V. Examination, Assessment and Letter Grades/Grade Points

In assessing the performance of the students in examinations, the approach is to award marks
based on the examinations conducted at various stages (CIE and Semester End Examination) in
a semester. These marks are converted to letter grades based on absolute grading system to
award the grades.

As per the UGC recommendations, the following system will be implemented in awarding the
grades and CGPA.
Letter Grades and Grade Points:
The absolute grading mechanism is followed in mapping the letter grades. The marks are
converted to grades based on pre-determined class interval. As per the UGC recommendations,
a 10-point grading system with the following letter grades is followed. The same is furnished in
the following table for theory courses and laboratory/project/seminar courses.

Theory Courses…..

Academic Performance Letter grade Grade points Performance

90% ≤ Marks ≤ 100% S 10 Outstanding

80% ≤ Marks < 90% A 9 Excellent

70% ≤ Marks < 80% B 8 Very Good
60% ≤ Marks <70% C 7 Good

50% ≤ Marks < 60% D 6 Average

40% ≤ Marks<50% E 5 Pass

0% ≤ Marks < 40% F 0 Fail

Ab 0 Absent

80% ≤ Marks < 90% A 9 Excellent

70% ≤ Marks < 80% B 8 Very Good
60% ≤ Marks <70% C 7 Good

50% ≤ Marks < 60% D 6 Average/Pass

0% ≤ Marks < 50% F 0 Fail

Ab 0 Absent

A student obtaining Grade F shall be considered failed and will be required to reappear for the
examination. For non-credit courses ‘Pass’ or ‘Fail’ shall be indicated instead of the letter grade and
this will not be counted for the computation of SGPA/CGPA. For the non-credit courses, the students
must have secured 'Pass' for the award of degree along with other requirements.

VI. Computation of SGPA and CGPA

The computations of SGPA and CGPA are followed as per the UGC guidelines.
The SGPA is the ratio of sum of the product of the number of credits with the grade points scored by
a student in all the courses taken by a student and the sum of the number of credits of all the courses
undergone by a student, i.e.

SGPA (Si) = Σ(Ci x Gi) / ΣCi

Where Ciis the number of credits of the ith course and Gi is the grade point scored by the student in
the ith course

The CGPA is also calculated in the same manner taking into account all the courses undergone by a
student over all the semesters of a programme, i.e

CGPA = Σ(Ci x Si) / Σ Ci

Where Si is the SGPA of the ith semester and Ciis the total number of credits in that semester.
The SGPA and CGPA shall be rounded off to 2 decimal points and reported in the transcripts.

Grade Sheet: Based on the above guidelines on Letter grades, Grade points and SGPA and CCPA, the
institute issues the grade sheet for each semester and a consolidated grade sheet indicating the
performance in all semesters.

Note: Student has to secure minimum 50% of the marks of the courses having only CIE. If student
fails to secure 50% of marks, then he/she has to re-register for the course in the subsequent semesters
whenever it is offered.

Minimum pass marks for theory course is 40% of total CIE and SEE marks where as for the lab
course/project it is 50%((Attending SEE is mandatory).

For non-credit courses also the minimum pass mark is 40% and the students who secure more than
or equal to 40% of maximum marks will be awarded with 'PASS' otherwise they will be awarded
with ‘FAIL'. The students must have secured with 'PASS' in these non-credit courses for the award
of degree.

VIII. Duration of the Programmes and Credit Requirements for the award of degree

A student is normally expected to complete the B.E. / B.Tech. Programme in eight(8) Semesters
but in any case not more than Twelve(12) semesters. Each semester shall normally consist of
90 teaching days (including examination days). The Head of the Department shall ensure that
every teacher imparts instruction as per the number of hours specified in the syllabus covering
the full content of the syllabus for the course being taught.

A student has to earn the total number of credits specified in the curriculum of the respective

V. Examination, Assessment and Letter Grades/Grade Points
In assessing the performance of the students in examinations, the approach is to
award marks based on the examinations conducted at various stages (CIE and
semester end exam) in a semester. Converting of these marks to letter grades based
on absolute and award the grades. As per the UGC recommendations, the following
system will be implemented in awarding the grades and CGPA.

Letter Grades and Grade Points:

The absolute grading mechanism is followed in mapping the letter grades. The marks
are converted to grades based on pre-determined class interval. As per the UGC
recommendations a 10-point grading system with the following letter grades are
followed. The same is furnished in the following tables for theory courses and
laboratory/project/seminar courses.

A student obtaining Grade F shall be considered failed and will be required to

reappearing the examination. For non-credit courses „Satisfactory‟ or
“Unsatisfactory‟ shall be indicated instead of the letter grade and this will not be
counted for the computation of SGPA/CGPA. For the non-credit courses, the
students must have secured ' Satisfactory' for the award of degree along with other
requirements.

VI. Computation of SGPA and CGPA

The computations of SGPA and CGPA are followed as per the UGC guidelines.

The SGPA is the ratio of sum of the product of the number of credits with the grade
points scored by a student in all the courses taken by a student and the sum of the
number of credits of all the courses undergone by a student, i.e.,
SGPA (Si) = Σ(Ci x Gi) / ΣCi
where Ci is the number of credits of the ith course and Gi is the grade point scored by
the student in the ith course.

The CGPA is also calculated in the same manner taking into account all the courses
undergone by a student over all the semesters of a programme, i.e.
CGPA = Σ(Ci x Si) / Σ Ci
where Si is the SGPA of the ith semester and Ci is the total number of credits in that
semester.

The SGPA and CGPA shall be rounded off to 2 decimal points and reported in the
transcripts.

13
Grade Sheet: Based on the above guidelines on Letter grades, Grade points and
SGPA and CCPA, the institute issues the grade sheet for each semester and a
consolidated grade sheet indicating the performance in all semesters.

VII. Assessment Procedures for Awarding Marks

The distribution of marks is based on CIE by concerned teacher and the Semester
end examination shall be as follows:

Duration of
Course (in Semester end Semester
CIE Remarks

CIE: Continuous Internal Evaluation

* Out of 30/20 sessional marks(CIE), 10/5 marks are allotted for slip-tests (Two
slips tests and two assignments will be conducted, each of 10/5 marks, best three
average is considered) and the remaining 20/15 marks are based on the average
of two tests, weightage for each test is 20/15 marks.

14
** The question paper will be in two parts, Part-A and Part-B. Part A is for Ten(10)
questions and is compulsory, covers the entire syllabus, and carries 20 marks. Part-B
carries 50 marks and covers all the units of the syllabus. Student has to answer five
questions, each question will have internal choice. (The question paper with five
questions is framed from the respective five units).

***The question paper will be in two parts, Part-A and Part-B. Part A is for Ten(10)
questions and is compulsory, covers the entire syllabus, and carries 15 marks. Part-B
carries 35 marks and covers all the units of the syllabus . Student has to answer five
questions and each question will have internal choice. (The question paper with five
questions is framed from the respective five units).

Note: A course that has CIE(sessional marks) but no semester end

examination as per scheme, is treated as Pass/Fail for which pass
marks are 50% of CIE.

A candidate has earned the credits of a particular course, if he/she secures not less
than the minimum marks/ grade as prescribed. Minimum pass marks for theory
course is 40% of total marks i.e., CIE plus semester end examinations where as for
the lab course/project is 50%.

For non-credit courses also the minimum pass mark is 40% and the students who
secures more than are equal to 40% of maximum mark, then the student will be
awarded with 'Satisfactory' otherwise they will be awarded with 'Not-satisfactory'.
The students must have secured with 'Satisfactory' in these non-credit courses for the
award of degree.

VIII. Duration of the programmes and Credit Requirements for the award of
degree
A student is normally expected to complete the B.E. / B.Tech. Programme in
eight(8) Semesters but in any case not more than Twelve(12) semesters. Each
semester shall normally consist of 90 teaching days (including examination days).
The Head of the Department shall ensure that every teacher imparts instruction as
per the number of hours specified in the syllabus covering the full content of the
syllabus for the course being taught.

A student has to earn the total number of credits specified in the curriculum of the
