Academic integrity is important to Interreg
Euro-MED Academy
and our institutional partners. Your commitment to academic integrity shows
respect for your own work and the work of your peers.
You need to follow Interreg Euro-MED
Academy’s
Honor Code to uphold Interreg Euro-MED Academy 's standard of academic
integrity:
- Register for only one account. Your
account is linked to your email address. If you register on our site with
more than one email address, you are registering for more than one
account.
- Your answers to homework, quizzes,
and exams must be your own work (except for assignments that explicitly
permit collaboration).
- You may not share your solutions to
homework, quizzes, or exams with anyone else unless explicitly permitted by
the instructor. This includes anything written by you, as well as any
official solutions provided by the course staff.
- You may not engage in any other
activities that will dishonestly improve your results or dishonestly
improve or damage the results of others.
Plagiarism is when you copy or reproduce words, ideas, or any
other materials from another source without giving credit to the original
author. Plagiarism also includes the practice of employing or allowing another
person to alter or revise your work, and then submitting the work as your own.
Students may discuss assignments among themselves, or with an instructor or
tutor‚ but all assignment submissions must be original works done independently
by the student. Plagiarism is unacceptable in any academic environment, and is
a serious violation of the Interreg Euro-MED Academy Honor Code.
If some or all of your assignment is identified as plagiarism,
the following actions may be taken:
- You will be notified that your
assignment was found to be plagiarized, and a report of the plagiarism
case will be provided to Interreg Euro-MED Academy.
- You will fail the plagiarized
assignment. If your assignment previously received a passing score, the
score will be reverted to zero.
- If the failed assignment
sufficiently reduces your course score to a non-passing grade, the
certificate will be withheld or revoked.
- Removal from a course or learning
program.
We understand our learners come from many different academic
backgrounds and many are unfamiliar with our academic standard for plagiarism,
and a violation of our policies may have been a one time mistake. If your
assignment has been found to have been plagiarized, you will receive an email
notification detailing next steps.
Nothing in this policy shall restrict the applicability to you
of any institutional policies established by our content partners in connection
with their content (e.g., student codes of conduct); such policies shall
supplement this policy and to the extent there is a conflict between such
policies and this policy, as between you and our content partners, our content
partner’s policies shall govern.
You can report Honor Code violations by contacting us.
