The current study aims to investigate awareness of research students about the concept
of plagiarism and to suggest possible ways to avoid it; a descriptive survey study was
conducted. The objectives of the study were to examine the researcher’s knowledge
about concept of plagiarism, knowledge about specific terminologies, types of plagiarism,
and consequences of plagiarism and to suggest possible ways to avoid it. Study was
delimited to the research students of Faculty of Education at PhD, M.Phil. and MA level in
Allma Iqbal Open University. A sample of hundred students was selected through
snowball sampling technique, five point Likert scale questionnaire was used to collect the
data. Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics. Major finding were that most of
the students had misconception of plagiarism, most of them were unaware about the
