IMPORTANT

PLEASE NOTE THAT PLAGIARISM (copying other writers' text without due citation or recognition) WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. Plagiarism is equal to cheating in exams as it means "stealing" solutions to problems, ideas or written text from other people and pretending they are your own. Students caught committing these forms of cheating will be subject to course failure and will be reported to the Dean of the University. Two instances of cheating or plagiarism will be cause for academic suspension.

For information on what plagiarism is and how to avoid it, please read the pages 41 and 41 in the book: TURABIAN, Kate L., A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations, Chicago Style for Students and Researchers, 7th Edition, The University of Chicago Press, 2007.
