The fee for this shall be as decided by the university.
COURSE IMPROVEMENT
A maximum of two courses (Common, Core, Complementary or Open) can be improved in each
semester. Improvement of a particular semester can be done only once. The student shall avail the
improvement chance in the succeeding year after the successful completion of the semester
concerned. The internal marks already obtained will be carried forward to determine the
grades/marks in the improvement examination. If the candidate fails to appear for the

improvement examination after registration, or if there is no change in the results of the

improvement examination appeared, the marks/grades obtained in the first appearance will be
retained.
Improvement and supplementary examinations cannot be done simultaneously.
EVALUATION AND GRADING
Mark system is followed instead of direct grading for each question (for both internal and
external examinations). For each course in the semester letter grade, grade point and % of marks
are introduced in 7 point indirect grading system. The grading on the basis of a total internal and
external mark will be indicated for each course and for each semester and for the entire
Programme.
Indirect Grading System in 7 point scale is as below.

Range of
Grade Point
% of Marks Grade Interpretation Grade Class
(G)
Points
90 and above A+ Outstanding 6 5.5 to 6 First class

with
80 to below 90 A Excellent 5 4.5 to 5.49 distinction
70 to below 80 B Very Good 4 3.5 to 4.49 First class
60 to below 70 C Good 3 2.5 to 3.49
50 to below 60 D Satisfactory 2 1.5 to 2.49 Second

class
40 to below 50 E Pass/Adequate 1 0.5 to 1.49 Pass
Below 40 F Failure 0 0 to 0.49 Fail
An aggregate of E grade with 40% marks (after external and internal put together) is required in
each course for a pass and also for awarding a degree.
Appearance for Internal Assessment (IA) and End Semester Evaluation (ES Eexternal)) are
compulsory and no grade shall be awarded to a candidate if she/he is absent for IA/ESE or both.
For a pass in each course 40% marks or E grade is necessary.
A student who fails to secure a minimum grade for a pass in a course is permitted to write the
examination along with the next batch.

After the successful completion of a semester, Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) of a
student in that semester is calculated using the formula given below. For the successful
completion of a semester, a student should pass all courses. However, a student is permitted to
move to the next semester irrespective of SGPA obtained.
The Semester Grade Point Average can be calculated as

𝑆𝑢𝑚 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝐶𝑟𝑒𝑑𝑖𝑡 𝑃𝑜𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠𝑒𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝑎 𝑠𝑒𝑚𝑒𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟
𝑆𝐺𝑃𝐴 =
𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝐶𝑟𝑒𝑑𝑖𝑡𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑆𝑒𝑚𝑒𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟
𝐶1 𝑥 𝐺1+𝐶2 𝑥 𝐺2+𝐶3 𝑥 𝐺3….

i.e. 𝑆𝐺𝑃𝐴 = 𝑛
where G1, G2, … are grade points of different courses; C1, C2, ... are credits of different courses
of the same semester and n is the total credits in that semester.
The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of the student is calculated at the end of a
Programme. The CGPA of a student determines the overall academic level of the student in a
Programme and is the criterion for ranking the students. CGPA can be calculated by the
following formula
The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) can be calculated as

𝑇𝑂𝑇𝐴𝐿 𝐶𝑅𝐸𝐷𝐼𝑇 𝑃𝑂𝑁𝑇𝑆 𝑂𝐵𝑇𝐴𝐼𝑁𝐸𝐷 𝐼𝑁 𝑆𝐼𝑋 𝑆𝐸𝑀𝐸𝑆𝑇𝐸𝑅𝑆
𝐶𝐺𝑃𝐴 =
𝑇𝑂𝑇𝐴𝐿 𝐶𝑅𝐸𝐷𝐼𝑇𝑆
GRADE CARD
The University shall issue to the students grade/marks card (by online) on completion of each
semester, which shall contain the following information.
a) Name of University
b) Name of college
c) Title of Under Graduate Programme
d) Semester concerned
e) Name and Register Number of student
f) Code number, Title and Credits of each course opted in the semester
g) Internal marks, External marks, total marks, Grade point (G) and letter grade for each
course in the semester
h) The total credits, total credit points and SGPA in the semester (corrected to two decimal
places)
i) Percentage of total marks

The final Grade/mark Card issued at the end of the final semester shall contain the details of all
courses taken during the entire Programme including those taken over and above the prescribed
minimum credits for obtaining the degree. However, for the compilation of CGPA only the best
performed courses, if any, with maximum grade points alone shall be taken subject to the
minimum credits requirements (120) for passing a specific degree. The final grade card shall
show the percentage of marks, CGPA (corrected to two decimal places) and the overall letter
grade of a student for the entire Programme. The final grade/mark card shall also include the
grade points and letter grade of common courses, core courses, complementary courses and open
courses, separately. This is to be done in a seven point indirect scale.

AWARD OF DEGREE
The successful completion of all the courses (common, core, complementary and open courses)
prescribed for the B.Sc. Computer Science Programme with E grade (40 %) shall be the
minimum requirement for the award of B.Sc. Computer Science Programme degree.
GRIEVANCE REDRESSAL COMMITTEE

REVALUATION:
In the new system of grading, revaluation is permissible. The prevailing rules for revaluation are
applicable. Students can apply for photocopies of answer scripts of external examinations.
Applications for photocopies/scrutiny/revaluation should be submitted within 10 days of
publication of results. The fee for this shall be as decided by the university.
IMPROVEMENT COURSE
A maximum of two courses (Common, Core, Complementary or Open) can be improved in each
semester. Improvement of a particular semester can be done only once. The student shall avail
the improvement chance in the succeeding year after the successful completion of the semester
concerned. The internal marks already obtained will be carried forward to determine the
grades/marks in the improvement examination. If the candidate fails to appear for the
improvement examination after registration, or if there is no change in the results of the
improvement examination appeared, the marks/grades obtained in the first appearance will be
retained.
Improvement and supplementary examinations cannot be done simultaneously.
EVALUATION AND GRADING

Mark system is followed instead of direct grading for each question (for both internal and
external examinations). For each course in the semester letter grade, grade point and % of
marks are introduced in 7- point indirect grading system. The grading on the basis of a total
internal and external mark will be indicated for each course and for each semester and for the
entire programme.
Indirect Grading System in 7 point scale is as below:

% of Marks Grade Interpretation Grade Range of Class

Point Grade
(G) Points
90 and above A+ Outstanding 6 5.5 to 6 First class
with
80 to below 90 A Excellent 5 4.5 to 5.49 distinction
70 to below 80 B Very Good 4 3.5 to 4.49

First class
60 to below 70 C Good 3 2.5 to 3.49
50 to below 60 D Satisfactory 2 1.5 to 2.49 Second class

Pass/Adequat
40 to below 50 E 1 0.5 to 1.49 Pass
e
Below 40 F Failure 0 0 to 0.49 Fail
An aggregate of E grade with 40% marks (after external and internal put together) is required in
each course for a pass and also for awarding a degree.
Appearance for Internal Assessment (IA) and End Semester Evaluation (ESE-external)) are
compulsory and no grade shall be awarded to a candidate if she/he is absent for IA/ESE or both.
For a pass in each course 40% marks or E grade is necessary
A student who fails to secure a minimum grade for a pass in a course is permitted to write the
examination along with the next batch.
After the successful completion of a semester, Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) of a
student in that semester is calculated using the formula given below. For the successful
completion of a semester, a student should pass all courses. However, a student is permitted to
move to the next semester irrespective of SGPA obtained.
The Semester Grade Point Average can be calculated as
𝑆𝑢𝑚 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝐶𝑟𝑒𝑑𝑖𝑡 𝑃𝑜𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠𝑒𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝑎 𝑠𝑒𝑚𝑒𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟

𝑆𝐺𝑃𝐴 =
𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝐶𝑟𝑒𝑑𝑖𝑡𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑆𝑒𝑚𝑒𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟
𝐶1 𝑥 𝐺1+𝐶2 𝑥 𝐺2+𝐶3 𝑥 𝐺3….

i.e. 𝑆𝐺𝑃𝐴 =
𝑛

where G1, G2, … are grade points of different courses; C1, C2, ... are credits of different courses
of the same semester and n is the total credits in that semester.
The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of the student is calculated at the end of a
programme. The CGPA of a student determines the overall academic level of the student in a
programme and is the criterion for ranking the students. CGPA can be calculated by the
following formula
The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) can be calculated as:
𝑇𝑂𝑇𝐴𝐿 𝐶𝑅𝐸𝐷𝐼𝑇 𝑃𝑂𝑁𝑇𝑆 𝑂𝐵𝑇𝐴𝐼𝑁𝐸𝐷 𝐼𝑁 𝑆𝐼𝑋 𝑆𝐸𝑀𝐸𝑆𝑇𝐸𝑅𝑆

𝐶𝐺𝑃𝐴 =
𝑇𝑂𝑇𝐴𝐿 𝐶𝑅𝐸𝐷𝐼𝑇𝑆
ATTENDANCE
A student shall be permitted to appear for the semester examination, only if he/she secures not
less than 75% attendance in each semester. Attendance shall be maintained by the concerned
Department Condonation of shortage of attendance to a maximum of 9 days in a semester
subject to a maximum of two times during the whole period of the degree programme may be
granted by the University. Benefit of attendance may be granted to students who attend the
approved activities of college/university with prior concurrence of the Head of the institution.
Participation in such activities may be treated as presence in lieu of their absence on production
of participation attendance certificate. It should be limited to a maximum of 9 days in a
semester.
The condonation of shortage of attendance shall be granted according to the existing prescribed
norms.
