ACADEMIC OFFENCE

1.0 ACADEMIC OFFENCE 1.1 Academic offence is a general term which includes actions which would have the

effect of unfairly promoting or enhancing one’s academic standing within the

entire community at ADMAL Aviation College.

2.0 TYPES OF ACADEMIC OFFENCE 2.1 Plagiarism

Plagiarism consists of, but is not limited to, copying portions of the writing of

others with only minor changes in wording, with (a) inadequate footnotes,

quotes, or other reference forms of citation or (b) only a list of references.

Paraphrasing without appropriate citation is also plagiarism.

With group work, where individual members submit parts of the total

assignment, each member of a group must take responsibility for checking

the legitimacy of the work submitted in his name. If even one part of work

contains plagiarized materials, penalties will normally be imposed on all

group members, equally.

2.2 Collusion

Collusion is when a student or students collaborate with another student or

students as an individual or group with the intention of cheating to gain a mark or

grade to which they are not entitled. Students who allow another to copy their

work are also committing collusion and both copier and the provider of the work

are liable to be penalized.

2.3 Fraud and Forgery

The commission of fraud and forgery include but not limited to falsification of

College academic records, including attendance records, regarding oneself or

others, forging the signature of academic officers on any official University

forms, altering or changing an examination results or like document so as to

mislead other or causing false information to be presented at an academic

proceeding.

2.4 Abuse of Resources

Infringing upon the right of other students to fair and equal access to any College

Library materials and comparable or related academic resources. This may

include, but not limited to, theft, mutilation, unreasonably delayed
