Thus, I will present the regulation in the Romanian legal framework of the notion of plagiarism and the content of the obligation regarding the violation of good conduct in research and development through plagiarism and self- plagiarism. At the same time, will be analyzed the possible consequences of the plagiarism ascertained both before and after the granting of the doctor's degree, with the presentation of the situation of notifications through the CNATDCU, the way of sanctioning the plagiarism deeds, as well as the participation of the general public in the reporting of breaches of the norms of academics conduct on publicly presented doctoral theses.
