Members of the UN Academic Virtue Commission “Chernihiv Polytechnic”, which denies the presence of plagiarism in the works of the former rector of a higher education institution, and now Minister of Education and Science Sergei Shkarlet, were caught plagiarizing.
This is stated by a study published on the website “Errors and falsifications in scientific research”.
Thus, in the doctoral thesis of the president of the commission Viktoriya Margasova “Strategy to guarantee the stability of the Ukrainian economy in the face of threats to economic security” they found text loans without references, synonyms and adequate paraphrases in a total of 70 pages.
And in the dissertation of a member of the commission, Alina Pinchuk, who is also an associate professor and director of the university’s educational and scientific institute of economics, they found suspicious and deliberately false publications, as well as numerous academic cross-plagiarism.
Scientists believe that Alina Pinchuk, in her 2020 dissertation “Strategy to ensure the sustainable development of agriculture in the context of the digitization of the Ukrainian economy”, appropriated the text, in particular, the dissertation of the professor of the same university, Tatyana Shestakovskaya. At the same time, Shestakovskaya also has excerpts from an article previously written by Alina Pinchuk in her dissertation.
