Student Responsibility
Academic integrity
• It is the foundation of university life and is a fundamental to the reputation of NU
• Academic integrity means a commitment by all staff and students to act with
honesty, trustworthiness, fairness, respect and responsibility in all academic
work.
• An important part of practising integrity in academic work is showing respect for
other people's ideas, and being honest about how they have contributed to your
work
• Using another person's work without proper acknowledgement is considered
Academic Misconduct, and the NU takes this very seriously.
• Demonstrating highest standards of academic integrity endows the trust and high
value to the degree earned from NU

Student Responsibility
Quality of work and report
This course is most classical and fundamental science in Mechanical Engineering
and a major foundation of invention of machines, without a fair knowledge of which
no one can claim to be a Mechanical Engineer. Therefore, it is important that
1- Act responsible towards the course; follow instructor slides, enrich knowledge by
reading from textbook, attempt all tutorial questions
2- Attend lectures, tutorials and practical where comprehensive coverage for the
topic along with in-depth analysis
3- Submit high quality work (exam scripts and reports) when requested. The
submitted work presents the seriousness of students regarding the course, In
addition to the content, marks will be deducted in case of submission poor quality
works; quality includes scanning quality, writing format, and clarity and readability
