Grading & Evaluation

An absolute grading system based on Grade Point Average (GPA) on a scale of 4.0 is followed giving letter grades from “A” to “D” and corresponding grade points. The letter “F” is to be used to indicate the failure status of the course.

The following Grading Scheme is used for the overall evaluation and assessment of the students:

Student assessment and evaluation are based on the use of the following techniques for Theory Courses with distributions of marks as mentioned against each:

• Midterm Examination (1.5 to 2 hours) 30%
• Quizzes / Assignments / Mini projects / Presentations etc. 30%
• Final Semester Examination (2.5 to 3 hours) 40%
  
  

In case the Course Instructor / Chairperson feels that the course objective can better be achieved by using the flexible scheme of distribution of marks for the assessment of the students, the table given below provides the choices to select the suitable combination for assessment of the student(s). This option is also available for the courses having Lab as a composite part of the Theory Course. However, the Chairperson of the Department is to define the distribution of marks from the table below at the time of offering the course at the beginning of the semester and will intimate the same to the Examinations Department as well.

Lab courses which generally involve practical work in the Labs will be assessed by the concerned teacher throughout the semester under the supervision of the respective Chairperson and Dean. Flexibility will be given to the Department for the distribution of marks to assess the student’s practical work and viva voce. However, as a guideline following distribution of marks may be followed:

• Practical Work 75%
• Viva Voce 25%
  
  

The grade of the student will be based on the combined result of the Theory and Lab segment. In case a student fails in any one segment of such course (Theory or Lab), he/she will be declared “Fail” and a grade will only be awarded once he/she passes separately in Theory and Lab segment. However, he/she will be required to re-appear and pass the failed segment of the course only.

In case of re-appearing of any segment (Theory or Lab) of the course within the authorized attempts, attendance in the class will not be mandatory for the student, however, the student is to appear in all the Examinations of that course (Theory or Lab) including quizzes and assignment. Moreover, it will be the responsibility of the student to keep him/herself abreast of the schedule of such examinations.

Final Year Projects and Courses of similar nature as defined by the Faculties and Departments will not be assessed in accordance with the above-mentioned methods. The grading of such courses along with the marks obtained by the student will be provided to the Exam Department by the concerned Department at the end of the Semester.

Midterm Examination and Final Semester Examination are to be conducted centrally by the Examination Department in coordination with Teaching Departments and Administration.

Rechecking of Paper

A recheck will be carried out by the committee after the submission of the prescribed fee. Request for rechecking must reach the ACOE within 7 days after the declaration of the result. Each department shall constitute a committee of three senior teachers of the department of which the Chairman/ Director shall be the convener, for hearing appeals of students who may have a grievance concerning their grades. In case the concerned teacher is Chairman, then the Dean of the respective faculty shall act as convener of the committee. In case the concerned teacher is the Dean, then the Chairman / Director or senior most teacher(s) shall act as convener of the committee.

If a student fails or misses examinations, s/he will be allowed to re-appear in next year’s session exam, subject to if s/he has completed 75% attendance in that subject and has obtained prior permission for the examination from the teachers concerned. The make-up test will be allowed to those students only who have missed a single examination due to justified reasons. The decision to allow students in the makeup test for the mid or final term will be made by the teacher concerned with producing satisfactory justification by the student. No student can claim the right to appear in both mid and final-term examinations.

Failed students and those who want to clear their failed subjects must reappear in all examinations (Mid Term, Final and Practical) of a subject with the next session. They will have to submit the examination form along with a receipt of the makeup fee. The students having less than 2.0 CGPA will be given one chance to repeat only three subjects having a ‘C’ grade to improve his/her CGPA to a minimum of 2.0 with the next year’s class within the maximum duration of the degree program. They will have to submit the examination form as per the procedure.
