Abstract

It is known by many names...unethical behavior in higher education, academic fraud, academic misconduct. It takes many forms...plagiarism, cheating on tests or exams, cybercheating. But all describe the characteristics of the same phenomenon: academic dishonesty. It is met in all societies and in the academic environments since ancient times. The aim of this overview was to analyze the major studies and research having as central points of discussion academic dishonesty and workplace dishonesty. In this respect, a relationship between the two phenomena has been identified. The students who are engaged in unethical behaviours are more likely to behave in such manner also in the workplace.
