Academic Integrity

Academic dishonesty is a very serious matter.
Student-teacher relationships are built upon trust. Acts which violate this trust undermine the educational process.
Any portion of work handed in that is not your own, should cite the author. The penalties for plagiarism and other forms of cheating can be quite harsh.
Collaboration on assignments is encouraged, in fact essential, between lab partners. However, having one partner always work on hardware aspects and the other on the software or data analysis or report writing will be detrimental to all partners. All partners should understand and participate in all aspects of the lab exercise.
Cheating on an exam will be considered as academic dishonesty and will result in a failing grade for the course.
