Generic Information
Any type of plagiarism is not allowed.
Plagiarism: Academic honesty is crucial to a student’s credibility and self-esteem, and

ultimately reflects the values and morals of the Institute as whole. A student may
work together with one or a group of students discussing assignment content,
identifying relevant references, and debating issues relevant to the subject. Plagiarism
occurs when the work of another person, or persons, is used and presented as one’s
own.
