in question, failing grade for the course, even suspension from the semester or from the university. (ref: Cheating and Plagiarism Policy: version 1, approved on 5.12.2009).
