Plagiarism occurs when students use the work, research, ideas, or words of any other person or source without proper citation or credit.

Fabrication

Individual Course Circumstances
Professors may have a plagiarism or academic dishonesty policy that is unique to a specific course and all professors should iterate the university statement on academic dishonesty in course guides. However, whether or not the professor has stated a policy, he or she has the right to take action in cases of academic dishonesty. By accepting a syllabus and seeking credit for a course, a student accepts that the professor or the university has the right to fail them in a course or remove them from a program because of the academic dishonesty.
Grounded in the U.S. Constitution, copyright law grants protection to original works of authorship fixed in a tangible means of expression. That includes just about anything that is written, recorded, built or crafted, whether published or unpublished. It even includes websites and the images on them!
If you want to use, sample or make a copy of all or part of a work created by someone else, you need to first determine how copyright law applies to your situation.
