| Evaluation & Grading » |
|
The
performance of students is evaluated
through a continuous assessment
procedure spread over the entire period
of studies. In addition to the final
exams, each student’s performance is
evaluated on the basis of mid-term
exams, case studies, assignments,
quizzes, reports and presentations.
Attendance at all prescribed and
elective lectures and seminars is
mandatory. A maximum of 20% absence is
allowed per subject to cater for
emergencies, sickness etc. More then 20%
absence in a subject will result in ‘F’
grade in that course. University policy
does not allow the provision of
‘Make-up’ examinations in any course
under any circumstances.
The weightage assigned to examination,
assignments, quizzes and research papers
are left to the discretion and judgment
of the course instructor. However, the
students are informed of these through a
detailed course outline issued in the
first session of each subject. Students
who wish to apply for scrutiny of their
answer scripts are required to submit
their requests to the Controller of
Examinations. In addition to the GPA
requirements, another basis of
evaluation and continuous good standing
is cumulative GPA, which must not fall
below 2.5 in any two consecutive terms.
If it does, the student is liable to be
expelled from the University. In order
to become eligible for the award of
degree, a student must attain graduating
