STOP PLAGIARISM

Do you want to detect, prevent and handle plagiarism? 

We are subscribed to TURNITIN, a plagiarism detection software that allows you to check student papers for text similarities against millions of sources, both academic and non-academic. It is seamlessly integrated with e-Course, so assignments are automatically inspected as they are submitted by students. You can also upload papers directly for plagiarism detection through your account on www.turnitin.com. If you haven’t activated your TURNITIN account yet, please contact us for training and assistance.

Please consult with us when checking your students' senior theses, as there can sometimes be misunderstandings in interpreting the results.
