Preface
On April 12, there were some cases of academic misconduct in the academic circles, and the relevant state departments also notified and dealt with them, directly exposing the scandals in major universities.
Among the 15 colleges and universities reported, 8 are national key universities, and even 5 are medical schools.
Academic misconduct is an extremely bad event, with serious consequences for society and even hindering the development of the discipline.
So which schools are involved in academic misconduct, and what rules do they violate on their papers?
The university involved
As can be seen from the official website, cases of academic misconduct actually occur every year, and in recent years, multiple batches have been reported a year, which is unbelievable.
Although there are a lot of cases reported and handled every year, there are still many people who do not learn a long lesson and try to get away with a fluke mentality in order to achieve their goals.
However, academic misconduct is very harmful to society.
It will not only undermine the integrity foundation and credibility of the academic community, but also undermine the authenticity and reliability of academic research, and even mislead future scholars.
The most terrible thing is that academic misconduct will directly hinder the healthy development of the discipline and affect the further innovation and exploration of academic research.
Therefore, the state is very strict in grasping academic misconduct.
Despite this, there are still people who are constantly frantically testing the bottom line.
This is not the first batch of academic misconduct "talents" this year, and they have been notified by the state again.
On April 12, members of the National Natural Science Foundation of China notified a group of people who misbehaved academically.
Among them, this is only the first batch this year, and I don't know if there will be a second or third batch later.
After all, in 2021 and 2022, 4 batches were notified respectively.
In this briefing, 15 colleges and universities were involved.
These include North China Electric Power University, Central South University, Tongji University, Zhengzhou University, Shandong University, Jiangnan University, Xi'an Jiaotong University, and Dalian University of Technology.
In the results of the report, the names of the people involved and the school where they work were exposed, and the misconduct and the results of the handling were pointed out.
Now it's really time to completely expose these scandals of academic misconduct.
Among the 15 entities involved, there are scholars from many universities who have the problem of image plagiarism, plagiarism, and even tampering with data.
Just like Liu Zhikui, Liu Qingguang and others, who are scholars at Xi'an Jiaotong University, have the problems of plagiarism, improper operation of pictures, and disorderly use of pictures.
Their behavior was criticized in the circular, and they were disqualified from applying for science fund projects in the past two or three years.
They have even recovered the funds that had been allocated to them for the project.
There is also a serious repetition in Shen Sining's paper at Zhengzhou University, and there are even problems of tampering with data and charts.
Changing the data and charts shows how serious a problem this is, and if such a paper is really approved, it will seriously mislead many scholars.
After making such a serious mistake in academics, Shen Sining was directly disqualified from applying for and participating in the National Science Foundation of China for 5 years while being criticized and notified.
But in addition to the official criticism of academic misconduct, their reputation can be regarded as ruined, which can be said to be a big stain on their academic community.
In addition to them, there are the seasons of Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture and so on.
As a scholar, you should do your research with a true, effective and serious attitude, and there should not be such a big problem.
Therefore, since you have chosen the path of academics, you should uphold the mentality of seeking truth to do it, instead of cheating to achieve your own goals, and in the end you will only harm yourself.
This is inevitably reminiscent of the fact that at the beginning of this year, 11 graduate students jointly reported academic misconduct in their supervisors.
There is academic fraud on the part of the tutor
On January 16, such a message suddenly popped up in a scientific research group of master's and doctoral students.
There are 11 researchers who said that their supervisors have serious academic fraud, so they want to report it jointly, but because their individual power is too small, I hope everyone can actively forward and support.
I thought it might be a joke, but I didn't expect to click on a link and find that there was a 125-page PDF file for the accusation of academic fraud by the tutor.
It really blew everyone away.
In this 125-page PDF file, it can be seen that their supervisor, Professor Huang, is suspected of multiple academic misconduct.
This includes improper attribution and plagiarism.
It can be seen that such a person being a mentor is really a misguided child.
However, although their voices are justified, they still need to be investigated by the relevant departments.
It is reported that the 11 graduate students are all from Huazhong Agricultural University.
They reported their doctoral supervisor Huang Feiruo.
It is reported that these graduate students were ready to "run away" before the report, and they had already taken all their personal belongings from the laboratory.
Even they are ready to finish their studies.
Although I know that there is a big price to pay, in order to be able to prevent other graduate students from repeating the mistakes of the past and following their old paths, it is also to return a clean world to the academic world.
The 11 people put their fingerprints on the joint report.
It took a month to sort out the papers with academic fraud problems, resulting in a 125-page PDF file.
Who knew that in the process of investigation, Professor Huang even denied that he had academic misconduct.
However, after the investigation team's investigation, it was found that Professor Huang did have the problems mentioned by the above 11 students.
In the end, he was directly expelled from school, and even retracted all the false papers he had published before
It can be said that such a result is really popular with a large number of people, otherwise such people will only continue to mislead people and hinder the development and research of the discipline.
And he deserves such a fate, it can be said that academic fraud and academic misconduct will only ruin his reputation in the end.
epilogue
It is really shocking that there are many university scholars in this national bulletin, but in any case, I only hope that many scholars can always uphold a truth-seeking attitude to engage in scientific research.
Only in this way will academia be able to continue to benefit all humanity.
