Depending on the degree of the offense, penalties for cheating and plagiarism will range from a grade of “F” in the project and/or course to dismissal from the program and/or the University. Any incident will be dealt with on an individual basis by the Department Ethics Committee, consisting of the Director, the Graduate Program Coordinator, a member of our graduate faculty, and the faculty member who reported the infraction. All students are expected to be familiar with and comply with the University Academic Integrity Policy.

The Communications and Deafness Department takes plagiarism very seriously. Please refer to Kean University’s Academic Integrity Policy to review the different categories of academic dishonesty, by level of offense.
