(ii) Semester System and Semester Rules:
A semester consists of 17 weeks, a minimum of 90 working days. There is a continuous assessment of students performance all along the semester. At the end of a semester an examination is held where evaluation is done by external examiners. The reports indicating the performance of the students, based on various tests and examinations, are prepared by the Controller of Examination office and sent to students/parents and Dean / Principal at the end of the semester.
The academic year will be divided into two regular semesters of 17 weeks each. The academic calendar for each academic year shall be issued by the Registrar’s office by the end of the second semesterof the previous year.
In addition to the two regular semesters in a year there will be one condensed semester of about 8-10 weeks called “Summer Semester”. It can have credit as well as non credit courses.
°’ The summer session will be utilized for:- a) Introduction of new enrichment programmes.
b) Dual Degree programmes.
c) Professional development of in service faculty.
d) Offering of additional and condensed new courses.
The teaching load of a course offered in the summer session will be equivalent to that of a full semester one.

evaluation will include two tests in theory and one in practical for every course. The final examination of the semester will be external and’ conducted by the University. It will cover the entire subject matterof the — course.
The same system of examination will be followed for summer semester except that instead of two midterm tests for theory, only one test will be conducted for internal evaluation.
11. Grading System & Assessment of Performance 1) GRADING SYSTEM - (a) As a measure of students’ performance a grading system given in Table 1 shall be followed.
TABLE - | Letter grades and corresponding performance, grade point and marks. Column lV, Marks, is only for cases where excessive bunching occurs.
iPag10 11 for Theory and 50 for Laboratory/Practical In addition there shall be three other grades, X for project not completed, S for Satisfactory and U for Unsatisfactory Performance in ESS, Yoga, Educational Tour, Training etc. S and U grades are not given grade points and are not included in SGPA/CGPA.
(b) A semester grade point average (SGPA) and a cumulative grade point average (CGPA) will be evaluated. SGPA is for first semester and CGPA for all the semesters since the start of the programme up to and including the last semester.
SGPA or CGPA=3.C,G,/5G Where CG;
denotes credit(s) assigned to the jth course taken and G; indicates the grade point equivalent to the letter grade obtained in the jth course.
Both SGPA and CGPA will be rounded off to the second place of decimal.
(c) When a student gets the grade F in any subject during a semester, the SGPA and CGPA from that semester onwards will be tentatively calculated, taking only ‘zero point’ for each such F grade. After the F grade(s) has/have been substituted by better grades during a subsequent semester,theSGPA and the CGPA of all the semesters, starting from the earliest semester in which the F grade has been updated, will be recomputed and recorded to take the change of grade in to account.

(d) For converting grade point averages in to per cent marks, SGPA/CGPA is to be multiplied with 10.
(11) ASSESSMENT OF PERFORMANCE
(a) There will be continuous assessment of a student’s performance throughout the semester and grades will be awarded by the subject teacher/University Examination Result Committee(s)-UERC formed for this purpose by the Vice Chancellor. |
(b) (i) For arriving at a grade obtained by a student for a particular subject/paper, initially a numeric mark obtained by the student out of 100 (hundred) is to be determined. For subjects where the Laboratory Component is non zero, separate marks, each out of 100(hundred), in the Theory Component and the Laboratory Component are to be ascertained first. A composite mark for the subject out of 100 is then to be computed by taking appropriate contribution of Theory Component and the Laboratory Component.
(ii)Once the numeric mark is obtained, the same is to be converted intoa letter grade.
|
(iii)In theory course for assigning marks in Teacher/Internal Assessnient, performance in home assignments, class tests, tutorials, viva-voce, attendance etc. are to be considered. At least two class tests are to be conducted for a subject. The weights of different sub-components of this assessment are to be announced by the teacher at the beginning of the semester.
(iv) In a laboratory course or part of a course for assigning marks, the relevant sub-components that are to be considered are day-do-day work, regularity, tests, assignments, viva-voce etc.
(c) In general there shall be no rigid marks —to-grade linkage. Difficulty levels of the examinations, tests, assignments, viva-voce and other factors that contribute to the final marks are to be considered by the teacher of a subject /UERC while converting marks into letter grades.
12) Page
(d) 13 _ (i) The grades F and A’are to be considered as bench mark grades.
(ii) For subjects which have a Laboratory Component, to secure any grade higher than F a student has to achieve individually more than the cutoff marks in both the Theory Component and the Laboratory Component alone.
(iii) The cutoff mark below which a student would be assigned F grade is 40 for the theory and 50 for the laboratory, the exact cutoff marks are to be decided by the teacher/UERC.
(iv) The exceptionally brilliant performance is to be assigned an A’ grade.
Even the best student of any class needs to be good enough to be awarded the A‘ grade.
(v) The average performance (around mean value of marks) is to be assigned B grade. However, if by teacher/UERC perception the general level of the class is considered to be appreciably higher, the average:
performance maybe assigned a higher grade.
|
(vi) All other marks to grade conversions are to be done relatively with respect to the average performance in between (but excluding) the.F and A’ grade, which have already been assigned by choosing appropriate boundary marks. between grades.
(e) In the case where a student appears in the supplementary examination or attends summer quarter, the conversion from marks to grade would be done applying the same norm as was framed for the original class.
(f) For classes where excessive bunching occurs resulting in almost all the marks tending to cluster in to same category, conversion from marks to grade may be done using the data given in Table !. However, the teacher/UERC may, on the basis of perception of the difficulty level of assessment process undertaken, alter the boundary cutoff marks by +/- 5 marks.
(g) UERC would moderate the results of the different sections of a class if vide disparity in performance across sections is observed.
13 Page 14
(h) There is no provision for supplementary examination or summer quarter in the Laboratory Component. If a student cannot clear the Laboratory Component ofa particular subject, he/sh e will be assigned gradeF in that subject.
2. Re-evaluation
(a) A student may apply for re-evalua tion with a fee as laid down by the University within ten days of declaration of the result in a prescribed Performa available in the office of the Registrar/Principal. Th e Controller of Examinations shall get the re-evaluation done by an examiner other than the one who has already marked the answer book.
(b) Only marking of unchecked/unmarked question and recounting of the marks awarded and the total of marks will be done.
13. Supplementary Examinations:
Supplementary examinations may be allowed to the students who have appeared in the end semester examination and failed in theory securing not less than 20% marks in the end semester examination (including internal assessment) provided they have secured a pass grade in the practicals of that course. In case the course comprises only practicals, no supplementary.will be given in practicals. The student will have to appear in the examination only and their internal marks will be counted as previously received from the Principal/Dean. The student who fails to obtain prescribed grade/grade point in the supplementary examination of odd semester shall have to pay prescribed fees and other charges and register for the same course (s) on regular basis with the odd semester of subsequent academic session and in case of an even semester the student will repeat the course in the even semester of the following academic session.

(a) The repetition shall be permitted only to enable the student to fulfill the minimum grade point average requirement and not for the improvement of his grade point average or for enabling him to qualify for the award of a scholarship / fellowship or for competing for.a Certificate of Merit or for a position in the University.
(b) When a student repeats a course, credits corresponding to that c ourse shall be counted only for the graduation requirements.
16. Dropping a Student Those students who fail to achieve the minimum CGPA of 5.0 at the end of four semesters i.e. after two full academic years for a four year degree programme will be given two chances (2 years) to obtain the required minimum CGPA, if the student fails to do so, the student shall be dropped from the University by the Registrar, automatically.
