ANTI-PLAGIARISM

Do you want to detect, prevent and handle plagiarism? 

We are subscribed to the TURNITIN plagiarism detection software that lets you check student papers for text similarities against millions of sources (academic and others). It is seamlessly integrated with the eCourse, so assignments are inspected automatically as they are submitted by students, or you can upload papers for plagiarism detection through your account on the www.turnitin.com site directly. If you haven't activated your TURNITIN account yet, please contact us to get training and assistance.

Please, consult with us when you check your students' senior theses because sometimes there is some misunderstanding in the interpretation of the results.
