PREFACE
Dear Students,
NIE is a premier technical institution of the country started nearly seventy years ago. Right from its
inception focus at NIE is to deliver value based education with academically well qualified faculty
and infrastructure. NIE now offers seven UG and twelve PG programmes. Research activities
undertaken at the institute has brought laurels and given unique status to our UG and PG
programmes. The alumni of NIE have achieved excellence in their chosen professions and their
accomplishments are of immense value to the Institute. It is a matter of pride that NIE continues to be
the preferred destination for students to pursue an engineering degree.
In the year 2007, NIE was granted academic autonomy by Visvevaraya Technological University
(VTU), Belagavi. From then onwards our prime focus is on developing and delivering a curriculum
which caters to the needs of various stakeholders. The curriculum has unique features enabling
students to develop critical thinking, solve problems, analyse socially relevant issues, etc. The
academic cycle designed on the basis of Outcome Based Education (OBE) strongly emphasises
continuous improvement and this has made our curriculum responsive to current requirements. Four
UG programmes and two PG programmes were recently accredited under Tier-1 of the National
Board of Accreditation (NBA), New Delhi. Other programmes are under the process of
accreditation. NIE's progress towards further academic excellence is visualized in the realms of
continuous improvement with increase in physical and intellectual infrastructure.
The curriculum at NIE has been developed by experts from academia and industry and it has unique
features to enhance problem solving skills apart from academic enrichment. The curriculum of UG
programmes has been thoroughly revised as per AICTE guidelines and we have incorporated unique
features such as competency training, industry driven elective, long internship. The curriculum is
designed in such a way so as to impart engineering education in a holistic way.
I hope you will have a fruitful stay at NIE.

9.5. Description of Grades:
S grade: This grade stands for Superlative grade which indicates outstanding
achievement by the student.
A grade: This grade stands for Excellent performance.
B grade: This grade stands for Very Good performance.
C grade: This grade stands for Good performance.
D grade: This grade stands for Average performance and is the minimum passing grade.
F grade: This grade denotes failure and hence very poor performance. A student who
obtains 'F' grade in a course shall repeat that course in a subsequent semester or makeup
term exam when it is offered. However, if a student gets 'F' grade in an elective theory
course, he/she can register for the same elective or an alternative elective, as
recommended by the Faculty Advisor and approved by the Departmental Council to
satisfy the credit requirement in subsequent semesters.
X grade: This grade is a transitional grade which denotes incomplete grade. A student
having satisfactory attendance and having high CIE rating (>=90%) in a course, but
SEE performance is poor, which could result in an overall 'F' grade in the course, will be
awarded this grade. The DC can consider the request of any such student for a make-up
examination and depending on the merit of the case and in consultation with the course
instructor permit him/her to appear for make-up examination. The 'X' grade would be
converted into one or the other of the letter grades (S/A/B/C/D/F) after the student
completes the course requirements.
W grade: This grade is awarded to a student having satisfactory attendance at classes,
but withdrawing from a course before the prescribed date in a semester under the
advice of the Faculty Advisor. Withdrawal from a course shall be allowed only
under exceptional circumstances and has to be recommended by the DC. No
withdrawal is permitted after the grades are announced. Further, a candidate having
shortage of attendance and/or fail to achieve the minimum requirements in CIE shall
also be awarded this grade.
Calculation of SGPA and CGPA:
∑[(course credits) X (Grade points)] for all courses with Letter grades, including F (in that semester)
SGPA=
∑[(course credits)] for all courses with letter grades, including F (until that semester)
∑[(course credits) X (Grade points)] for all courses with Letter grades, including F (in that semester)
CGPA=
∑[(course credits)] for all courses with letter grades, including F (until that semester)

9.6. Process of Evaluation, Announcement and Review of Grades:

a) The evaluation procedure to be adopted by a course instructor shall be announced
at the beginning of the semester, so that this procedure will be made known to all
the registered students. A copy of this procedure shall be submitted within two
weeks of the commencement of the semester to the Chairman of the DC and up on
