Department Policy on Plagiarism

Plagiarism, defined broadly, is the presentation of another's words and/or ideas as one's own without attributing the proper source. It is grounds not only for failure of a given piece of work, which could result in failure for the entire course, it could also result in being reported to the administrative body responsible for student conduct violations and being subject to disciplinary action, which includes expulsion, suspension, and/or probation.

The faculty of the Department of Political Science regard any form of cheating including plagiarism as a serious matter of academic dishonesty which threatens the integrity of the assessment process and award of grades and/or the degree, to the detriment of all other students and graduates of the University.

The Department has a unified plagiarism policy adopted on October 22, 2004, which is posted as the full plagiarism policy. A hard copy can also be obtained from the department office .
