other students that you will be studying
with. Our Orientation Leaders are current
or past students who have been selected by
staff to assist throughout the day, and can
answer questions about life at Curtin College.
Student Cards

Academic Integrity
Students at Curtin College enter an
academic environment which is bound
by certain rules of behaviour. Academic
Page 7
integrity refers to the fact that students
must uphold certain principles and follow
the rules of behaviour of the academic
community.
Curtin College is committed to ensuring
that all students behave with academic
integrity. Therefore, it is essential that
students understand the principles
underlying academic integrity and behave
in a manner according to these principles.
Academic Misconduct is regarded as a
serious offence and includes:
•Plagiarism,
•Unauthorized collaboration,
•Cheating in Tests/Examinations,
•Theft of other students’ work
(including any copying),
•Copying of visual representations,
(cartoons, line drawings, photos,
paintings, computer programs,
images, tables and graphs).
Plagiarism
Plagiarism means presenting the work or
property of another person as one’s own,
without appropriate acknowledgement or
referencing. Students face serious penalties
for plagiarism depending on the level.
Penalties may include:
• Zero for the assignment,
• Failure of the unit and/or
• Suspension from the course.
Each offence is recorded in the student
notes and in the plagiarism records
sheet; be aware that each offence counts,
regardless of which subject it occurs in.
Cheating
Cheating is considered dishonest conduct
in any assessment. For more details refer
< Home
Index >
www
to the Academic Integrity Policy and
Student Misconduct Policy on the Curtin
College website.
Turnitin
Turnitin is online web-based text-matching
software that works by comparing
electronically submitted papers to billions
of pages of content located on the Internet
and proprietary databases as well as the
work of other students whose papers have
also been submitted into the system.
Curtin College uses this software to provide
a valuable addition to existing methods
supporting the College’s Academic Integrity.
When student papers are submitted to
Turnitin, the paper will become a permanent
online record of the work. Sections of
the papers that match other sources are
highlighted and identified. This generates
an Originality Report which is made
available to the Lecturer concerned. The
Lecturer will determine the quality of the
Originality Report and use it to assess
whether parts identified by Turnitin as
non-original may be reasonably considered
as plagiarism. Students will be advised by
their Lecturer whether they are required to
submit their assessment to this system.
For further information about using
Turnitin please contact your lecturer or
course coordinator. General information
about the Turnitin program can be found at
www www.turnitin.com.
Referencing
Students should use the CHICAGO 16th
Edition referencing style when preparing
assignments. More information can be
found on this style from the Library
www website: www.library.curtin.edu.au
Page 8
Appeals
Students have the right to appeal any
academic decision that affects them,
and the College has formal processes for
dealing with these. There are four separate
processes depending on whether the appeal
is related to:
In class Assessments
Upon notification of the mark awarded for
an assessment item, a student who believes
that their result is incorrect or unfair may
submit an appeal against their mark.
Final Result Appeal
Upon notification of the final result,
students who believe that their result is
incorrect or unfair may submit an appeal
against their mark.
Termination and Conditional Status
A student who has received notification of
their terminated or conditional academic
status may appeal this decision.
Appeal Against Admission
Anyone dissatisfied with the outcome of
their application to attend Curtin College,
can appeal this decision.
For more details refer to the Appeals Policy www

Student
Support
Curtin College provide support to students
as they adjust to living and studying in
Australia. The College can assist in resolving
problems which may affect the successful
completion of studies. Talking to staff and/
or other professionals is a good way to help
resolve issues which can affect a students
personal life or study. However, students
must be active in seeking information, asking
questions, and reading the correspondence
sent to them by Curtin College.
Please see the Student Portal and posters
around the College for more information.
Welfare
Personal problems, concerns and worries
are a normal part of our lives, especially
for students adjusting to life in a new
environment. Stress, concerns or personal
problems are very common and can have a
significant impact on well-being and health
and also on academic performance.
If you are experiencing a personal problem
or are worried about something, it is
important you speak to someone.
Many students find it helpful to speak to
family or friends about problems they are
having. In some cases this works. However,
Page 15
< Home
Index >
there comes a point that despite the efforts
of those around you, you still feel like
things are not changing, negative thoughts
abound or you feel out of control of certain
aspects of your behaviour.
The Student Advisory Team are available to
confidentially discuss any general concerns
or issues you may have. It is not always
about looking for solutions; sometimes just
talking issues through can help.
Problems that students often discuss
include:
• General stress, anxiety and worry
• Family problems (e.g. divorce, death
or illness of a family member)
• Health issues (e.g. long term illness,
pregnancy)
• Accommodation (e.g. being evicted,
unsuitable living arrangements)
• Legal issues (e.g. being involved in an
accident, understanding contracts)
• Financial (e.g. inability to pay tuition
fees)
If the Advisors are unable to assist you
they can also refer you to a professional
who can help (e.g. Curtin Counselling).
Adjusting to a New Environment
Curtin College has qualified staff to support
you as you adjust to living and studying in
Australia and/or to assist you in resolving
problems which may affect the successful
completion of your studies.
Talking to qualified staff and/or other
professionals is a good way to help resolve
issues which are affecting your personal life
or study.
Every student adapts to the new environment
differently. Upon arriving in Australia you
may feel confused and tired or anxious.
Page 16
It is also possible that you feel excited or
exhilarated.
Over the initial weeks and months of
coming to Curtin College it is likely that
you will experience other emotions that are
quite different to the way you felt initially
(or are feeling now).
There is a process that students may go
through:
Stage 1: Honeymoon Phase
Often this is characterized by a sense of
excitement because everything is new. This
might be during Orientation or the first few
weeks of the study period.
Stage 2: Culture Shock
As the academic demands of College
begin to appear, you might begin to feel
overwhelmed and perhaps worried.
You may be experiencing a new language,
a new climate, new friends, new food, new
ways of learning and also a new sense of
independence. This often happens about
week four or five.
Stage 3: Initial Adjustment
This is when you start to feel that
everything is becoming familiar. You begin
to feel more confident about adjusting to
the new culture and the College.
Stage 4: Mental Isolation
Even though you were starting to feel
more comfortable it is sometimes possible
that there is another period afterwards
where you continue to experience further
concerns. This can be because whilst you
are starting to adjust to the environment
and your new independence, you may start
to worry that you are losing stable values
and beliefs, rather than developing more
flexibility in integrating new ones.
< Home
Index >
Stage 5: Acceptance, Integration,
and Connectedness
Finally, you continue to connect
with students and staff in your new
environment, and become more integrated
into the College culture.

activities including discussions, pair work
and group work. Students will be advised by
