Plagiarism
What is plagiarism?
Plagiarism is the copying of ideas, images or words directly or indirectly from another source without fully acknowledging that source, thereby taking credit for the specified material. It is treated as academic misconduct in Higher Education and disciplinary procedures are in place to deal with anyone engaging in plagiarism. Students are also expected to take reasonable precautions to guard against unauthorised access by others to their work.
