In an increasingly digital academic environment, the unauthorised sharing of academic files, such as lecture materials, assignments, or copyrighted content, poses significant challenges for universities, staff, and students. Such practices infringe upon intellectual property rights and undermine academic integrity and the efforts of educators.

The documents below aim to provide clear guidance for students and staff regarding the responsible handling of academic content, outline the University’s position on unauthorised academic file sharing, and set out a standardised protocol for addressing instances where academic content is shared without permission on third-party platforms.

Academic Integrity is a fundamental principle that underpins all academic activity. Students should value honesty in their scholarship.  Working independently, expressing original ideas, and appropriately acknowledging the ideas of others are important skills that will benefit students beyond their time in UCD.  

Breaches of academic integrity are known as academic misconduct which may involve students submitting work that is not their own, wholly or partly. Examples of academic misconduct include plagiarism, unauthorised use of generative artificial intelligence, contract cheating, collusion, cheating during examinations. For all categories and definitions of Academic Misconduct see section 2 of the Student Code of Conduct.

Students are expected to:

Referral forms / templates 

School Academic Integrity Committees may wish to establish referral forms or templates for reports to collect necessary information on suspected incidents of plagiarism from Module Coordinators. Establishing such a form / template will help to ensure that the Committee receives information in a clear and consistent manner. See an example of a form used by the College of Business:

Academic Penalties

School Committees will continue to apply academic penalties in accordance with section 5 of the Student Academic Misconduct Procedure, using the UCD Plagiarism Tarriff for guidance, where applicable. Please note UCD Plagiarism Tarriff is not suitable for some categories of academic misconduct, e.g. collusion, contract cheating or unauthorised use of generative academic intelligence.

Student Misconduct Incident Report Form 

Where School Academic Integrity Committees decide to refer suspected cases of plagiarism to be dealt with under the Student Discipline Procedure, the Student Misconduct Incident Report should be used. 

Resources

Information available to students regarding academic integrity and avoiding plagiarism is available from:

Generative Artificial Intelligence and Academic Misconduct 

Module Coordinators wishing to permit the use Artificial Intelligence (AI) must record this in relevant module descriptors. Accordingly, submission of AI-generated content as part of an assessment, without explicit permission and attribution will be treated as academic misconduct and may be reported to and addressed by school committees, or referred under the Student Discipline Procedure where appropriate.

1. HOW ARE STUDENTS INFORMED ABOUT PLAGIARISM AND THE IMPORTANCE OF ACADEMIC INTEGRITY?
Heads of School are responsible for ensuring that appropriate and timely arrangements are in place to promote academic integrity and advise students of plagiarism (Academic Integrity Policy, section 3.4). Schools may wish to avail of the resources that are available from the Library with regard to academic integrity and avoiding plagiarism: (opens in a new window)https://libguides.ucd.ie/academicintegrity 

2. WHAT IS THE UNIVERSITY’S PROCESS FOE DEALING WITH SUSPECTED CASES OF PLAGIARISM?
The UCD Student Academic Misconduct Procedure sets out the University’s process for dealing with suspected cases of plagiarism. 

3. WHAT IS THE SCHOOL PLAGIARISM PROTOCOL?
The School Plagiarism Protocol provides additional information on how the School will apply UCD Student Academic Misconduct Procedure. It may include the following information: School name, name of the School Academic Integrity Adviser (if appointed), Chair and member(s) of the School Academic Integrity Committee; information about the referencing / citation system(s) in use in the School and any other information that clarifies the procedural steps that will be taken for dealing with suspected cases of plagiarism. The Head of School is responsible for the development and periodic review of the School Academic Misconduct Protocol (section 3.4).

4. WHAT IS THE UCD PLAGIARISM TARIFF?
The UCD Plagiarism Tariff is adapted from the (opens in a new window)AMBeR Tariff model. Its purpose is to provide guidance to those responsible for decision-making and application of penalties in relation to suspect cases of plagiarism.

While the tariff is primarily designed to be used for deciding penalties in cases of plagiarism identified in assessments that are graded, an additional tariff table has been included in the proposed UCD tariff to take account of a) research degree theses, b) PhD Stage Transfer Assessments, or c) final PhD dissertation submission or d) pass/fail assessments, because they do not receive a graded outcome. The UCD Plagiarism Tariff is available as an appendix to the UCD Student Academic Misconduct Procedure

5. WHAT IS THE SCHOOL ACADEMIC INTEGRITY COMMITTEE? 
School Academic Integrity Committees are established by Heads of School and are responsible for reviewing allegations of academic misconduct submitted by Module Coordinators. The committee will review all information submitted, meet with students and make determinations as to whether academic misconduct has taken place. Where academic misconduct has taken place the committee may decide to impose a penalty against the student. In certain circumstances the committee may decide to refer a case to be dealt with under the Student Discipline Procedure without decision.   

6. HOW MANY MEMBERS CAN SIT ON SCHOOL ACADEMIC INTEGRITY COMMITTEES?
The UCD Student Academic Misconduct Procedure states that School Academic Integrity Committees will comprise of three voting members, a chair and a maximum of two additional academic staff. Schools may choose to have an additional member of staff present to take notes at meetings. If Schools do not wish to create a three-person standing committee, they may choose to form a larger panel of staff from which a three-person committees can be convened.

7. CAN THE CHAIR OF THE SCHOOL ACADEMIC INTEGRITY COMMITTEE ACT AS THE SCHOOL ACADEMIC INTEGRITY ADVISER?
Yes, the Chair of the School Academic Integrity Committee can also be the School Academic Integrity Adviser. The Student Academic Misconduct Procedure does not prevent this. The role of School Plagiarism Adviser is optional, and each School decides whether there is benefit in having such a role. If the School decides to have such a role, the Head of School will need to nominate the School Academic Integrity Adviser (section 3.1).

8. ARE STUDENTS REQUIRED TO ATTEND THE SCHOOL ACADEMIC INTEGRITY COMMITTEE MEETING?
Students should be encouraged to attend the meeting with the School Academic Integrity Committee as it provides the opportunity for members to hear from the student in relation to the alleged academic misconduct and for the committee to impress upon students the importance of academic integrity.

9. WHAT IF THE STUDENT DOESN’T RESPOND OR REQUESTS THAT THE TIME OF THE MEETING BE CHANGED?
Students should make every effort to attend meetings scheduled by the School Academic Integrity Committee. If they request a change of appointment because they have a class, for example, reasonable efforts should be made to reschedule. However, if a student fails to engage with the committee the meeting may proceed in the student’s absence (section 5.3.2).

10. CAN THE SCHOOL APPLY TIMELINES TO ENSURE ALLEGATIONS CAN BE DEALT WITH EFFICIENTLY?
Yes, the school can establish timelines for the effective management of suspected cases of academic misconduct, e.g., set a timeline for students to respond to school communications. Such timelines are usually established in ‘working days’ and where applied should be reflected in the School Academic Misconduct protocols.

11. CAN STUDENTS BE ACCOMPANIED TO THE MEETING WITH THE SCHOOL ACADEMIC INTEGRITY COMMITTEE?
Yes, students may be accompanied to the meetings with the School Academic Integrity Committee by a support person such as their Student Adviser or Student’s Union sabbatical officer. Where students are accompanied, they should be prepared to speak for themselves at meetings. The role of the accompanying person is to provide support.

12. WHAT IF THE STUDENT PRESENTS MITIGATING FACTORS?
Following the School Academic Integrity Committee’s decision that academic misconduct has occurred they may consider any mitigating factors presented, that may have impacted on the student’s actions. The committee may decide to adjust the penalty to appropriately, as the UCD Plagiarism Tariff is not designed to deal with mitigating factors. There is a separate, formal University procedure for the consideration of extenuating circumstances. If a student raises matters that may fall under the scope of the Extenuating Circumstances Policy the student should be encouraged to consider making an application. Late applications may be considered under exceptional circumstances (7.3.3).

13. WHAT SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE OUTCOME LETTER FROM THE SCHOOL ACADEMIC INTEGRITY COMMITTEE’S TO THE STUDENT?
The School Academic Integrity Committee should notify the student of their decision via the student’s UCD email address. Where the committee finds that academic misconduct has occurred, the communication should refer to the mechanism for appeal under specified grounds, see the Student Appeal Procedure. The communication should also advise that the incident will be recorded on the Plagiarism Record System. Please note, this does not apply in cases where a committee has determined that a case should be referred to the Student Discipline Procedure. Please see question and response below.

14. HOW ARE SUSPECTED CASES OF ACADEMIC MISCONDUCT REFERRED TO THE STUDENT DISCIPLINE PROCEDURE? 
For cases where the School Academic Integrity Committee determines that a case should be referred to the Student Discipline Procedure, the referral will be made without decision and the student should be advised that they will be contacted directly by Student Engagement, Conduct, Complaints and Appeals in due course. As cases that are referred are done so without decision the student may not submit an appeal. Students may avail of the appeal process once decisions have been made under the Student Discipline Procedure. To refer a case, please complete an incident report form and any submit with any related material to student.conduct@ucd.ie Forms are available in the ‘information for Staff’ section of the Student Conduct website.

15. WHAT ARE THE AVAILABLE OUTCOMES IF A STUDENT IS FOUND OF ACADEMIC MISCONDUCT IN A RESIT ASSESSMENT?
Under the Academic Regulations students are permitted one opportunity to resit a failed assessment, which is graded as pass/fail. If a student plagiarises in a resit attempt the School Plagiarism Committee should consider all of the circumstances of the case to determine whether a fail should be applied to the assessment, as capping or grade reduction is not possible in the context of pass/fail grading.

16. WHAT HAPPENS IF THE SUSPECTED ACADEMIC MISCONDUCT HAS NOT BEEN DEALT WITH IN TIME FOR THE GRADE APPROVAL PROCESS (GAP)?
Most cases will have been dealt with in advance of GAP, where an assessment is under review and the matter has not been resolved in advance of the GAP, an NM may be applied to the relevant component assessment. Where a grade is subsequently changed following a decision by a School Academic Integrity Committee or taken under the Student Discipline Procedure, the Module Coordinator will be required to submit an exceptional change of grade request for approval by Academic Council Committee on Examinations (ACCE). 

17. WHAT IS THE UNIVERSITY’S PLAGIARISM RECORD SYSTEM?
A centralised University Plagiarism Record System was introduced in September 2020. It is developed in InfoHub and includes information relating to academic misconduct incidents approved by School Academic Misconduct Committees or referred without decision to the UCD Student Discipline Procedure.

The system consists of two services:

  • Reporting and Recording of Plagiarism Incidents tool – allows members of School Academic Integrity Committees to check whether a plagiarism incident was previously recorded for a particular student and/or to record details of plagiarism incidents that have been referred to Committees. Details will only be recorded if a decision is made that plagiarism has occurred.
  • Plagiarism Incidents Reporting tool – allows users to generate plagiarism incident reports. 


18. WHO CAN BE GRANTED ACCESS TO THE PLAGIARISM RECORD SYSTEM?
Access to the system is limited to faculty and staff with responsibility for applying the policy, administering the student discipline procedure and maintaining the system.

Two individuals per School (nominated by the Heads of Schools) can be granted access to the system and this normally includes: the Chair of School Academic Integrity Committee, and a member of School staff (typically a senior Administrator such a School Manager) responsible for implementing the policy i.e., identifying previous incidents of plagiarism by students and entering outcomes by a School Academic Integrity Committee.

The Student Engagement, Conduct, Complaints and Appeals team (SECCA) is responsible for maintaining the system and coordinating the user access. You can contact the team at (opens in a new window)student.conduct@ucd.ie 

19. HOW CAN I ACCESS AND NAVIGATE THE PLAGIARISM RECORD SYSTEM?
Access to the Plagiarism Record System can be granted by a member of SECCA team upon receipt of a request from your Head of School. Such requests should be submitted to student.conduct@ucd.ie You will be notified via email when you get access to the system and you will also receive a copy of the Student Academic Misconduct Record System Staff Guide (for School Nominees) which outlines step by step how to access and navigate the system.

20. WHAT INFORMATION IS RECORDED ON THE PLAGIARISM RECORD SYSTEM?
Where a School Academic Integrity Committee finds that plagiarism has occurred, the details of cases will be recorded on the system by a nominated member of staff in School. The system will prompt the user to enter the following information: student name and ID number, module code, module title, plagiarism category, assessment type and the decision of the School Academic Integrity Committee.

21. ARE INCIDENTS DEALT WITH DIRECTLY BY MODULE COORDINATORS RECORDED ON THE PLAGIARISM RECORD SYSTEM?
No, only cases where the School Academic Integrity Committee has found academic misconduct to have taken place are recorded. Where a case is referred to the Student Discipline Procedure and it is determined that plagiarism has occurred, the School will receive notification of the outcome and Student Engagement, Conduct, Capacity and Appeals Office will update the Plagiarism Record System.

22. HOW WILL THE INFORMATION RECORDED ON THE PLAGIARISM RECORD SYSTEM BE USED?
Information recorded on the system will be used to inform decision-making of School Academic Integrity Committee i.e., where a Committee receives an allegation of plagiarism it will be able to check the system to determine whether there have been any previous recorded incidents of plagiarism against the student, even if this occurred in another School. Once a Committee has determined that plagiarism had taken place, previous incidents can be taken into consideration when deciding on an appropriate penalty. Under the new UCD Plagiarism Tariff, which provides guidance on penalties, one of the factors that is considered by the Committee is whether the student has previously plagiarised in other assessments.

It important to note that the Plagiarism Record System is for internal use only. Information relating to plagiarism incidents by student will not be recorded on the student’s general record (in Banner) and will not appear in transcripts.

Q1. WHAT IS PLAGIARISM?
Plagiarism means using the work of others without acknowledging the original source. This includes presenting the ideas, theories, concepts, methodologies or data from the work of another person (including other students, friends, family, or purchasing work from a third party) without acknowledgement and appropriate citation. Plagiarism can occur in any form of work you may be asked to do at University, this includes essays, projects, digital work, music, language assessments, images and video recordings. A full definition of plagiarism can be found in the Academic Integrity Policy. Please also refer to the Plagiarism and Academic Integrity Procedure - Student Guide and the (opens in a new window)UCD Library resources on academic integrity which provide helpful and practical assistance for understanding what plagiarism is and how you can avoid it. 

Q2. WHY PLAGIARISM SHOULD BE AVOIDED?
The UCD Student Code of Conduct states that academic integrity is a fundamental principle underpinning all academic activity at UCD. It is important that you uphold your own academic integrity and that of the University. Studying at university provides an opportunity to develop your critical thinking skills, engage with academic knowledge and demonstrate the extent of your reading. Plagiarising the work of others undermines your own learning experience and devalues the hard work of others. Incidents of plagiarism may be subject to action under the University’s Student Discipline Procedure. 

Q3. WHAT CAN I DO TO AVOID PLAGIARISM?
The UCD Library provides some helpful resources on academic integrity and avoiding plagiarism. Below are the Library’s top 5 tips:

  • Acknowledge all sources. If using information from others, indicate where it came from in your text and reference using a citation style.
  • Record where all quotes or new ideas come from when making notes in preparation for assignments.
  • Paraphrase correctly; express the information of others in your own words, along with an in-text citation and reference. 
  • Quote correctly; when directly quoting from a text include appropriate quotation marks or indentation. Include a reference at the end. (See your (opens in a new window)School’s Style Guide for details). 
  • Check your (opens in a new window)School’s preferred citation style. Keep the style guide to hand when writing assignments so you can include in-text citations and references in the correct format.

Please visit the (opens in a new window)UCD Library resources on academic integrity for plagiarism tutorials and further guidance.

Q4. WHAT ARE EXAMPLES OF PLAGIARISM?
Examples of plagiarism include:

  • Using phrases, clauses, sentences, paragraphs or longer extracts from published or unpublished work (including from the internet) without appropriate acknowledgement of the source. 
  • Presenting direct extracts without quotation marks or other appropriate indication. It is not sufficient simply to acknowledge the source. 
  • Copying the same or a very similar idea from a published or unpublished work without appropriate acknowledgement. 
  • Changing the order of words taken from source material but retains the original idea or concept without appropriate acknowledgement. 
  • Copying or using, without appropriate acknowledgement, any material from non-written work including, but not limited to, visual and digital media, images, computer code, musical notation, recording or composition, performance or oral presentations.
  • Using the work of another student without appropriate acknowledgement in a way that exceeds the bounds of legitimate cooperation. 
  • Reusing your own work without citing or acknowledging its original use. This is known as self-plagiarism.
  • Using undeclared and/or unauthorised third parties, online or directly, to assist you to produce work for academic credit, whether or not payment involved. This includes buying a completed assignment from a tutoring or ghost-writing company and asking a friend or family member to write part or all of an assignment for you. This is called contract cheating.
  • The unauthorised use of generative artificial intelligence is also unacceptable.


Q5. WHAT IS PARAPHRASING?
Paraphrasing is writing the thoughts and ideas of others in your own words. Copying, pasting and making minor edits to the text is not an acceptable form of paraphrasing. All paraphrased information included in your work must be cited. You must include a full reference in your reference list to the source of your paraphrased information. Some citation styles also require a page number for the paraphrased information to be included as part of the in-text citation.

See below for an example of unacceptable and acceptable paraphrasing:
The following ORIGINAL text has been taken from the book The Google Story.
“Not since Gutenberg invented the modern printing press more than 500 years ago, making books and scientific tomes affordable and widely available to the masses, has any new invention empowered individuals, and transformed access to information, as profoundly as Google.”
From: Vise, David A. (2005) The Google Story. Macmillan: London

Unacceptable paraphrasing of above text - plagiarism
The most important invention that has affected access to information since Gutenberg invented the modern printing press and made books affordable and widely available, is Google, an invention that has empowered individuals and transformed access to information around the world.

This passage is considered plagiarism because:

  • The writer does not cite the author as the source of the ideas
  • The passage is too close to the original text
  • Only a few phrases or words have been changed.
    If one or more of the above criteria are included in any piece of work, it is considered plagiarism.

Acceptable paraphrasing of above text - not plagiarism
It has been stated that Google has revolutionised the information world by providing access to information through the internet. Vise notes that Google is the most radical information development since Gutenberg's invention of the printing press. (Vise, 2005, p.1)

This is acceptable paraphrasing because:

  • The author of the text has been cited correctly
  • The writer has used their own words
  • The writer gives credit for the ideas in the passage

Q6. WHAT IS ‘COLLUSION’ IN THE CONTEXT OF ONLINE EXAMINATIONS? 
Collusion in the context of an online examination is seeking the assistance of others, or offering to assist others, during a period in which the examination is taking place. You should not contact others through any means to discuss examination questions, answers or topics. This includes the period where you may have finished your exam early, but others may be continuing. The work submitted must be entirely your own.

Q7. WHAT IS THE UCD STUDENT ACADEMIC MISCONDUCT PROCEDURE?
The Student Academic Misconduct Procedure guides academic staff and students on the steps to be followed when there is a suspected instances of plagiarism. It is important that you familiarise yourself with this procedure. Schools may also provide additional information in School Plagiarism Protocol documents. 

Q8. HOW IS PLAGIARISM DETECTED?
The University uses sophisticated plagiarism detection software, in addition, often examiners will also be able to detect plagiarism through observing changes in writing styles or the variation in the quality of particular portions of an assignment. Poor and incorrect citation will also be easily noted by examiners.

Q9. WHAT HAPPENS IF PLAGIARISM IS SUSPECTED? 
Module Coordinators will take account of the context and nature of each case, and may take any of the following actions:

  • Discuss directly with the student to determine the facts of the case.
  • Provide, or arrange that the student receives one-to-one advice about academic integrity and avoiding plagiarism.
  • Refer the student to the UCD Library or the Writing Centre for guidance on good writing practices and avoiding plagiarism. The grade awarded for the assessment may reflect your poor academic practice.
  • Refer the case to the School Academic Integrity Committee as an alleged case of plagiarism. Where cases are referred, the Module Coordinator will provide the School Academic Integrity Committee with a short report outlining the grounds of suspicion, a copy of the piece of work and any supporting evidence.

Q10. DO I HAVE TO ATTEND A MEETING WITH THE SCHOOL ACADEMIC INTEGRITY COMMITTEE? 
If you have been invited to a meeting with the School Academic Integrity Committee you are strongly advised to attend as it will provide you with an important opportunity to understand why your work is under review and respond to the committee’s queries in relation to how you approached your work. If you wish, you can be accompanied to meetings by someone to support you, such as your Student Adviser or an SU Sabbatical Officer. The role of this person is to accompany you. The committee will want to hear from you directly.

If you do not respond to the committee’s communications or choose not to attend a meeting the committee may proceed based on documentation, which may include your written submission where the school has invited you to do so.

Q11.  WILL PLAGIARISM APPEAR ON MY STUDENT RECORD?
Plagiarism is a breach of the Student Code of Conduct and records of students who have been found to have plagiarised by a School Academic Integrity Committee or through the University level Student Discipline Procedure will be maintained in the University, but it will not appear on your general student record or your transcript. Records will be held in accordance with the (opens in a new window)Student Engagement Conduct Complaints and Appeals unit’s record retention schedule.

Q12. WHY ARE PLAGIARISM INCIDENTS RECORDED ON A PLAGIARISM RECORD SYSTEM? 
The University Plagiarism Record System records cases of plagiarism by students to allow the application of the policy and to inform decision-making of the School Academic Integrity Committees i.e., where a committee receives an allegation of plagiarism it will be able to check the system to determine whether there have been any previous recorded incidents of plagiarism against the student, even if this occurred in another School. Once the committee agreed that plagiarism had taken place, previous incidents can be taken into consideration when deciding on an appropriate penalty. Access to the central Plagiarism Record System is restricted to nominated staff members in each School.

Q13. CAN I APPEAL A DECISION OF THE SCHOOL ACADEMIC INTEGRITY COMMITTEE? 
There are certain circumstances where appeals are permitted, known as ‘grounds for appeal’:

  • procedural irregularity: there is evidence that procedures relating to the decision were not followed properly, which may have impacted the decision.
  • new evidence: information relevant to the decision, which for good reason was not available to the School Academic Integrity Committee.
  • disproportionate outcome or penalty: it should be noted that Schools are entitled to make decisions in accordance with the policy, in appealing on this ground students must demonstrate how the penalty applied is disproportionately severe in relation to the circumstances of their case.

Students cannot appeal simply because they are unhappy with the decision of the committee. Appeals must be submitted to the University Student Appeals Committee within 10 working days from the date of issue of the decision of the School Academic Integrity Committee. Further details found in the Student Appeals webpage. 

Q14. WHAT DECISIONS CAN THE STUDENT APPEALS COMMITTEE MAKE?
A Student Appeals Committee will decide to either:

  • uphold the appeal (in part or in full) and make a decision different to the School Academic Integrity Committee;
  • not uphold the appeal and confirm that the decision of the School Academic Integrity is correct.

Where the Student Appeals Committee is considering an appeal against a penalty imposed, they may decrease or increase a penalty or vary the nature of the penalty.

Q15. WHAT IS ACADEMIC FILE SHARING? 
Academic file sharing is the academically unethical and illegal distribution of copyrighted course materials, assignment documents, and assessments.

Q16. WHAT IS UNIVERSITY OWNED MATERIAL? 
The following are examples of university owned material, which includes, but is not limited to:

  • lecture slides
  • course notes or handouts 
  • recordings of lectures 
  • examination or test papers / questions and answers
  • external examiner reports
  • journal articles / book chapters (your lectures may use materials from other sources in class such as library licenced journal articles or book chapters. Do not share this material outside of class without contacting your lecturer).

Q17. WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF I SHARE UNIVERSITY MATERIAL? 

  • You should avoid uploading any university material to external information sharing websites of platforms services such as CourseHero/Studocu/Chegg.
  • Where the University is made aware that UCD content has been shared we will contact the relevant platform/website owners to instruct that the material be removed immediately. 
  • Where students are identified as engaging in this activity may be subject to the University’s disciplinary procedures, under the UCD Student Code of Conduct and the Student Discipline Procedure.   

Q18. CAN I SHARE MY OWN WORK? 
File Sharing websites are designed for students to upload their own work, such as essays and assignments. You should be mindful that although you may wish to help others uploading your work facilitates other students to engage in academic misconduct. You may also be at risk of allegations of collusion if the University’s plagiarism detection software identifies similarities between your work and others. 

  • Student Advisers - Each programme has a dedicated Student Adviser who can offer support, information and advice. Access contact details and information on a range of student issues. 
  • Chaplaincy - UCD Chaplains are available for support, guidance and advice.
