Abstract
Until recently, very few efforts have been made to study the dishonest behavior in Middle-Eastern universities. This study examined the self-reported prevalence of on line cheating among nursing students and their perception on the successful strategies to combat academic dishonesty on campus in a public university in Oman. Late Breaking Reason: As we are converting many of our teaching learning strategies to online, it is imperative to understand the perception of nursing students on academic dishonesty. The integrity of the nursing profession may be jeopardized as students with the habit of cheating graduate and enter this noble profession.
