In principle, the sampling ratio should not be less than 2%.

For individuals:

The Measures require that colleges and universities should investigate and verify graduation theses suspected of academic misconduct such as plagiarism, forgery, tampering, buying and selling, and writing on behalf of others in accordance with relevant procedures. For those verified, the awarded degree shall be revoked and the degree certificate shall be cancelled according to law.

For schools:

The "Measures" emphasize that for colleges and universities that have appeared "problem graduation thesis" for two consecutive years, if the proportion is high or the number of articles is large, the provincial education administrative department should inform them throughout the province, reduce the enrollment plan, conduct quality interviews, and put forward rectification requirements within a time limit.

For undergraduate majors with many sampling problems for three consecutive years, if they still fail to meet the requirements after rectification, it is deemed that the training quality cannot be guaranteed. The provincial education administrative department shall, in accordance with the relevant provisions, order it to suspend enrollment, or the provincial academic degree committee shall revoke its bachelor's degree authorization point.

Sampling process:

According to the person in charge, the provincial education administrative department determines the sampling list by random sampling, and the sampling papers cover all undergraduate colleges and universities in the region and all their undergraduate majors.

The sampling of undergraduate thesis is divided into two parts: initial evaluation and re-evaluation. In the initial evaluation stage, each paper is sent to 3 peer experts, and graduation papers with more than 2 (including 2) experts' comments as "unqualified" are regarded as "problematic graduation papers".

Of the three experts, 1 expert's evaluation is "unqualified", and two experts from the same industry will be sent for re-evaluation. In the re-evaluation stage, experts who exceed 1 position (including 1 position) among the two re-evaluation experts will be judged as "unqualified" and regarded as "problematic graduation thesis".
