Dr. Pallavi Patel College of Health Care Sciences (PCHCS)—Department of Occupational Therapy 2024–2025 216 Courses that are Pass/Fail will be graded as follows: P or Pass (80 percent or higher) F or Fail (79 percent or lower) Incomplete Coursework Students may receive a grade of incomplete (I) in a course if they are passing the course, based on all completed coursework to date, but are unable to complete all course requirements due to documented medical reasons or extenuating personal circumstances. An I will be changed to an earned grade upon a student’s satisfactory completion of the course or residency requirements. A change from an I to an earned grade must occur prior to the end of the agreement of the contract period, or the student’s grade will be converted to an F. The taking of incompletes is strongly discouraged and requires written approval of the course instructor. The course instructor’s written approval will specify the time frame during which the course requirements must be completed. Authorship Credit and Order Guidelines and Policy • Principal authorship, order of authorship, and other publication credits should accurately reflect the relative scientific, technical, professional, or scholarly contributions of the individuals involved. • No authorship credit should be given to someone whose suggestion/idea/feedback may have influenced a project, but did not actively participate in project development and implementation. This person could be acknowledged as described in bullet five (following). • Authorship is not merited solely for administrative support, financial contribution, or a supervisor/ adviser’s position. • Authorship credit should go to those who do the actual writing and to those who have made significant scientific or scholarly contributions to a study, such as formulating hypotheses, structuring the design, conducting the analysis, interpreting results, or writing a major portion of a manuscript. • Those with minor contributions to the manuscript are appropriately acknowledged in footnotes, an introductory statement, or acknowledgments. • The following apply to students as authors: − A student is usually listed as a principal author on a multiple-authored paper that is substantially based on the student’s dissertation, report, or project. − The student, however, is not automatically entitled to authorship if only some or minor material from the project is used in a paper, proposal, or progress or final report written by the student’s adviser, a faculty member, or supervisor. Reference to the material’s origin is sufficient in these cases. − If the student’s dissertation or project is based on data collected as part of a larger research project under the supervision of one or more faculty members, it is appropriate to include those supervisors or faculty members as coauthors.
