Paper plagiarism case
Following the online exposure of the "Best Master's Thesis in History" incident, yesterday, Ping Jiang, Dean of the School of Statistics of Dongbei University of Finance and Economics, revealed that the school had been informed of relevant reports and was holding a meeting to discuss the final processing results. The propaganda department of the school said that the school is verifying that if Yuan Xin's plagiarism is true, his degree may be revoked. The plagiarist was "shocked" and "the best plagiarist of master's thesis in history". Whose paper was plagiarized? The reporter learned that the author of this paper is Zeng Kangning, a graduate student majoring in statistics at Nanjing University of Finance and Economics. At present, I am engaged in market analysis and investigation in a company in Shanghai. "I didn't know about it until yesterday. I was shocked by what my classmates said. I immediately went online to see it. " Zeng Kangning told reporters that the degree of plagiarism is indeed very serious. Zeng Kangning recalled that it took half a year to write this paper, and the tutor gave a good evaluation. For master students, you can't expect him to create a new theory, but at least you should have your own analysis under the guidance of the theory. It is too much to copy it directly and get a replacement key, which has a bad influence. We will continue to wait and see the development of the situation before making a decision. "Maybe the other school will also investigate and verify." Subsequently, the reporter contacted Hu Ronghua, a master tutor of Zeng Kangning and a professor of statistics at the School of Economics of Nanjing University of Finance and Economics. Professor Hu told reporters that a long time ago, some students complained that they had copied the papers of their seniors and brothers when they were writing papers to check the information, and they didn't care at that time. At present, the boundary of plagiarism is not clear, and how many words are copied is plagiarism. For graduate students, the research has just begun, and it is inevitable to learn from it, and it is impossible to innovate on their own. But you can't just copy it without digesting it, at least understand it, solve problems in this way, and find other people's weaknesses. This is your innovation. There is a precedent of 198 1 year for revoking a degree certificate. China began to implement the Regulations on Academic Degrees in People's Republic of China (PRC), which clearly stipulates that "the degree-conferring unit may revoke the awarded degree if it finds that it has seriously violated the provisions of these regulations, such as fraud and forgery." In 2004, the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) promulgated the Decision on Amending the Regulations on Academic Degrees in People's Republic of China (PRC), and the above provisions have not been amended. After graduation, my degree certificate was revoked because of plagiarism, which is a precedent in China. At the end of 2006, Nankai University found that there was plagiarism in a doctoral thesis in 2004. After investigation, the academic Committee of the university revoked the awarded doctoral degree and informed the plagiarized students to return their degree certificates. Yesterday, the reporter asked the dean of the School of Statistics of Dongbei University of Finance and Economics how to deal with the suspected plagiarism of student tutors. Dean Jiang hung up on the grounds of a meeting. According to the website of the Institute of Statistics, Yang Zhongshan, the instructor of Yuan Xin suspected of plagiarism, also serves as the vice president of the Institute. According to the Morning Post.
