Policy on Cheating and Plagiarism

The Department of Computer Science's policy on cheating and plagiarism can be found at: Academic Honesty
Seeking Assistance

For assistance with course material and course work you should visit the course lecturer during their published office hours. The Department of Computer Science also has a team of support staff (see the posters around the labs for support contacts) who are happy to provide guidance on more general issues to do with your study in computer science.
Catching up on Missed Material

If you miss a lecture, you should catch up as soon as possible by reading the corresponding lecture notes that are available online. If you miss the deadline for an assignment and have a valid reason, you should see the course supervisor. If you miss the test/exam for any valid reason, or you sit the test/exam but believe that your performance was impaired for some reason, then you may be able to apply for an aegrotat, compassionate or special pass consideration. For more detailed information, refer to the University of Auckland's Calendar.
