grade points average maintained by him/her. Also a minimum numberof
credits should be acquired for successful completion of a module.
The grades awarded are based onfixed ranges of marks.
The performance of the students is evaluated in terms of two
indices, viz. Semester Grade PointAverage (SGPA) and Cumulative
Grade Point Average (CGPA). The Grade Point Average iscomputed as
under:
SGPA=
Where n is the number of subjects registered for the semester,
Ci is the number of credits allottedto a particular subject, and Pi
is the grade points carried by the letter corresponding to the
gradeawarded to the student for the subject.
The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is computed
likewise.
CGPA=
Where m is the total number of subjects the student has
registered from the first semester onwardsup to and including the
semester, Cj is the number of credits allotted to a particular
subject Cj and Pj is the grade point carried by the letter
corresponding to the grade awarded to the student for the subjectCj
.
-
1. CONVERSION FORMULA
To assess the average performance of a student in a semester,
the following conversion formula maybe adopted. % Marks = GPA x 10
Likewise, the average performance in the semester may be computedby
using CGPA.
2. GRADE POINTS
Grade Grade Point Range of Marks (%) Description of
Performance
A+ 10 90-100 Outstanding
A 9 80-89 Excellent
B+ 8 70-79 Good

teacher/co-ordination committee formed for this purpose.For
arriving at a grade obtained by a student for a particular subject,
initially a numeric marks obtained bythe student out of 100
(hundred) is to be determined. Once the numeric mark is obtained,
the same is to beconverted to letter grade following the guidelines
given in Annexure D.For subject in which the theory component is
greater than 1 (one), the subcomponents and the respectiveweights
assigned to these are given below.
-
Subcomponent Weight
Teachers Assessment (T.A.) 20%
Mid-Semester Examination 30%
End-Semester Examination 50%
For assigning marks in Teachers Assessment (T.A.) performance in
home assignments, class-tests, tutorials, viva-voce, attendance
etc., are to be considered. At least two class tests are to
beconducted for a subject. The weights of different sub-components
of T.A. are to be announced by theteacher at the beginning of the
Semester.
For subjects in which the theory component is 1 (one), there
would be no Mid-Semester or End-SemesterExaminations. The marks of
the theory component would be decided by performance in

For assigning marks in the laboratory component (p-component)
the relevant sub-components that are tobe considered are day-to-day
work, regularity, tests (at least two must be conducted),
assignments, viva-voce etc. Percentage weights of the different
sub-components in deciding the final marks are to beannounced at
the beginning of the Semester.The eight-week industrial training
undergone by the students in the summer vacation after the

commencement of the seventh semester. Thestudents are required to
submit a written report on the training received and give a
seminar, on the basis ofwhich a grade would be awarded.The students

16. Assessment of Project Work
Performance in the various activities involved in the project
would be assessed individually at the end ofeach semester in which
it is being carried out as per the curriculum. The student is
required to submit awritten report at the end of the semester. The
Head of the Department would appoint a project evaluationboard for
the purpose of assessment.The different components of evaluation
and the weights assigned to these components are depicted
below:
-
Subcomponent Weight
Supervisors assessment 40%
Project Report/Thesis (to be assessed by theboard)
20%
Evaluation Boards assessment 40%
The student is required to give a seminar on the project work
done. The evaluation board would conductthe viva-voce. Dates for
conducting the seminar and the viva-voce, to be held within ten
days after theend-semester examination, would be announced in the
academic calendar.If a student cannot clear the project for the 7th
semester, he/she can clear the same along with 8th semesterproject.
In such case, he/she will get one grade less than actually obtained
in the evaluation of projectpart I (7th semester component). In
case of non-completion of 8th semester project in scheduled time,
anextension of 2 months will be given and the student will get one
grade less than that actually obtained inthe evaluation of the
project part II (8th semester component).The Head of the Department
would constitute the Viva-Voce Board(s) for conducting
thecomprehensive viva-voce examination as per the requirement of
the curriculum. The Board would decidethe relative weights of the
different aspects of the viva-voce and decide the grades to be
awarded to thestudents. The dates of the viva-voce, to be conducted

Summer Quarter will be conducted during the immediately following
summer vacation for makingup their deficiency and improve the
performance.
In order to provide an additional opportunity to the students
who failed (obtained an F grade) in one ormore subjects, due to not
being able to score higher than the cut-off marks in the theory
components, ineither the odd and/or the even semester in a year,
