The CBCS provides an opportunity for the students to choose courses from the prescribed
courses comprising core, elective or skill based courses.
1. Core Course: A course, which needs to be compulsorily studied by a candidate as a core
requirement is termed as a Core course.

2. Elective Course: Generally a course which can be chosen from a pool of courses and
which may be very specific or specialized or advanced or supportive to the discipline/
subject of study or which provides an extended scope or which enables an exposure to
some other discipline/subject/domain or nurtures the candidate's proficiency/skill is
called an Elective Course.

3. Discipline Specific Elective (DSE) Course: Elective courses may be offered by the main

given in lieu of a discipline specific elective paper.

Note: List of some Discipline Specific Courses and Skill Enhancement Courses Proposed by UGC
are given in Annexure III.
CREDITS DISTRIBUTION
CREDITS: Credit is the weight age given to each course of study. It is the numerical value
assigned to a course according to the relative importance of the content and the contact hours
required to teach the prescribed syllabi of the programme.
For the purpose of credit determination, instructions are divided into 3 components:
Lectures (L): Classroom lectures of one hour duration.
Tutorials (T): Special elaborate instructions on specific topics of one hour duration.
Practicals (P): Laboratory work/Projects/Fieldwork/any other form of learning which the
student has to undertake of two hours duration.
Therefore, Credits (C) = L + T + P, where one Lecture (L) and Tutorial (T) of one hour a week is
considered as one credit and one Practical(P) , two hours a week is considered as one credit.

As per prescribed UGC standards, 1Credit = 15 hours of lectures.

The instructional days as worked out by the UGC for one academic year are 180 working days
i.e. 90 days per semester.
1. CREDIT POINT (P):Credit point is the value obtained by multiplying the grade point (G)
by the credit (C): P = G x C.

2. GRADE POINT: Grade point is an integer indicating the numerical equivalent of the
letter grade.

3. GRADE: Grade means a letter symbol (O, A, B, C etc.) which indicates the broad level of
performance of a student in a course/semester/programme.

4. SEMESTER GRADE POINT AVERAGE (SGPA)*: Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) is
the value obtained by dividing the sum of credit points (P) earned by a student in
various courses taken in a semester by the total number of credits earned by the
student in that semester. SGPA shall be rounded off to two decimal places.

5. CUMULATIVE GRADE POINT AVERAGE (CGPA)*: Cumulative Grade Point Average'

(CGPA) is the value obtained by dividing the sum of credit points in all the courses
earned by a student for the entire programme, by the total number of credits. CGPA
shall be rounded off to two decimal places. CGPA indicates the comprehensive
 academic performance of a student in a programme. An overall letter grade
(Cumulative Grade) for the entire programme shall be awarded to a student depending
on his/her CGPA.

6. GRADE CARD : Based on the grades earned, a grade card shall be issued to all registered
students after every semester. The grade card will display the course details (course,
title, no. of credits, etc. ) along with SGPA of that semester and CGPA earned till that
semester.

Courses having theory and practicals may incorporate 4 credits for theory paper and 2 credits
for practicals (In case total credits are 6) and 2 credits for theory paper and 2 credits for
practicals (In case total credits are 4) while courses having only practicals may have 2/4 credits
as per the course requirement. Purely theory courses may incorporate 4 credits for theory and
2 credits for tutorials.

DETERMINATION OF GRADES (Grading System and

Computation of SGPA, CGPA)
1 Grading System: Absolute grading would be used where the marks obtained are
converted to grades based on pre-determined class intervals. To implement the
following grading system, the colleges /campuses shall use the following UGC
recommended 10-point grading system:

Table 1:Letter Grades and Grade Points

(i) A student obtaining Grade F shall be considered failed and will be required to reappear
in the examination as per existing rules of the university under Semester System for
Under Graduate Courses.
(ii) Grade (D) or percentage of marks (36%) is required to pass in a course, SGPA of 4 to
qualify a semester and a minimum CGPA of 4 to qualify for a UG degree.

2. Computation of SGPA and CGPA:

The following procedure shall be used to compute the Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA)
and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA):

1. The SGPA is the ratio of sum of the product of the number of credits with the grade
points scored by a student in all the courses taken by a student and the sum of the
number of credits of all the courses undergone by a student, i. e SGPA (Si) = Σ(Ci x Gi) /
ΣCi, where Ci is the number of credits of the ith course and Gi is the grade point scored
by the student in the ith course.

2. The CGPA is also calculated in the same manner taking into account all the courses
undergone by a student over all the semesters of a programme, i.e. CGPA = Σ(Ci x Si) / Σ
Ci where Si is the SGPA of the ith semester and Ci is the total number of credits in that
semester.

3. The SGPA and CGPA shall be rounded off to 2 decimal points and reported in the
transcripts.
