The Ministry of Education and Science proposes to include the fact of violation of academic integrity in the list of grounds for expelling a student from a higher education institution.
The corresponding norm is contained in the draft Regulation on the procedure for expulsion, interruption of studies, renewal and transfer of persons studying in institutions of higher education, submitted by the Ministry of Education and Culture for public discussion.
The document stipulates that the fact of violation of academic integrity by a student of higher education must be detected and established accordingly.
During the procedure of deduction for plagiarism, the legal rights of the student, in respect of whom the issue of violation of academic integrity has been raised, must be observed.
Public discussion of the draft document will continue until May 10.
Proposals are accepted at the email address infozvo@mon.gov.ua.
