特殊情况规定 Special Considerations

During the course of a student’s degree programme, they might be faced with exceptional personal, medical or family problems and/or difficult and distressing events that are outside their control and that negatively affect their ability to take assessments and their academic performance. Such problems are known as ‘extenuating circumstances’.

Extenuating circumstances are situations or events that meet all of the following criteria:

  • Exceptional - different to what a student has to deal with in their usual day-to-day life.
  • Outside of a student’s control – there was nothing that the student could do to stop it happening.
  • Negative impact – it must have had a demonstrably significant, negative impact on the student’s ability to study or to undertake an assessment.
  • The timing of the circumstances must be relevant to the claimed impact; these are usually short-term in nature.

The extenuating circumstances regulation and associated procedures provides mechanisms by which students may bring extenuating circumstances to the attention of the University and allow for the consideration of the impact of those extenuating circumstances on their academic performance and the provision of measures to address the impact, where possible and appropriate.

学术不诚信类型 Academic misconduct

学术不诚信主要包括以下类型：

# 原文 Policy wording 释义
1 Plagiarism is representing work or ideas of a third party as one’s own. Plagiarism is not limited to text-based sources; it also applies to the use of graphical material, images, video/audio, calculations, etc. 剽窃是将第三方的作品或想法视为自己的作品或想法；不限于文字来源，也适用于图表、图像、音视频、计算结果等。
2 False Authorship is where a student is not the sole author of the work they have submitted as their own work. False Authorship can be direct or through a platform or software (such as Course Hero or similar), an essay mill or a tutoring service. 指学生不是他们提交的作品的唯一作者，通常为代写或者使用未经许可的软件。
3 Collusion is cooperation in order to gain an unpermitted advantage. This may occur where students have collaborated on a piece of work and passed it off as their own individual efforts, or where one student has authorised another to use their work. 串通指的未经允许的合作，例如学生授权另一个学生使用其作品并上交。
4 Misconduct in examinations and in-person assessments, for example: copies from the examination script of another candidate; obtains or offers improper assistance; allows themselves to be impersonated or impersonates another candidate; has with them any unauthorised materials or electronic devices. 考场及面对面评估中的不当行为：复印他人考卷、代考或被代考、未经允许携带材料或者电子设备。
5 Fabrication or misrepresentation is the presentation or misrepresentation of fabricated data, results, references, evidence, or other material. 使用捏造的数据、结果、参考文献、证据或其他材料的陈述或歪曲。
6 Poor academic scholarship is conduct which breaches the standard of academic integrity expected by the University and which does not neatly fit into the definitions outlined above. 学术素养不良指违反学校所要求的学术诚信标准、但又不完全符合上述定义的其他不当行为。

学术不诚信惩罚 Academic penalty

学术不诚信经学院学术不诚信会议认定后（在不满足提交学术不诚信委员会条件的前提下），可处以下列处罚：

# 原文 Policy wording 释义
1 i) A written warning. (Where relevant, the lower standard of the piece of work will be reflected in the mark awarded but no further penalty will be imposed). 书面警告（如相关，作品的较低水准将体现在所给分数中，但不会施加进一步处罚）。
2 ii) A mark of zero for the specific material which is the subject of the academic misconduct or where the material does not constitute a specific paragraph or section. 对构成学术不诚信的特定材料判为零分（学术不诚信打分去除）。
3 iii) An overall percentage reduction to the piece of work reflecting the percentage of the work, which is the subject of academic misconduct, as determined by the Academic Misconduct Officer. 由学术不诚信负责人按学术不诚信所占比例对该作品进行整体百分比扣分（课程降低分数）。
4 iv) A mark of zero for the entire piece of coursework or assessment in which the academic misconduct has occurred. In the case of misconduct in an examination a mark of zero will be recorded for the examination in question. 对发生学术不诚信的整份课程作业或评估判为零分（考试则该次考试记零分）。
5 v) To be applied in relation to ‘failure to disclose previous experience or qualifications that are a bar to enrolment on a module’ only, a mark of zero for the module with the requirement for the student to take a different module as a reassessment (where a reassessment opportunity is permitted). 仅适用于“未披露阻碍选课的既往经历或资格”情形：该模块判为零分，并要求学生改修其他模块作为重考（如允许重考）。
6 vi) If the misconduct does not relate to work undertaken in a taught module or as part of a taught programme of study, the case should be referred to the Academic Misconduct Committee. 若不诚信行为与授课模块或授课项目无关，案件应提交学术不诚信委员会处理。
7 vii) Where an academic penalty is not appropriate, the Academic Misconduct Officer may request that the Chair of the Academic Appeals and Misconduct Committee uses summary jurisdiction to apply a fine up to a maximum of £250. 当学术处罚不适用时（如协助他人但本人未选修相关模块），可由委员会主席行使即决权处以最高250英镑的罚款。
8 — 停学或退学。
