Assessment Details (both CIE and SEE)

  • The weightage of Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) is 50% and for Semester End Exam (SEE) is 50%.
  • The minimum passing mark for the CIE is 40% of the maximum marks (20 marks out of 50).
  • The minimum passing mark for the SEE is 35% of the maximum marks (18 marks out of 50).
  • A student shall be deemed to have satisfied the academic requirements and earned the credits allotted to each subject/ course if the student secures not less than 35% (18 Marks out of 50) in the semester-end examination(SEE), and a minimum of 40% (40 marks out of 100) in the total of the CIE (Continuous Internal Evaluation) and SEE (Semester End Examination) taken together.

 

Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE):

The CIE marks for the theory component of the IC shall be 30 marks and for the laboratory component 20 Marks. CIE for the theory component of the IC

  • Three Tests each of 20 Marks; after the completion of the syllabus of 35-40%, 65-70%, and 90- 100% respectively.
  • Two Assignments/two quizzes/ seminars/one field survey and report presentation/one-course project totalling 20 marks. Total Marks scored (test + assignments) out of 80 shall be scaled down to 30 marks CIE for the practical component of the IC  On completion of every experiment/program in the laboratory, the students shall be evaluated and marks shall be awarded on the same day. The 15 marks are for conducting the experiment and preparation of the laboratory record, the other 05 marks shall be for the test conducted at the end of the semester.
  • The CIE marks awarded in the case of the Practical component shall be based on the continuous evaluation of the laboratory report. Each experiment report can be evaluated for 10 marks. Marks of all experiments’ write-ups are added and scaled down to 15 marks.
  • The laboratory test (duration 03 hours) at the end of the 15th week of the semester/after completion of all the experiments (whichever is early) shall be conducted for 50 marks and scaled down to 05 marks. Scaled-down marks of write-up evaluations and tests added will be CIE marks for the laboratory component of IC/IPCC for 20 marks.
  • The minimum marks to be secured in CIE to appear for SEE shall be 12 (40% of maximum marks) in the theory component and 08 (40% of maximum marks) in the practical component. The laboratory component of the IC/IPCC shall be for CIE only. However, in SEE, the questions from the laboratory component shall be included. The maximum of 05 questions is to be set from the practical component of IC/IPCC, the total marks of all questions should not be more than 25 marks. The theory component of the IC shall be for both CIE and SEE.

 

Semester End Examination (SEE):

Theory SEE will be conducted by University as per the scheduled timetable, with common question papers for the subject (duration 03 hours)

  • The question paper shall be set for 100 marks. The medium of the question paper shall be English/Kannada). The duration of SEE is 03 hours.
  • The question paper will have 10 questions. Two questions per module. Each question is set for 20 marks. The students have to answer 5 full questions, selecting one full question from each module. The student has to answer for 100 marks and marks scored out of 100 shall be proportionally reduced to 50 marks.
  • There will be 2 questions from each module. Each of the two questions under a module (with a maximum of 3 sub-questions), should have a mix of topics under that module.
