Preventing plagiarism at the University of Tübingen

Software and training course offers

In the winter semester 2019/20, the University of Tübingen introduced Turnitin, a service for checking the similarity of scientific texts ("plagiarism control"). Teachers can use this service to check scientific texts for similarities with already published texts in order to identify potential plagiarism more easily. Information on this service is available on the corresponding page of the ZDV.

For instructors, the ZDV offers training courses on working with Turnitin. Information on course content and registration can be found on the moodle pages of the ZDV.

For students, the University Library offers regular training courses on how to cite correctly and avoid accidental plagiarism - also in English. The schedule is available in the ILIAS of the University Library: German courses and English courses.
