PLAGIARISMIt is your responsibility to read and ensure you have understood the rules on academic misconduct, including plagiarism. Plagiarism is defined as the fraudulent representation of another's work as one's own or the failure to acknowledge adequately the sources used. This applies whatever the source of the material (for example, a published source, the web, or the work of another student), whether the material is copied word for word or paraphrased, and whatever the extent of the material used (including ideas, arguments, words, diagrams, images or data). Wilful and deliberate disregard for good academic practice in respect of attribution of material will be construed as plagiarism. Plagiarism is a form of academic misconduct and will be penalised accordingly. Students should refer to the Examinations website and their Programme Handbook for guidance.

DECLARATIONBy signing this document I certify that this is my own work or the unaided and original work of a project group and that use of material from other sources has been properly and fully acknowledged in the text. I have read the University’s definition of plagiarism and the department’s advice on good academic practice and understand that the consequence of committing plagiarism, if proven and in the absence of mitigating circumstances may include failure in the Year or Part or removal from the membership of the University. I also certify that neither this piece of work, nor any part of it, has been submitted in connection with another assessment.
