Message from Director

Dr. H Chaturvedi
Director

Dear Students,

Greetings and Hearty Welcome to the Birla Institute of Management


Technology!

For years BIMTECH has been educating young men and women who entered
its community and attained their transformation into responsible citizens
and leaders of corporates. By joining BIMTECH, you are embarking on an
education system that is meant to be transformative – academically,
socially, and personally. “Excellence and Values” are our guiding principles
which are reflected in every activity of the Institute. Our Handbook clarifies
those values and standards and we expect you to honour them in your
conduct as a student in the College.

Our mission at BIMTECH is to provide a safe, secure environment in which


every student will acquire the skills and knowledge necessary to become
accomplished, productive members of the ever-changing, global
community. Our faculty is a very dedicated group of individuals who
continue to focus on providing the best possible instruction for our
students.

We understand the importance of student’s involvement in their college


activities for greater academic achievement. BIMTECH offers a number of
opportunities for students to get involved outside of the classroom through
sports, clubs, and community service. We would expect that you venture
beyond your “comfort zones” both inside and outside the classroom. Take
maximum advantage of these facilities, participate fully and evolve into a
brand yourself.

Once again, welcome to the BIMTECH family and welcome to our


community of shared principles and values. Wish you happy, healthy, and
fruitful two years ahead.

Best wishes!

Academic Information
Student’s Handbook 2019-20

1. The Prelude
Excellence with Values
This Handbook gives students of BIMTECH guidelines for academic and personal conduct.
The curriculum and other inputs and resources, that the Institute makes available to the
students, aim for an all round growth of future management professionals. Our students
are expected to imbibe value based conduct, emotional stability, maturity of thought,
and spiritual sensitivity. We aim that the students will strive to achieve the objectives of
the Institute, abide by the rules and conduct themselves in such a manner as to bring
laurels for themselves and prestige to the Institute.

The BIMTECH Student's Handbook contains information for students about available
services, administrative policies and procedures, academic regulations, conduct
standards and regulations, and governance structure. The goal of the Handbook is to help
students take advantage of opportunities at BIMTECH.

The Handbook’s rules/guidelines are effective for the 2019-2020 academic year,
beginning June, 2019. Changes could be made in this Student's Handbook by BIMTECH
management whenever necessary, and shall be effective as of the date on which they are
formally notified, or on the date specified in the change.

All students pursuing their studies in BIMTECH will be bound by the policies, procedures,
and academic regulations contained herein, or issued by the competent authority from
time to time.

2. Student Development Goals


BIMTECH aims at the all-round development of students including academic, social, and
personal growth. The Student Development Goals aim at nurturing the students in such a
way that they are equipped to handle the challenges of the increasingly complex world
around them. These goals emphasize the necessity for BIMTECH students to fulfil their
responsibility towards themselves as well as to the society.

3. BIMTECH Honour Code


The Institute aims to create an environment in which students, faculty, staff and
individuals affiliated with the Institute can freely exchange ideas and thoughts, build on
their intellectual curiosity and celebrate diversity.

To create such an atmosphere, members of the community must respect each other and
act responsibly.

(1)
Student’s Handbook 2019-20

A BIMTECH HONOUR CODE has been designed to give a clear direction to the students in
this regard. The Institute expects students to follow this code.

While joining the Institute, in the Orientation Programme, every student will take a
pledge and commit himself/herself to follow the BIMTECH HONOUR CODE in its true
spirit.

Pledge of BIMTECH Honour Code


As a BIMTECHian, I take the pledge that –
• I will strive to act with honesty and integrity.
• I will respect the rights and dignity of all people.
• I will care for others’ safety and will avoid any kind of verbal and physical
violence.
• I will provide truthful information to the Institute about my personal
background.
• I will not fabricate or plagiarize any information with regard to the curriculum.
• I will always act in a lawful manner and not participate in any unlawful activity
such as ragging, indulging in the consumption of intoxicating substances, etc.
• I will not seek, receive, or obtain an unfair advantage over other students.
• I will personally uphold and abide, in theory and practice, the values, purpose,
and rules of the BIMTECH HONOUR CODE.
• I will report all violations of the BIMTECH HONOUR CODE committed by
members of the student community, to the authorities.

Handling Honour Code Violation


Every student is expected to report suspected violation of the Honour Code to the
Discipline Committee. The Committee will then notify the individual charged that a case
of Honour Code violation has been filed and that an investigation will follow.

At this point, the Committee will commence an investigation to determine the existence,
nature, and extent of the alleged violation. The student charged will have an opportunity
to present his/her evidence and case at a date and time determined by the Committee. At
the end of the investigation, the Committee will determine whether the charges should
be dropped, or appropriate disciplinary action should be declared.

5. Relevance of Accreditation
Accreditation is the process by which the competency of an educational body is certified.
It is strongly linked to the quality status of an institution. The higher education institutes
adhere to the quality standards set by the accreditation bodies to delivery high quality
education and support facilities to the students.

There are two accreditation bodies nationally i.e. National Board of Accreditation (NBA)
and National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC); and there are many
international bodies i.e. Association to Advance collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB)
based at Florida, USA, Association of MBAs (AMBA) at London, UK, European Quality
Improvement System (EQUIS) based at Brussels, Belgium.

Accreditation of the institutions by these bodies focus on promoting and recognizing the
institutions and universities offering technical education in terms of their superiority. The
benefits of the accreditation are transferred not just to the institutions but also to the
students, prospective employers and even the society who are also the key stakeholders.
An obvious advantage is the continuous improvement in terms of quality wherein the

(4)
Student’s Handbook 2019-20

approach is developmental in terms of promoting excellence in higher education. In brief,


the aim of the accreditation is to establish that students are learning contemporary and
relevant material to their field of study which will enable them to become successful
leaders after graduating. It involves measuring the goals and objectives of program in
order to develop an assurance of learning, which is central to the accreditation
particularly AACSB. This helps the institute to benchmark itself with the schools across
the globe and therefore the process is extensive and stringent.

We are very proud of the fact that all our Postgraduate Programmes, namely: PGDM,
PGDM (IB), PGDM (IBM) and PGDM (RM) have been granted accreditation by NBA for
maximum period of time that an accreditation body offers. BIMTECH has also completed
its first cycle of NAAC accreditation and we are proud to have met the challenge by
achieving A+ grade. We intend to consistently uphold the principles of quality
management education and student engagement in future. In addition, the institute is in
process of international accreditation through AACSB and has accomplished few
milestones. The college aspires to achieve AACSB accreditation soon.

8. Examinations
a. Assessment Method
1. The Institute follows a well-structured evaluation system for assessing the
performance of the students. Based on the registration of papers by students with
the consent of Chairperson, the student will be assessed as follows:
• Continuous Assessment: Students' performance is evaluated continuously
throughout the trimester by way of his/ her performance in the classroom
discussion, case studies, project work, presentation, assignment, quizzes, mid-
term examination, on-line tests, etc. Fifty percent weightage is given to this
assessment. Internal marks/attendance are communicated to students prior to
end term examinations by the faculty concerned.
• End Term Examination: The end term examination is conducted in each
paper/subject to assess the analytical and conceptual comprehension of the
students through essay type questions and the skill to use the knowledge through
case and/or problem solving exercises. Out of total, Fifty percent weightage is
given to this assessment. End term are usually not conducted in subjects with 2
credits or less.
2. The End Term Examination is usually of 2 hours 30 minutes duration, but for some
subjects it may be of shorter duration. Those with shorter duration will be intimated
to the students well in advance at the time of release of date-sheets for the
examinations. The standard question pattern for the end-term examination is as
follows (there could be changes in exceptional cases with approval of Dean
Academics):
• Group A: to attempt three questions out of five of five marks each.
• Group B: to attempt two questions out of three of ten marks each.
• Group C: Compulsory Case Study of fifteen marks.
3. The Institute follows a system of Relative Grading for assessment of students’
performance.
The following table depicts the letter grade on a ten point scale:
Description Grade Grade Point
Excellent A+ 10
A 9
A- 8
Good B+ 7
B 6
B- 5
Satisfactory C+ 4
C 3
C- 2
Poor D 1
Fail F 0
Incomplete I –
(14)
Student’s Handbook 2019-20

4. Each subject carries a certain number of Credits. The credits for each subject will be
intimated by respective course coordinators/ faculty.
5. Based on the credits for each subject and grade point obtained by the student for
each subject, a trimester wise TGPA will be calculated as follows:
TGPA = Σ (Credit i x Grade point i)/ Σ Credit i
6. After each trimester, a cumulative grade point average (CGPA) can calculated as
follows:
CGPA = Σ (TGPA i x TCi)/Σ TCi
Where TCi is the total of all credits of trimesters considered..
7. The student must satisfy the following conditions: at the end of the third term of the
first year to be eligible for promotion to the second year:
• A minimum CGPA of 5.0
• Not more than 4 Ds or 2 Fs (1 F = 2 Ds).
• At the end of first year of the 2 year program if the student does not meet passing
criteria (viz. minimum CGPA of 5 and not more than 2 Fs) Dean Academics on the
recommendations of the Chairperson may grant approval for special exam(s) to
be conducted for the student in the fail subjects. This would however be a last
chance and no revaluation, supplementary or improvement would be permitted
thereafter. These exams would be held and evaluated before the start of the next
academic year.
• If the student does not achieve passing criteria he/she would have to leave the
course. He/she can apply for the readmission with the new batch in the next
academic year. His/her candidature will depend upon the availability of the seat
and other considerations at the discretion of the management. If admitted, the
student will have to pay full tuition/hostel/mess fees and other charges, as
applicable. He/she would then only be able to complete diploma requirements by
the end of 3 years.
• The minimum criteria of 40% marks would be considered the base passing
condition for relative grading (RG) and the same condition has to be separately
satisfied both for Internal and End-Term evaluation. Less than 40% in either
internal or end-term exams would result in a Fail grade and the student would
need to appear in a supplementary in the subject.
• Supplementary Examination
Student will be eligible for supplementary examination in case he/she gets D or F
grade in a subject. The marks in all supplementary examinations will be out of 100
and internal marks would lapse. There will be no ‘re-supplementary’
examinations. Students not achieving passing CGPA of 5.0 or having more than 2
Fs (or equivalent Ds as per prevailing rules) at the end of each trimester will get an
opportunity of achieving passing grades by taking supplementary /improvement
exam but not both in a subject viz. No improvement would be allowed in a subject
after supplementary exam.

(15)
Student’s Handbook 2019-20

• Improvement Examination
A student will be eligible to appear in improvement examination at the end of
each term for the subjects of the previous term in case CGPA at the end of the term
was less than 5.0. This will be in subjects of their choice where they have C+, C or
C- grades (this would lapse if not availed of)In the case of D or an F grade the rule
of supplementary exam will apply. The fees in case of improvement exam will be
same as supplementary exam fees. No re-improvement exam will be permitted. In
case of improvement exam if there was a reduction in overall marks the previous
marks would apply.
• Outward Exchange Student (Usually deputed in Trimester-3)
Students can opt for a term of study in one of the partner Institutes of BIMTECH
abroad. All grades earned in the foreign university would be converted into
BIMTECH grades as per policy which will be advised to exchange students before
they opt for the foreign university. Issues regarding supplementary (resets) for
exchange students would be handled as per rules of the foreign university. The
Trimester-2 supplementary exam for Exchange students would, as per current
practice, be conducted on their return from abroad.

8. For award of Diploma, a student must satisfy the following conditions:


• The student must have a minimum CGPA of 5.0 in the programme.
• Not more than 5 Ds or equivalent. (1F=2D)
• No ‘I’ grade in any course/projects.

9. Course of Independent study (CIS)


This is a provision for a last chance for students who at the end of 2 years are not
meeting above passing criterion. Students who are not eligible for diploma may
request the concerned Chair-person for permission to opt for CIS in failed subjects.
CIS would be considered for students based on recommendations of the respective
Chairperson to Dean Academics for sanction. The student would take up CIS in the
Fail subjects in the ensuing Academic year and complete the CIS in the first 2
trimesters of the next Academic year.. The student would be charged a fee of
Rs. 15000 per subject per term and exam fees of Rs. 2000 per paper. No revaluation /
supplementary / improvement would be allowed in the subjects after the student
appears in the end term paper for the subject(s) and the results of the evaluation
would be final. The student would have to ensure that he/she achieves the passing
criterion at the end of CIS. In one term the student would have 10 one hour weekly
interactions/ term with the faculty teaching the subject. Marks for CIS papers would
be out of 100.

b. Revaluation Process / Procedure


A student can apply for revaluation of his/her paper after announcement of result.
The paper will be sent for revaluation to an alternate faculty as per revaluation
process thereby ensuring independent evaluation. The student has to deposit a fee

(16)
Student’s Handbook 2019-20

of Rs. 2000 per paper. The student if he/she so desires can view his/her answer book
but no further correspondence in regard to valuation will be entertained. End term
marks after revaluation would be final. The internal marks will be carried forward.
All charges for supplementary, improvement and revaluation are non-refundable.
All marks get converted to grades after RG. All results are declared in grades
awarded.

c. Academic Integrity
Academic Integrity is about honest presentation of your academic work. It means
acknowledging the work of others whilst developing your own insights, knowledge
and ideas. Academic work in an institute depends on the practice of academic
integrity as a core value. It is an important part of academic life for both staff as well
as the students and is also essential to all academic thought and practice. All work
produced must acknowledge the sources of ideas presented and cite the original
written work.

d. Avoiding Plagiarism
In preparing assignments students will need to do independent work. If any ideas of
others are used they should be acknowledged and should not infringe copyrights.
Students are encouraged to read widely and acknowledge any ideas that are not
their own by including citations in a list at the end of every assignment. It is the
responsibility of every student to know how to reference correctly. The Harvard
Referencing System or other referencing systems need to be used in research papers
and assignments.

e. Penalties for Plagiarism


Penalties for plagiarism can be severe depending on the nature of offences. If a
student has been charged with academic misconduct for plagiarism, he/she may
have to attend a hearing to defend or explain actions. If found guilty the student
could get zero for the assignment and/ or be given a more severe penalty.

f. Penalty and Reward for Class/Physical Attendance


Students with less than 70% attendance will not be permitted to appear in the end

10. Policy and Rules for Final Placement and


Summer Training/Summer Internship
a. Placement Assistance
1. Support for Final Placement and Summer Internship is provided by the Institute to
students. This activity is done under the aegis of the Centre for Corporate Relations
(CCR). Periodically, students are be advised, through the students groups’ mail ID as
well as through the CCR notice board, about summer/ final placement opportunities.
Students are advised to be on the lookout for relevant information either about
summer internships or final placement.
2. Students should be aware that actual placements would depend upon the general
economic and industry scenario, the academic and non-academic competencies
including good communication and soft skills developed by each student, cultural
and medical fitness of each student, as determined by the recruiters.
3. While every effort will be made to enable each student to compete effectively for
positions offered by companies, the actual conversion of the opportunity into a
concrete placement is the sole responsibility of the student. The institute, therefore,
does not guarantee that a particular student shall be placed for final or summer
internship irrespective of the student’s performance parameters.
• Students should study the job description (JD) conveyed by companies
thoroughly and prepare accordingly.
• Students should report in the classroom 15 minutes before scheduled time as &
when notified by CCR for interactive sessions with the recruiters.
4. The major components of the placement (summer or final) process are
written/online test, group discussion, personal interview, personality profiling etc.
Apart from thorough domain knowledge, recruiters expect students to be totally
updated on current national, economic and political world developments, especially
those affecting the economy and the impact of such events on the industry or
business for which the recruitment is taking place (the ability to connect the dots).
The recruiter expects to see depth of understanding, analytical skills and originality
in student’s responses, whether it be group discussion or personal interview. Another
important quality that a student should develop is up-to-date general awareness and
the ability to connect the dots i.e. the ability to connect recent events / changes to
the relevant industry or company. Needless to add that a good CGPA and proficiency
in some extracurricular activities and participation in corporate sponsered
competions will be very valuable add-ons for the student. Students should try to
upgrade themselves through extensive reading, especially financial and general
newspapers besides studying course curriculum and last but not the least, by

(26)
Student’s Handbook 2019-20

regularly attending the class lectures, guest lectures, workshops and seminars
organized by BIMTECH to provide value to future employers. The student would also
be well advised to take advantage of free online extra certifications from Coursera,
edX, etc to strengthen their CVs.
5. Please remember that companies are looking for proactive, energetic, diligent, well
rounded personalities who have indisputable integrity with high energy. The
recruiter also needs to sense the “hunger” for the job on offer from the candidate
through the body language and attitude.
6. BIMTECH will encourage and assist all students to emerge as credible brands in their
own right, who are sought after by the corporates.

b. Policy, Rules and Code of Conduct


1. Transparency, fairness and equal opportunity for all students (subject to the specific
requirements of the recruiter) is the policy of BIMTECH and are the hallmarks of the
placement process at BIMTECH.
2. Whenever a company proposes a visit to the BIMTECH campus, CCR sends a e-mail
confirming the date of process, as well as display it on the notice board with the
details related to JD /written test/GD/interview. Students then give their names to
CCR for attending.
3. Once a student gets shortlisted by the corporate for their recruitment process of GD,
Written Test etc, he/ she cannot, on any account, withdraw from the process of that
Company. Violators may have to pay fine and /or face debarment from any
subsequent placement process. Hence prior to expressing interest, student should
make his/her mind.
4. It will be the responsibility of the students to be extra careful in maintaining the basic
decorum, discipline and decency at the time when the company representatives are
on the campus for placement-related activities or when they participate in the
processes at the Company’s premises. Any student found willfully violating these
instructions will be liable for punitive measures.
5. Students found improperly dressed or groomed during the campus selection process
for final or summer internship may be disallowed from participating in placement
process.
6. Once a student is selected by the campus process for final or summer placement,
he/she cannot avail of any more placement opportunities through the campus
process subsequently. Violation of the principle will be considered a breach of
regulation and will invite disciplinary action as determined by the Chairperson, CCR
Department.

(27)
Student’s Handbook 2019-20

7. All communication with the recruiters will be done by the CCR office. Students are
not allowed to directly communicate with the recruiters.
8. Students appearing for placement are expected to report on time for the process and
come well prepared by going through relevant literature such as the company
website, company’s publicity material etc. They should be well groomed in formals,
which would be:
• For Gentlemen: Shaven/full beard, neat and ironed clothes, well- groomed
appearance. Full sleeves shirt and formal pants (Jeans & Khaki not allowed),
leather shoes and a tie.
• For Ladies: Neat and ironed clothes, well-groomed appearance. Sari/business
suit/salwar-kameez, leather sandals /shoes.
9. Not more than seven attempts can be availed of by any student for the final
placement process.
10. To facilitate placement, every student should achieve minium 6.2 CGPA i.e. 60%.
11. Requirements of the company will be taken care of by the concerned members of the
placement/hospitality group while they are at BIMTECH premises (or at long
distance) and any kind of communication to be sent to the company has to be
directed through CCR only.
12. Students are advised not to do anything directly or indirectly which may create a
poor impression about the institute. Any student found disregarding any of the
norms would be liable for disciplinary action.
13. Non-compliance by students of any activity organized by the Institute in the interest
of placements will be considered as an act of misconduct. Students found involved in
such activities may be debarred from placement assistance. The decision of the CCR
will be final in this regard.
14. Students are advised to abide by the final short-listing done by the company
according to their requirements and criteria which shall not be called into question
by any student either individually or by raising questions about this in the Pre-
Placement Talk (PPT). Violation of this rule will lead to the debarment of the student
from the process. The PPT queries from students should be aimed at clarifying job
profile, compensation, etc.
15. The institute follows “one student one offer” policy. In case of multiple processes
and offers, the institute will approve the offer which arrives first. Students who have
appeared in multiple processes will have to accept the offer which is conveyed to
them first by CCR. This stipulation is applicable for Final Placement as well as
Summer Internship. Students found violating this rule will face disciplinary action as
determined by the Chairperson, CCR Department.

(28)
Student’s Handbook 2019-20

16. Recruiters frequent visit to BIMTECH Campus is because of their faith that students
once selected (after the student agrees to the selection by accepting the offer at the
end of the process) will take up the assignment on the stipulated date. Hence,
students are obliged to act as per their commitment to take up the position for which
they have been selected for. This provision is applicable for Final Placement as well
as Summer Internship. If a student violates this principle, he/she will have to face
appropriate disciplinary action, as decided by the Chairperson, CCR Department.
17. CCR reserves the right to modify or introduce new rules, as and when required, such
as granting ‘day zero’ or ‘dream company’ status to companies, if circumstances
warrant.
18. The Institute allows two years of deferred placement for students who are serious
about starting their own ventures. Under the Deferred Placement Policy a student
who does not opt for placement initially and opts for an entrepreneurial venture, has
the option of joining the stream of BIMTECH students for placement two years later if
she/he so desires subsequently. The Scheme will be administered jointly by the Atal
Incubation Centre (AIC) and the Centre for Corporate Relations (CCR) on a case by
case basis on merits. For more details on the process and procedure, please contact
the Atal Incubation Centre.

c. Summer Internship

1. Objective of Summer Internship: Internships are important to enhancing


credentials, testing new situations and positioning MBAs for the next step. With
persistence, passion and creativity, a summer internship is within reach. It offers
important opportunity to work closely with professionals in your field and to
develop knowledge, competencies, and experience related directly to your career
goals.
Recruiters attach great significance to the Summer Internship Project report in the
final placement interview and in depth questions on it can be expected. Hence, the
Project Report should be perceived as an important course which signals a student’s
potential to the recruiters. BIMTECH expects every student to take this activity
seriously and turn it in an excellent deliverables at the end of his/her internship in
terms of a project report / credentials, knowledge, competencies & experience.
2. Summer Internship Workshop: An interactive workshop to set the tone will be held
in the campus usually in the month of March to give detailed guidelines and a
roadmap to students on the nitty gritty of summer projects, the do’s and don'ts etc.
Students will also have occasion to interact with executives from corporates/
alumni & seniors in the workshop. They will be informed as to what is expected of
them during their internship, the needs of the industry etc. Resource Book will be
compulsory in all the sessions of workshops. Those found absent will face the
penalty of deduction of marks per session from the total SIP marks.

(29)
Student’s Handbook 2019-20

3. Duration: The duration of the Summer Internship project for all the streams (PGDM,
IB, IBM and RM) will be three months, normally between April to June. The projects
will carry 9 credit points. After completion of Summer Internship, students will
undergo Summer Internship Viva Voce, as intimated by CCR.
4. Entrepreneurial Internship Program (EIP): Through the Entrepreneur Internship
Program (EIP), first year students can participate in internships wherein during the
10-12 week program, interns will find themselves writing a business plan, presenting
to investors and/or customers, performing a market survey, identifying alternative
distribution channels, exploring alternative financing structures, or improving
information systems. The EIP will be in lieu of the SIP with the differences being;
• Only a very limited number of the first year students will be selected to be part
of this program through a competitive application process.
• The students will work on their idea/concept under the supervision of an
internal faculty (and if possible, an external mentor) and will try to create a
‘proof of concept’/ prototype /ready to market product during their summer
internship.
Otherwise, the EIP will follow the guidelines similar to the summer internship
wherein students appear for the viva and receive credit.
5. Object Company: Students should aim at working with companies, institutions or
start-ups that provide challenging learning opportunities rather than making their
decision on the basis of hometown convenience or stipend.
6. Faculty Allocation, Reporting & Supervision
• Prior to finalization of a faculty as the academic mentor, students should submit an
application to the faculty they would like to choose as a mentor, stating the
proposed area of research, intent and objective of the summer project. The academic
mentor would give approval for being the mentor if he/she is satisfied with the
student’s submission after assessing the potential learning opportunity and
commitment of the student. Students should give their applications well in time so
that the mentor has adequate opportunity to go through it.
• Students are free to choose any faculty from the domain area of the project from
amongst the BIMTECH faculty as their academic guide/mentor.
• Not more than 12 students can register under any one faculty as a mentor for
summer internship. The basis of selection will be ‘first come, first served’. Students
can check the list of available faculty and vacant seats under each faculty on daily
basis.
• The internee shall arrange for a telephonic conversation between the industry
mentor and the academic mentor before finalization of the project topic / title of the
project. The concurrence of the both mentors is a must.

(30)
Student’s Handbook 2019-20

• The internee shall submit a fortnightly report on the progress of work relating to
internship to the academic mentor, failing which the academic mentor can deduct
marks for not meeting the timelines.
• The academic mentor would be making at least one visit to the workplace of the
student for a meeting with the industry mentor to review the progress made by the
