Course description:

As part of the training, students learn the basic principles of legal protection of works. This is to draw students' attention to the possibility of protecting their own works by means of copyright standards, and, on the other hand, the necessity to respect someone else's copyrights. During the training, a lot of time is devoted to the phenomenon of plagiarism. Students learn what plagiarism is, what its characteristics are and what to do in order not to commit plagiarism, in particular in connection with the preparation of a diploma thesis, as well as what other copyright infringements are. The rules of liability for infringement of copyright standards, including the aforementioned plagiarism, are discussed, but not only. Students finally learn what the Unified Anti-plagiarism System is.

Course objectives:

The training aims to draw attention to the need to protect copyrights, in particular the right to authorship of a work, so that these rights are not infringed, especially in connection with the preparation of one's diploma paper.
