RULES – cheating and plagiarism

Students follow an academic course of study and need to learn to work independently, in groups, to collect information carefully and to solve problems. Students need to prepare for exam conscientiously.

Cheating in examinations and while preparing assignments is prohibitted and anyone who cheats is breaking university rules and will face consequences.
