Cheating and plagiarismYour responsibility: knowing the rules.

• Using AI in an assignment where it is not allowed.
• Using text or other media from books, websites, articles or other students' work without referencing or quoting correctly.
• Submitting someone else's work as your own.
• Bringing or using a mobile phone, unauthorised books, papers, notes, calculators or other aids during an exam.
• Having unauthorised notes in books you are allowed to use during an exam.
• Collaborating on assignments that are to be done individually.
• Sharing your individual work with others before the deadline.
• Putting your name on work you barely or never contributed to, putting someone else's name on something they didn't write, or submitting work in someone else's name.
• Fabricating data, statistics, interviews or similar material.

Invigilators and teachers are obliged to report suspected cheating. It can lead to a warning or to being suspended from your studies – from a few weeks up to a maximum of six months, depending on how serious the case is. Anyone who harasses other students or staff, or disrupts regular activities such as lectures, seminars, labs, placements and examinations, also risks a warning or suspension.
