Evaluation of Projects (Where ever Applicable)

i) A student who passes in all the theory courses but does not secure minimum grade E in
project as applicable has to resubmit a fresh project till he/she secures a minimum grade E.
His/her marks and/or grades in the theory courses that the student has passed will be carried
forward but he/she shall be entitled for grade E on passing.
ii) The evaluation of project and viva-voce examination shall be by awarding grade in the seven
point scale as given in (1) above.
iii) A student shall have to obtain minimum of grade E (or its equivalent marks) in project
evaluation and viva/voce taken together. i.e. 40% marks in project work. The evaluation of
project will be based on the following guidelines.

General Guidelines of the Evaluation System for All Semesters

The Credits are defined in terms of the learners time spent in hours which are divided
into two parts such as Actual and Notional. The value of a particular course can be measured in
number of Credit Points. The value of One Credit is equal to 30 to 40 learning hours.
The scheme of Examination shall be divided into two parts: Internal assessment and
External assessment (semester end examination). Internal Assessment includes Assignments,
Seminars, Case Studies, Quizzes, Viva, Open book test, Unit Tests etc..
Internal
assessment

Semester end
examination
60 %

Total (for each course or head of passing)

100%

The semester wise Credit Points will be varied from program to program but the total credits to
be earned by learner to achieve Under Graduate Program degree shall be 120 Credits.

Scheme of Examination: - The performance of the learners shall be evaluated into two parts.
The learners performance shall be assessed by Internal Assessment with 40% marks in the first
part and by conducting the Semester End Examinations with 60% marks in the second part.
For Term work/ internal
for examination such as:

(continuous) assessment, a teacher may select a variety of procedures

Mid Term Test (written or multiple choice questions objective)
Short Quizzes
Assignments
Case study
Extension/field/experimental Work
An Open Book Test (with the concerned teacher deciding what books
are to be allowed for this purpose)

The system of evaluation will be as follows:

Each term work module mentioned above will be evaluated in terms of marks first and then to
letter grades and grade points as shown in the following performance grading table shown below.
PASSING STANDARD AND PERFORMANCE GRADING:
PASSING STANDARD
Minimum grade E means grade E or D or C or B or A or O in seven point
scale.
