Mental illness, which can be referred to as mental illness is a disease which makes the mind to undergo persistent distractions either in the way of thinking or approach of behaving thus bringing about the lack of ability to keep up with the usual life demands and daily routines. It is a regular widespread occurrence which often denies a person the ability to attain a stable state of psychological order. Therefore, to establish a standard mental diagnosis, the recognition of the causes and effects of mental illness is quite vital. It helps one in comprehending the damages caused by misdiagnosis, its inaccuracy and why claiming the diagnostic clarity is quite essential in the full process of recovery. It takes quite a given procedure to determine the state of mental illness in a person (Bota, Fraser, & Groysman, 2017, p. 02).

The prominent personality of our choice for this assignment is Elon Musk, an entrepreneur and engineer known for his work in revolutionizing two industries at once, namely the electric vehicle industry and the space transport industry. According to our research and analysis, our team agreed that Elon Musk possesses some of the graduate attributes mentioned in the student handbook and also the web-site of UCSI University. The attributes that contributed to his success and matches to those mentioned in the graduate attributes, are: creative and critical thinking, ethical and civic responsibility, interpersonal skills, life-long learning, as well as entrepreneurship and management skills. Our team performed a detailed analysis of his biography, working mentality as mentioned in his interviews, as well as his accomplishments and experiences as an entrepreneur, to arrive at these results that firmly support our point.

This paper reports on a pilot project of the Turnitin plagiarism detection software, which was implemented to determine the impact of the software on the level of plagiarism among University of Botswana (UB) students. Students' assignments were first submitted to the software without their knowledge so as to gauge their level of plagiarism. The results recorded the average level of plagiarism among UB students to be 20.5%.The software was then introduced to the students and they were warned that their second assignments would be checked through the software. The results showed a 4.3% decrease in the level of plagiarism among students. A survey was conducted to find out the reasons why students plagiarise and also get the participants' views on the use of the software to fight plagiarism. To win the fight against plagiarism, the paper recommends that the university adopt a more comprehensive approach in dealing with the problems that addresses, among other things, the fundamental reason why students plagiarise.

In engineering programs an important part of the learning process takes place in practical assignments like capstone projects, internships and co-op assignments in industry. The assignments are very divers. Students have different roles, work in different environments and the learning outcomes are not uniform.

Integration occurs when a broad range of manufacturing and supporting activities are linked. CIM is the complete automation of a manufacturing plant, with all processes functioning under computer control and digital information tying them together. The three major functions in manufacturing are production, design, and management function. Production function converts resources into products. The design function transforms customer specifications into design. Finally the management functions plan and control production activities. The three computer aids in CIM are

A significantly improved far-infrared laser has been used to generate optically pumped laser emissions from 26 to 150 µm for CD 3 OH. Using an X-V-pumping geometry, several new laser emissions have been found for CD 3 OH. In addition, an increase in power, by factors from 10 to 1000, for many of the previously known shorter-wavelength laser lines, below 100 µm, has been observed. Frequency measurements for several lines have also been performed and have been reported to a fractional uncertainty up to ±2 × 10 −7 , permitting the spectroscopic assignment of the laser transition. One of the frequencymeasured lines, 44.256 µm observed using the 10R34 pump, has confirmed the assignment of the previously reported FIR emission (n, K ;
