Legal analysis: academic fraud refers to academic corruption such as plagiarism, plagiarism, possession of other people's research results, or forgery and modification of research data. After academic fraud is detected, it will generally be punished by moral condemnation, revocation of degree or title or suspension of practice in the system. Academic fraud is a very bad behavior and must be severely punished. Moral, institutional and legal means should be used to prevent and punish academic fraud.

At present, there is no criminal punishment or administrative punishment for academic counterfeiters. However, in academic fraud, there is a kind of fraud that may infringe on the intellectual property rights of others, such as copying other people's academic papers. The infringer shall stop the infringement and make economic compensation for the economic interests involved. Of course, it is not timely to regulate this kind of academic fraud only according to the law, nor can it solve the present situation. It is necessary to combine moral and institutional norms to make moral condemnation, and the system should withdraw the degree or title or stop practicing.
