 Notes for All the Semesters

1. Every student has to separately pass in End-Semester-Examination (ESE) for both

theory and practical by securing minimum of 40% marks, (i.e. 30 out of 75, 28 out of 70,
20 out of 50, and 10 out of 25).

2. Progressive Assessment (PA) for Theory includes Written Exam/micro projects/

Assignment/Quiz/Presentations/attendance according to the nature of the course. The
scheme and schedule for progressive assessment should be informed to the students and
discussed with them at the start of the term. This scheme should also be informed in
writing to the principal of the institute.

3. Teachers need to give marks judiciously for PA of theory and practicals so that there is
always a reasonable correlation between the ESE marks obtained by the student and the
PA marks given by respective teachers for the same student. In case the PA marks in
some courses of some students seems to be relatively inflated in comparison to ESE
marks, then MSBTE may review the PA records of such students.

4. For developing self-directed learning skills, from each course about 15-20% of the
topics/sub-topics, which are relatively simpler or descriptive in nature are to be given to
the students for self-study and proper learning of these topics should be assured through
classroom presentations by students (see implementation guideline for details).

Note
a) During Summer Break after IV semester (i.e. between IV and V Semester), Polytechnics would ensure
mandatory placement of students for 6 weeks industrial training. Preferably, the industry where students
would be placed should be large or medium scale, however if such industries are not available, then students
can also be placed in small or very small industries but it should be relevant to the branch or discipline of
engineering. This training would be evaluated during V semester.
b) The allotment of the group of students and orientation for industrial training shall be done before the end of
IV semester.
c) Students should prepare report of training, which will be evaluated during V semester.

Industrial Training it is only for awarding marks. As far as teaching load/time table preparation is considered,
each faculty would be assigned with one batch of students (equivalent to practical batch size) for guiding the
preparation of industrial training report and its evaluation. For this purpose 1 hour (or two hours on working
Saturdays) teaching load would be considered.
Note
a) Evaluation of industrial training and its reports is to be done during this semester. Credits of Industrial
Training will not affect the framing of the time table.
b) Students have to choose any one elective group in V semester as stream specific specialisation, and have to
take first course of that group as elective- I in V semester. They would be required to take another two
courses of the same group/stream in VI semester as elective - II and elective - III. Their major and minor
projects should also have emphasis preferably on the same stream of specialisation.

Note
a) The Technical Writing course is introduced as practical work, in which English faculty members would
facilitate the framing of correct language for writing different chapters and presentation (i.e.PPT. and
others) of their project work from English point of view. Name of English teacher has to be included as a
‘Language Editor’ in the project and this activity will be the part of practical shown against Technical
Writing course at VI semester. This work shall be carried out for each batch (size same as for practical).
b) Students who have chosen the stream specific specialisation in elective – I in V semester, should choose the
same stream/group courses in elective – II and elective – III in VI semester. Their major project should also
have emphasis preferably on the same group/stream which could further sharpen their skills in that area.
