any other form of cheating in examinations, labs, or term tests are subject
to serious academic penalty. The full definition of plagiarism and the
possible penalties associated with it can be found in the Undergraduate
Calendar. If your submitted assignment contains material you have copied from
another source (e.g., parts of another person’s assignment, or from a
textbook, or from the published literature, or from a website) you must give
proper credit to that source. Pandemic
Statement Should major disruptions to university activities occur as a result of a pandemic, the course content, marks breakdown, and other provisions of this document may be adjusted as the circumstances warrant. Return to Dr. F. Wang’s homepage |
