Programme Assessment

Choice-Based Credit System (CBCS): Allows students to choose courses and earn credits based on their performance.
Grades and GPA: Students are awarded grades for each course in a semester. Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) is calculated to measure performance per semester, and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) measures overall performance.
Prescribed Curriculum: Each programme includes a prescribed curriculum or Scheme of Teaching and Evaluation. It incorporates SWAYAM and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) offered by reputed institutions.
Auditing Courses: Students may audit courses to gain additional exposure without grade pressure, which can benefit placements.
Evaluation System: Comprises Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) and Semester End Examination (SEE), each carrying 50% weightage.
Assessment Methods: Faculty may choose from methods such as assignments, seminars, quizzes, group discussions, case studies, practical activities, and presentations.
Semester End Examination: Conducted for all registered courses unless the course has only CIE.
Makeup Examinations: Offered to students who fail the SEE in one or more courses, allowing them to retake and improve their grades.

Programme Outcome

Engineering Knowledge: Apply the knowledge of Mathematics, Science, Engineering Fundamentals, and a specialisation to solve complex engineering problems.
Design/Development of Solutions: Design solutions for complex engineering problems and system components considering public health, safety, and environmental factors.
Investigations of Complex Problems: Use research-based knowledge and methods to analyse and interpret data, and synthesise information for valid conclusions.
Modern Tool Usage: Select and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools with an understanding of limitations.
The Engineer and Society: Apply contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal, and cultural issues.
Environment and Sustainability: Understand the impact of professional engineering solutions on societal and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the need for sustainable development.
Ethics: Commit to professional ethics and responsibilities.
Individual and Team Work: Function effectively as an individual or team member in multidisciplinary settings.
Communication: Communicate effectively in professional settings, including writing reports, documentation, and presentations.
Project Management and Finance: Apply engineering and management principles to team and project work.
Lifelong Learning: Demonstrate preparedness for independent, lifelong learning in the context of technological change.
