SIM University forbides any ways to cheat and palagiarism!
Cheating
Cheating or attempting to cheat or attempt to cheat at or in respect of
any examination, test, assignment or any other means of assessment
conducted by or on behalf of the Institute. Cheating, in this context,
includes plagiarism.
Plagiarism / Collusion
Plagiarism is theft of intellectual property. Students are reminded that
plagiarism is a serious offence subject to the Institute’s disciplinary
procedures.
Plagiarism can mean any of the following:
• direct copying of phrases and/or passages without a reference
and/or quotation marks;
• paraphrasing another writer’s work in your written work without
citing the reference;
• making a direct reference to an author you have not read although
you may have read about him. The correct way is to reference the
secondary source you have actually read rather than referencing the
original which you have not read;
• copying the work of another student, in part or in whole;
• handing in written work that has already been submitted for
assessment in another course.
Please note that it is also a disciplinary offence for students to allow
their work to be plagiarised by another student
