Evaluations

Assessment of student performance

The evaluation of performance in different academic events such as courses and projects carrying credit value will be as per percentages and credits. Each event will carry a credit value. The Course Director at the end of the course will award final cumulative total marks out of 100. Total marks received by a student will be a weighted summation of marks obtained over different assessment events including Quizzes, Mid-course Tests, and Classroom Participation, End of the Term Examination, Presentations and other assignments. The aggregate marks obtained by a student will be a sum of individual course-wise marks, weighted by their credit values. The minimum pass percentage in individual courses is 45 %. The minimum cumulative percentage for promotion from one trimester to another trimester is 50%. The minimum aggregate percentage for the award of PG diploma is 50%. One should get more than 75 % to get a first class and more than 85% to get a distinction. A student who fails in a course is permitted to sit in the supplementary examination to be held at the end of the year during summer months. Students who, for some reason fail to appear in the End of the Term examination may also do so. The marks obtained in the supplementary examination will be scaled down by 10% while being entered into the final marks sheet. The criteria for pass/fail will apply on the scaled down marks.

CH: A quantitative measure of course work which means one hour of class work in or two hours of laboratory/ field work in practical per week per credit.

G: % of marks obtained by the student in a course divided by 10.

CP: Grade multiplied by credit hour allotted to the course.

OGPA: Sum total of credit point earned by the student during the PGDAFBM programme divided by sum total of credit hours of the course studied during the Programme.

1 Credit Course:- one hour of class work in theory or Two hours of laboratory / field work in practical / per week for 12

Examination Scheme:- The scheme of examination defines the various components of evaluation and the weightage attached to each component.

Note : Concept building test refers to how much understanding student has got for the subject.
