STUDENT COMPLAINTS POLICY
Students at Qatar University have the right to pursue complaints related to faculty, staff, and other
students. The nature of the complaints may be either academic or non-academic. For more information
about the policy and processes related to this policy, you may refer to the students’ handbook.
ACADEMIC HONESTY
Qatar University is an academic community actively engaged in scholarly pursuits. As members of this
community, students are expected to recognize and honor standards of academic and intellectual
integrity. The College of Education supports the ideals of scholarship and fairness by rejecting all
dishonest work when it is submitted for academic credit. Qatar University encourages students to be
responsible and accountable for their decisions and actions. Any attempt by students to present the
work of others as their own or to pass an examination by improper means is regarded as a most serious
offense and renders those students who do so liable to disciplinary action. Assisting another student in
any such dishonesty, or knowing of this dishonesty and not reporting it, is also considered a grave
breach of honesty. Academic dishonesty and plagiarism are described on page 37 in the Qatar
University Student Handbook.
LEARNING SUPPORT
Qatar University operates Learning Support Centers on each campus to provide services to students to
supplement their in-class instruction and ability to meet course requirements. These services include
tutoring, acquiring efficient learning skills and strategies, academic and learning assessment (in
conjunction with the Counseling Center), and writing labs and workshops. Information about the
Learning Center may be found at http://www.qu.edu.qa/students/services/slsc/
. The instructor reserves the right to modify the syllabus in response to the best interests of the students.
