Plagiarism: Why Do We Need to Avoid It? How?

Plagiarism is a serious problem in academic institutions. Many undergraduate students are not aware of what constitutes plagiarism and its consequences. This workshop will help students develop a better understanding of factors associated with academic dishonesty, and the repercussions of committing plagiarism. The differences between cheating and plagiarism, and how to use Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools ethically in coursework/ assignments to avoid plagiarism will also be discussed in this workshop.

The mission of the Office of Undergraduate Research and Creative Works (OURCW) is to support students and faculty in performing inquiry-driven, creative research projects and participating in global scholarly discussions about nationally and internationally important topics.

This event is part of the OURCW seminar series.
