Students should also note that essays, assignments and other work are generally understood to be the student's own work and where such work is identical with, or similar to, another student's work, an assumption of cheating may arise. Where students wish to undertake work in conjunction with other students, it is suggested that the matter be discussed with the lecturer concerned. In addition, the following School of Computer Science and Software Engineering policy applies. The assignments set in this subject are designed primarily as learning exercises, but they also contribute to your final grade. Copying of another student's assignment solutions is unacceptable.
All students have a responsibility to ensure that their assignment solutions are their own work.
You must ensure that others do not obtain access to your solutions for the purpose of copying a part of them. Where such plagiarism is detected, both of the assignments involved will receive no marks. In significant cases of plagiarism, action may be taken against the offenders under the University's disciplinary regulations.
