of the respective bachelors degree program. A student has to complete all of the designated core courses for
his discipline.
9.2 Pre-requisite Course: Some of the core courses are identified as pre-requisite courses. A pre-requisite course
is one, which is required to be completed before some other course(s) can be taken. Any such course, on
which one or more subsequent courses build up, may be offered in each of the two regular semesters.
9.3 Optional Courses: Apart from the core courses, Students have to complete a number of courses which are
optional in nature. In that, Students have to select the required number of courses from a specified
group/number of courses.

10. Departmental Monitoring Committee and Student Adviser

members nominated by the Committee of Courses studies and Head of the Department as chairman. This
committee monitors and evaluates the performance of the course system within the Department. The
committee may also propose from time to time to the Committee of courses and Studies any changes and
modifications needed for upgrading/changing the Undergraduate Curriculum and the Course System.
10.2 Student Adviser: An advisory board will be appointed for a batch of students of each department to advise
each student on the courses to be taken by the student. The advisory board or one of its members as decided
by the board will discuss with the student his academic program and then decide the number and nature of
courses for which he can register. However, it is the students responsibility to keep contact with his adviser
who will review and eventually approve the students specific plan of study and check on subsequent
progress.

11. Registration Requirements
15

Each and every student must register for the courses he/she intends to take during a given semester on the
basis of the advice and consent of his/her adviser.
11.1 Registration Procedure: Student will fill up his/her Course Registration Form in consultation with and
under the guidance of his/her adviser and must submit to the Registrars Office within one week from the
commencement of the class. Late registration after this date will not be accepted unless the student submits a
written appeal to the Registrar through the concerned Head and can document extenuating circumstances such
as medical problems or some other academic commitments which precluded enrolling prior to the last date of
registration. Moreover, students who fail to register during the designated dates for registration will be
charged a late registration fee. However, no registration will be accepted after two weeks from the
commencement of the class.
11.2 Pre-Condition for Registration: A student will be allowed to register in those courses subject to the
capacity constrains and satisfaction of pre-requisite courses. If a student fails in a pre-requisite course in any
semester, the concerned Department Monitoring Committee may allow him to register for a course which
builds on the pre-requisite course provided his attendance and grades in continuous assessment in the said
pre-requisite course is found to be satisfactory.
Registration will be done at the beginning of each semester. Late registration is however, permitted during the
first week on payment of a late registration fee. Students having out standing dues to the Institute or a hall of
residence shall not. be permitted to register. All students have therefore, to clear their dues and get a clearance
or no dues certificate, on the production of which, they will be given necessary Course Registration Forms
and complete the course registration procedure. Registration Forms are normally available in the Registers
office. An orientation program will be conducted for only the first year students at the beginning of the first
semester when they will be handed over the registration package on producing enrollment slip/proof of
admission.
11.3 Pre-Registration: Pre-registration for course to be offered in a particular semester will be done on the
specified date before the end of the previous semester. All students in consultation with the advisor are
required to complete pre-requisition formalities, failing which a fine may be decided by the authority will
have to be paid before registration in the next term. Further a student who does not pre-register may not get
the courses desired by him subsequently.
11.4 Registration Deadline: Student must register for the courses to be taken before the commencing of each and
no late registration will be accepted after one week of classes which may be relaxed up to maximum of two
weeks for the newly admitted first year students. Late registration after this date will not be accepted unless
the student submits a written appeal to the Registrar through the concerned head and can document
extenuating circumstances such as medical problems ( physically incapacitated and not able to be presented)
or some other academic commitments which precluded enrolling prior to the last date of registration.
11.5 Penalty for Late Registration: Students who fail to register during the designated dates for registration are
charged a late registration fee decided by the authority. This extra fee will not be waived whatever be the
reason for late registration.
11.6 Course Adjustment Procedure: A student would have some limited options to add or delete courses from
his/her registration list within the first two weeks from the beginning of the semester. Adjustment of initially
registered courses in any semester can be done by duly completing the Course Adjustment Form. These forms
are normally available in the Registrations office. For first year students such forms can be included in the
registration packet at the time of orientation.
Any student willing to add or drop courses will have to fill up a Course Adjustment From in consultation with
and under the guidance of his/her adviser. The original copy of the course Adjustment From will be submitted
to the Registrars Office and then the requisite number of photo copies will be made by the Registrars Office
for distribution to the concerned Adviser, Head and the student. All changes in courses must be approved by
the adviser and the Head of the department concerned. The Course Adjustment From will have to be
submitted to the Registrars Office after duly filled in and signed by the concerned persons. To add/drop a
course respective teachers consent will be required.
11.7 Withdrawal from a Semester: If a student is unable to complete the semester Final Examination due to
illness, accident or any other valid reason etc. he/she may apply to the Head of the degree awarding
department for total withdrawal from the semester within a week after the end of the semester final
examination. However, he/she may choose not withdraw any laboratory/sessional/ design course if the grade
obtained in such a course is D or better. The application must be supported by a medical certificate from
any authorized Medical Officer.
16

11.8 Registration Fee: Each student will pay a registration fee of Tk. 15/= per credit and must submit the
document of payment along with the registration form to the Registrars office. It must be noted here that, any
fraction in credit will be considered as a next higher integer credit for calculating registration fee.

12. Striking off the Names and Readmission
12.1 The name of the students shall be struck of removed from the rolls on the following grounds:
i) Non-payment of university fees and dues within the prescribed period.
ii) Forced to discontinue his/her studies under disciplinary rules.
iii) Withdrawal of names from the rolls of the university on grounds acceptable to the authority after having
cleared all dues.
iv) Could not earn required credits for graduation as outlined in the respective curriculum and/or fulfill
CGPA requirement within the maximum allowed time of 7 academic years.
12.2 Every student whose name has been struck off the rolls by exercise of the clauses (ii) of Article 12.1 seeking
readmission after expiry of the period for which he/she was forced to discontinue his/her studies, shall submit
an application to the Head of the Department in the prescribed form before the commencement of the session
to which he/she seeks readmission. The Head of the Department shall forward the application to the Director
of the Institute with his remarks. In case the readmission is allowed the student will be required on payment
of all dues to get him/herself admitted not later than one week from the date of permission given by the
Director. All readmission should preferably be completed before the session start. The percentage of
attendance of the readmitted students shall be counted from the date of readmission.
12.3 No student has withdrawn his/her name under clause (iii) of Article 12.1 shall be given readmission.
12.4 In case s student whose name has been struck off rolls under clause (i) of Article 12.1 seeks readmission
within the session in which his/her name was struck off, he/she shall be readmitted on payment of all the
arrears fees and dues. But if he/she seeks readmission in any subsequent session, the procedure for his/her
readmission will be same as described under Article 12.2.
12.5 The application of a student for readmission will be considered if he/she applies within two academic sessions
from the semester of discontinuance of his/her studies in the Institute. Other than Department as punishment
under ordinance if the Institute relation to discipline, a student of any kind failing for any other reason
whatsoever to become a candidate for a semester final examination in which he/she ought to have had in the
usual process of his/her progressive academic activities, shall be considered to have discontinued his/her
studies for the relevant semester together with striking the name off from current roll and two such
discontinuance periods will be considered equivalent to that for one academic session. The maximum period
of discontinuance under no circumstances is to exceed two academic sessions during a students period of
studies for the degree.
12.6 In case any application for readmission is rejected, the student may appeal to the Academic Council shall be
final.
12.7 A student, whose name has been struck off the rolls by exercise of clause (iv) of Article 12.1, is not eligible to
seek readmission.

13. Grading System: The letter grade system shall be used to assess the performance of the student and shall be as
follows:

Numerical Grade Letter Grade Grade Point
80% or above A+

4.00
75% to less than 80% A 3.75
70% to less than 75% A-

3.50
65% to less than 70% B+ 3.25
60% to less than 65% B 3.00
55% to less than 60% B- 2.75
50% to less than 55% C+ 2.50
45% to less than 50% C 2.25
40% to less than 45% D 2.00
Less than 40% F 0.00

17

A grade X shall be awarded for courses (like project & thesis, design, etc.) in the odd semester which continue
through to the even semester.

13.1 Calculation of GPA and CGPA: Grade point average (GPA) is the weighted average in a semester. F
grades do not count for GPA calculation. GPA of a semester will be calculated as follows.

Where, n is the total number of courses passed by the student in the semester, C
i
is the number of credits allotted to a
particular course i and G
i
is the grade point corresponding to the grade awarded for i- th course.

The overall or Cumulative grade point average (CGPA) gives the cumulative performance of the student from first
semester up to any other semester to which it refers and is computed as follows,

by dividing the total grade points (C
i
G
i
) accumulated up to the date by the total credit (C
i
). Both GPA and
CGPA will be rounded off to the second place of decimal for reporting.
The equivalent marks corresponding to CGPA of a student can be calculated as-

Eqivalent Marks = 79+84*(x-3.75) for 3.75 x 4.0
= 44+20*(x-2.00) for 2.20 x 3.75

Where x is the CGPA of a student.

14. Distribution of Marks
14.1 The distribution of marks for a given course will be as follows
i) Theory courses:
Class participation and performance 10%
Quizzes/Class tests 20%
Semester final exam (3 hours duration) 70%
Total 100%

ii) Independent laboratory/sessional/design/field work courses
Class participation and attendance 10%
Quizzes 15%
Performance/reports 50%
Viva voce (conducted by the department) 25%
Total 100%
iii) Project & Thesis
Viva voce (conducted by a viva voce committee) 20%
Supervisor (internal examiner) 50%
External examiner 30%
Total 100%

14.2 It is desirable that weightage on continuous assessment as described in Article 14.1 such as quizzes and class
tests, class participation and attendance etc. should be increased up to 50% and weightage on semester final
examination should be reduced to above 50% gradually.
14.3 Basis for calculating marks for class participation and attendance may be as follows:
Attendance Marks

90% and above 10%
85% to less than 90% 9%
Less than 60% 0%

14.4 The students whose percentage of attendance will fall short of 75% in any of the theory, lab/sessional courses
for which he/she has registered in one academic year shall not be eligible for the award of any type of
scholarship/stipend /grant for the following academic session.

15. Class Tests/Quizzes
i) There shall be at least four class tests on each theory course in a semester, out of which best three for each
student shall be used for assesment.
ii) Duration of quizzes/class tests should not exceed 15 minutes and shall be held during the scheduled lecture or
tutorial period. Materials covered should be what were taught in 2 to 3 previous classes or most recent
classes.
iii) The dates for the quizzes/class test shall be fixed by the Head or Course Coordinator and shall be announced
accordingly.
iv) Class tests shall ordinarily be of equal values. The marks obtained by the students in each individual class test
shall be posted for information of the students preferably before the next class test is held.
16. Earned Credits
The courses in which a student has obtained D or a higher grade will only be counted as credits earned by
him/her. A student, who obtains a F grade in any course in any semester, it would be a Backlog. If a student
obtains a D grade in a course will be allowed to repeat the course for the purpose of grade improvement if
CGPA of the student falls below 2.20. In such case he/she will be awarded the new grade thus he/she obtains
or retains his/her previous grade if he/she fails.

17. Performance Evaluation
The minimum CGPA requirement for obtaining a B. Sc. Engineering degree is 2.2. The performance of a
student will be evaluated in terms of two indices, viz. semester grade point average and cumulative grade
point average.
Student will be considered to be making normal progress toward a degree if their CGPA for all courses
attended is 2.2 or more. Students who regularly maintain semester GPA or 2.20 or better are making good
progress toward their degrees and are in good standing with the University. Students who fail to maintain this
minimum rate of progress will not be in good standing. This can happen when one or more of the following
conditions exist:
i) Semester GPA falls below 2.20 or
ii) Cumulative GPA falls below 2.20
iii) Earned credits fall below 15 times the number of Semester attended/studies.
All such students can make up deficiencies in GPA and credit requirements by completing courses of next
semester(s) and backlog courses, if there be any, with better grades. When GPA and credit requirements are
achieved,
The student is returned to good standing. Students whose GPA will fall below 2.20 will have to be notified so
that the necessary remedial measures can be taken.

18. Honors, Vice Chancellors List and Syndicate Gold medal
Candidates for Bachelors degree in engineering will be awarded the degree with honors if their CGPA is
3.75 or higher.
In recognition of excellent performance, the names of students who maintains good standing with the Institute
obtaining SGPA of 3.75 or above in two regular semesters in each academic year may be published in the
Vice Chancellors List in each department. Students who have received F grade in any course during any of
the two regular semesters will not be considered for Vice Chancellors List in that year.
19

If a students can show extraordinary brilliance and obtains all A or better grades in all the courses he/she
attended and fulfills the credit requirement for graduation will be honored by awarding BOG gold medal in a
special function/convocation.

19. Student Classification
For a number of reasons it is necessary to have a definite system by which to classify students as First year,
Second year, Third year and Fourth year. Regular students are classified according to the number of credit
hours earned towards a degree. The following classification applies to the students.
Year Earned credits
First year 0 to 35
Second year 36 to 70
Third year 71 to 105
Fourth year 106 and above

20. Registration for the Second & subsequent Semester
A student is normal required to earn at least 15 credits in semester. At the end of each semester, the students
will be categorized as follows:
Category - 1 :
It consists of students who have passed all the courses prescribed for the semester and have no backlog courses.
A student belonging to Category 1 will be eligible to register for all courses prescribed for the next semester.
Category - 2 :
It consists of students who have earned at least 15 credits in the semester but do not belong to category 1. A
student belonging to Category 2 is advised to take at least one course less in the next semester subject to the
condition that he/she has to register for such backlog courses as may be prescribed by the adviser.
Category -3 :
It consists of students who have failed to earn 15 credits in the semester. A students belonging to Category 3 is
advised to take at least two courses less subject for registration for minimum of 15 credits. However, he/she will
be required to register for such backlog courses as may prescribe by the adviser.

21. Probation and Suspension
Undergraduate students who regularly maintain semester GPA of 2.20 or better satisfying the minimum credit
requirements are making good progress toward their degrees and are in good standing with the Institute.
Students who fail to maintain this minimum rate of progress may be placed on academic probation.
The status of academic probation is a reminder/warning to the student that satisfactory progress towards
graduation is not being made. A student may be placed on academic probation when either of the following
conditions exists:
i) The Semester GPA falls below 2.20 or
ii) The cumulative GPA falls below 2.20
Students on probation are subject to such restriction with respect to courses and extracurricular activities as
may be imposed by the respective Head of the Department.
The minimum period of probation is one semester, but the usual period is for one academic year. This allows
a student an opportunity to improve the GPA through the completion of additional course work during the
period that the student is on probation. The probation is extended for additional semester until the student
achieves an overall GPA if 2.20 or better. When that condition is achieved, the student is returned to good
standing.
Academic probation is not being taken lightly- it is a very serious matter. A student on academic probation
who fails to maintain a GPA of at least 2.20 during two consecutive academic years may be suspended from
this university. A student who has been suspended may apply for consideration to the vice chancellor, but this
application will not be considered until the student has been suspended at least one full semester.
Petitions for reinstatement must set forth clearly the reasons for the previous unsatisfactory academic record
and it must delineate the new conditions that have been created to prevent the recurrence of such work. Each
such petition is considered individually on its own merits. The petition is considered individually on its own
20

merits. After consideration of the petition and perhaps after consultation with the student, adviser and the
respective Head of the Department, vice chancellor in some cases; reinstate the student if this is the first
suspension. However, a second suspension will be regarded as final and absolute.
22. Measures for helping academically weak Students
The following provisions are made as far as possible to help academically weak students to enable them to
complete their studies within the maximum period of seven years.
a) All such students whose Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is less than 2.20 at the end of a
semester may be given a load not exceeding four theory/combined courses in the next semester.
b) For other academic deficiencies, some basic and core courses may be offered during the regular semester
under special arrangement in order to enable the student to partially make up for the reduced load during
regular semester.
Following criteria are followed for determining academically weak students.
i) CGPA falling below 2.20
ii) Semester grade point average (SGPA) falling below 2.20 points below that of previous semester.
iii) Earned credit calling below 15 times the number of semester attended.

23. Minimum Earned credit and GPA Requirements for Obtaining Degree
Minimum credit requirements for the awarded of Bachelor of Engineering Degree will be decided by the
respective committee of courses and studies. The minimum CGPA requirements for obtaining a Bachelor of
Engineering Degree are 2.20.
A student may take additional courses with the consent of his/her adviser in order to raise CGPA, but he/she
may take a maximum of 15 such additional credits beyond respective credit requirements for bachelors
degree during his/her entire period of student.

24. Time Limits of Completion of Bachelors Degree
Students must complete his/her students within a maximum period of seven years for engineering.
25. Industrial/ Professional Training Requirements:
Depending on each Departments own requirement a student may have to complete a prescribed number of
days of industrial/ professional training in addition of minimum credit and other requirements, to the
satisfaction of the concerned department.

26. Application for Graduation and Award of Degree:
A student who has fulfilled all the academic requirements for bachelors degree will have to apply to the
Register/Director through his/her Adviser for graduation. Provisional degree will be awarded in completion of
credit and GPA requirements. Such provisional degree will be confirmed by the academic council.

27. Inclusion of repeaters from present system to the new course system
Repeater students will be included in the courses system of curricula as and when such situation will arise.
27.1 Equivalence of Courses and Grades: Equivalence of courses passed previously by any repeater student
shall be determined by the respective Committee of Courses & Studies for the purpose of:
a) Allowing course exemption and
b) Conversion of present grades into proposed grades in exempted courses.
27.2 Time Limit for Completion of Bachelors Degree: Time allowed for a student included in Course System
from Previous System to complete studies leading to a bachelors degree will be proportional to the
remaining credits to be completed by him/her.
A student in engineering for example, having earned 40 credit hours through equivalence and exemption (for
previously completed courses) out of a total requirement of 162 credits for bachelors degree will get.
(7 yr. X 122/162 = 5.25) = 5-1/2 years (rounded to next higher half-a year) or 11 (eleven) Regular semester to
fulfill all requirements for bachelors degree.
27.3 Relaxation of Course Registration for Repeaters: Relaxation of course Registration for a student
transferred to course system from Previous system: - the requirement of registration of minimum 15 credit
hours in a semester shall waived for only the semester of the year where he/she has been transferred in course
system provided that he/she has been granted exemption in some of the courses offered in those terms.
21

28. Absence during Semester
A Student should not be absent quizzes tests etc. during the semester. Such absence will naturally lead to
reduction in points/marks, which count towards the final grade. Absence in semester final examination will
result in F grade.
A Student who has been absent for short periods, up to a maximum of three week due to illness, should
approach the course teacher(s) or the course coordinators(s) for a make-up quizzes or assignments
immediately on returning to the classes. Such request should be supported by medical certificate from
Institute medical officer. The medical certificate issued by a registered medical practitioner (with the
registration number shown explicitly or the certificates) will also be acceptable only in those cases where the
students has valid reason for his/her absence from the Institute.

29. Rules for Backlog Examination
(i) Backlog examination will be held, if possible, once in a year. A student can sit for examination for at best three
Backlog courses. Department concerned shall notify to the students in advance the Backlog Examination
schedule and the academic year would be taken into consideration for taking backlog examination.
(ii) A student can get a maximum B grade for any subject in Backlog examination.
(iii) Class test marks would be appened from his/her last record of the particular subject.

30. Provisions for Short Semester
(i) After publication of the result of 4
th
year Backlog examination of a department, ashort semester may be started.
The duration of the semester would be a maximum of 10 weeks soon after publication of the 4
th
year backlog
result.
(ii) Students having only backlog courses to complete shall get this opportunity but he/she must sit for class test
examinations as prescribed by the course teacher or the department.
(iii) A student can register a maximum of 05 courses in a short semester.

31. Publications of result

(i) A student must successfully complete the courses of all the semesters as outlined by the UGAC with all its pre-
requisites in order to be eligible for the award of B.Sc. Engineering degree. The CGPA for the student must be
2.0 or higher.
(ii) Merit position of a student shall be determined on the basis of his/her CGPA of all the semesters.
(iii) A student having backlog course(s) during publication of the 8th semester result willl not be given a position

Elective Courses

From 4th year 1st semester, the department starts offering elective courses under 3 major groups viz. Power,
Electronics and Communication.

Rules for distributing major groups are as follows:

1. Students will be assigned one of the three major groups on the basis of options given by the students and their
CGPA at the end of 3rd year odd semester. For regular students, this will be done in 3rd year even semester.
2. Maximum number of students in any major group will be N/3, where N is the total number of students in a
batch.
3. A student will have to take 5 elective courses along with the corresponding sessional courses from the
respective major group.
4. Students will be assigned their projects/ theses in 4th year odd semester from the area of their respective major
group.
5. Maximum class size of an elective course for regular students will be N/3. However, a student who has
previously failed in an elective course will be allowed to re-register the course regardless of the class size.
6. In case of any unforeseen situation or ambiguity, the Department will take an appropriate decision.
