5. Branches of Study
6. Course Calendar
The marks allotted for internal continuous assessment and Semester-End university
examinations shall be 50 marks and 100 marks respectively with a maximum of 150
marks for each theory subject.
The sessional marks awarded for attendance shall be awarded in direct proportion to the
percentage of attendance secured by the candidate in the subject. Full credit for regularity
in the class can be given only if the candidate has secured minimum 90% attendance in
the subject.
For Seminar, Project, and Viva Voce (in 8th semester), the minimum for a pass
shall be 50% of the total marks assigned to the respective examination.
If a candidate has passed all examinations of B.Tech. course (at the time of
publication of results of eighth semester) except Viva-Voce in the eighth semester, a re-
examination for the Viva-Voce should be conducted within one month after the
publication of results. Each candidate should apply for this ‘Save a Semester
examination’ within one week after the publication of eighth semester results.
Each subject shall have a certain number of credits assigned to it depending upon
the academic load and the nature and importance of the subject. The credit associated
with each subject will be shown in the prescribed scheme and syllabi. Each course shall
have an integer number of credits, which reflects its weightage.
11. Grading
The university shall award the letter grade to students based on the marks secured
by them in both internal assessment and Semester-End examinations taken together in the
subjects registered. Each letter grade indicates a qualitative assessment of the student’s
performance and is associated with a specified number of grade points. The grading
system along with the grade points for each grade, applicable to passed candidates is
shown below. All passed candidate will be allotted a grade S, A, B, C, D, or E according
to the total marks scored by him/her.
If a candidate does not pass a subject as per the conditions given in Section (9),
he/she will be assigned an Unsatisfactory grade ‘U’ irrespective of his/her total marks. If
a student does not pass a subject in two attempts, the maximum grade he/she can get is
‘C’ when he/she passes the subject in any subsequent examination, whatever be the
marks scored by him/her.
A student is considered to have completed a subject successfully and earned the
credits if he/she secures a letter grade other than ‘U’ in that course. Letter grade ‘U’ has
zero grade point and the candidate has to write the examination again to improve the
grade. A student's performance is measured by the number of credits that he/she has
earned and by the cumulative grade point average (CGPA) maintained by him/her.
Failed U 0.0
(a) A Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) shall be computed for all the students
for each semester, as follows:
n
∑ Ci G i
i =1
SGPA = n
∑ Ci
i =1
(b) A Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) shall be computed for all the
students at the end of each semester by taking into consideration their
performance in the present and the past semesters as follows:
m
∑ Ci G i
i =1
CGPA = m
∑ Ci
i =1
13. Improvement
Candidates shall be allowed to improve the grade of any two theory subjects in a
semester. This can be done only in the immediate subsequent chance. If the candidate
gets more marks in the improvement chance, marks scored in the improvement chance
will be considered for grading in the subject; otherwise marks scored in the first attempt
will be retained. No candidate shall be permitted to improve the marks scored in practical
examinations and internal continuous assessment.
