These days plagiarism in academics is increasingly becoming a major concern in several nations.
This
 essay will explore two of the causes of
this
 problem and propose measures that might address them. One of the possible reasons for plagiarism in academics is that the increasing cut-off marks for acceptance in universities or colleges.
This
 is because in many countries there is a limited number of seats available for professional courses, which means that only those students get admission who will have higher marks.
Consequently
, a good number of students don't get admittance to

government-funded educational institution. To tackle
this
 issue, the government should open new universities and colleges so that more pupils can get admission to
such
 courses.
This
 should release the pressure from youth to obtain higher credentials so that they can continue their education,
hence
 reducing cheating in examinations. Turning to force education, one pressing problem is that in many developing countries, parents pressurize their kids to opt for science & technology-related subjects, due to a great total of job opportunities available in
such
 fields. As a consequence, many lose their interest in studies due to lack of interest in
such
 field of study, in turn, they struggle to get a good score which makes them cheat someone else work.
This
 problem could be mitigated by allowing pupils to choose courses of their choice so that not only will it reduce
this
 unfair means but it will
also
 excel them in their field of education. In conclusion, two of the main causes of plagiarism are the limited number of resources available to the governments and the undesired field of learning.
However
, these issues can be managed by increasing seats in the universities by the authorities and giving students a choice to choose their interested stream.
