tests for theory courses, dates by which laboratory/practical
evaluations are to be completed, date for finalization of internal
marks, last instruction day in the semester, planned schedule of end
semester examinations and result declaration as well as approved
holidays falling within the semester. Schedules for the supplementary
examinations and result declaration dates are to be included in the

c. Branches of B. Tech. Programmes.
The Branches of B. Tech. /B. Tech. (Honours) programme offered
by the University are listed separately at the end of this Ordinance
d. B. Tech. Programme Structure
Students should have 75% attendance in the summer course to write the
examination.
For the final grading their internal evaluation marks obtained in the
regularsemester in which they had undergone the course shall be
applicable. Summer courses are to be conducted for a minimum of 20
contact hours for each course. Summer courses are to be offered only at
the end of the second and fourth semesters for the courses covered till
that semester. They will be conducted either by all colleges or only by
some, depending on the number of students registering for them. Details
of summer courses planned will be announced by the colleges after the
declaration of the even semester results. Final examination for summer
courses will be conducted by the University. Based on the availability of
faculty and the number of students opting for courses, it will be the
prerogative of the colleges to decide on the summer courses to be offered.
Options for the fifth and higher semesters
For higher semesters, i.e., fifth semester onwards, summer courses are
not offered. Failed students who have less than 45% marks in internal
assessments have to register again for the course in the regular semester
in which it is offered and complete the course as per the regulations and
appear for the end semester examination. Failed students having 45%
marks or more in internal assessments have the option to register again
for the course as mentioned above or register only for the end semester
examination without attending the course again. A separate registration
format will be available for this. This option is available in all semesters.
The summer courses shall be considered as independent course and
students have to register for this course. This provision of summer courses
may be extended to students who have got FE grade due to (i) shortage
of attendance (ie. having attendance less than 75%) and (ii) shortage of
internal evaluation marks (ie. having IA marks less than 45%) with the
following conditions.
(i) The students shall have minimum 50% attendance in the specified
course of the regular semester. They have to register for the summer
course and obtain 75% attendance.
(ii) The students shall have a minimum 35% IA marks in the regular

improve the IA marks by writing one IA make up test during the
summer course. This will replace the lower of the two marks got in
the regular semester. However the IA marks shall be limited to 50%.
k) Contact Courses
If a student has to earn credits only just for one course to qualify for the
degree after completing eight semesters of study, the college concerned
may offer a contact course on a written request by the student. The contact
course is considered as fresh registration and is to be offered by the teacher
concerned who shall conduct the internal evaluation procedures and allot
the marks as per the regulations. Minimum contact hours for the course
shall be 20. The final examination will be conducted by the college and
shall be monitored by the external academic auditor. Question paper for
the examination will be given by the Controller of Examination. No grade
above C shall be given for a contact course.
l) Academic Assessment/Evaluation
Academic Evaluation of Courses
University follows a continuous academic evaluation procedure.
Academic evaluation procedure and corresponding weights are as follows:-
a). For theory courses: -Normally 1/3rd weightage for internal evaluationand
2/3rd for end semester examination.
For convenience, the maximum marks for internal evaluation and
endsemester examination for theory courses are fixed as 50 and 100re-
spectively unless otherwise specified through internal circulars for any
particularexamination.
Scheme of evaluation is as follows.
i) Two internal tests each of 20 marks and of one hour duration. (Internally
by the College)
ii) Tutorials/Assignments/Mini Projects carrying 10 marks. (Internally by
the College)
iii) End Semester examination carrying 100 marks. (Conducted by the
University)
All the above evaluations are mandatory requirements to earn credits.
Students who have missed either the first or the second test can register
with the consent of the faculty and the Head of the Department (HOD)
concerned for a retest which shall be conducted soon after the completion
of the second test, but before the end semester examination. The re-test
will cover both first and second test course plans. Those who have missed
both the tests are not eligible to appear for the end semester examination.
However if one misses both tests due to medical reasons or other personal
exigencies, based on genuine evidence, a single test of 2 hour duration
for 40 marks will be conducted covering the whole syllabus, before the
end semester examinations. Decision on this will be taken by the Principal
and verified by the external academic auditor.

Addendum:-
1. Calculation of SGPA/CGPA
Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) and Cumulative Grade Point
Average (CGPA) are calculated as follows.
SGPA = S(Ci×GPi)/SCi where Ci is the credit assigned for a course and
GPi is the grade point for that course. Summation is done for all courses
registered by the student in the semester. Here the failed courses are also
accounted.
CGPA = S(Ci×GPi)/SCi where Ci is the credit assigned for a course and
GPi is the grade point for that course. Summation is done for all courses
registered by the student during all the semesters for which the CGPA is
needed. Here the failed courses are also accounted. CGPA of all courses
passed may also be given.
