Plagiarism

Introduction

Plagiarism is an academic 'crime' which can result in you being disqualified for coursework or exams, and can potentially lead to you being dropped from a course - both here at college, and in future institutions, such as University - which may mean being excluded altogether if that is your only course! Outside of academic circles, it can lead to loss of reputation or loss of your job. So it's pretty serious stuff which you need to learn to avoid.
