Institute Profile
Kasegaon Education Society's "Rajarambapu Institute of Technology", Rajaramnagar,
Sakharale, (Tal. - Walwa Dist. – Sangli) was established as a self-financed Engineering
Institute in 1983.It is affiliated to the Shivaji University, Kolhapur, recognized by Government
of Maharashtra and approved by All India Council for Technical Education, New Delhi. The
objective of the institute is to provide excellent technical education for producing high quality
engineering manpower for industry and to promote academic excellence through research and
development.

The Institute has achieved a long term goal to attain complete Academic Autonomy. This
allows the institute to prescribe its Academic Calendar, design its own structure and syllabi,
conduct examination, carry out Assessment/Evaluation and declare results. Under autonomy
the degree however shall be awarded by Shivaji University on completion of the program.

The institute proposes to implement an experiential learning model (ELM) under Autonomous
structure. It is always perceived in the context of engineering
educationthatinstitutesproduceengineerswithastrongtheoreticaland conceptual background
with a limited focus on hands on experience. There exists a gap between what students learn
and what the industry demands. RIT in its autonomy model makes a sincere effort to adopt an
experiential learning model (ELM) which focuses on learning by doing.

Experiential learning provides opportunity for the students to experiment and learn better by
doing. The curriculum will be designed keeping in mind the hands on experience through
extensive experimentation through lab work, plant visits, in-plant training, mini projects and
projects in industries. A judicious mix of theory and practices will make RIT students as
preferred prospective employees.

RIT as an autonomous Institute functions with the objectives of promoting academic freedom
and scholarship on the part of teachers and students which are essential for fostering an
development of intellectual ambiance conducive to the pursuit of scholarship and excellence.
The focus of the Institute is always student centric and the endeavor shall be to ensure that
students get the best of what is required to create Outstanding Engineers.

RIT has been offering undergraduate (U.G.) programs leading to Bachelor's degree (B. Tech.)
since last 30 years. The programs offered and degrees obtained are listed as shown in Table
1. The admission to U.G. program which shall be of eight academic semesters is as per the
norms set by the competent Authority of the Government of Maharashtra/ Directorate of
Technical Education, Mumbai / Shivaji University, Kolhapur and which shall be prevailing at
the time of the admission.

U. G. Program consists of courses in Sciences, Humanities and Social Sciences, Engineering

and Technology and other related areas. The sequence of studies consists of broadly four
stages.

The first stage involves introduction to courses in science, humanities and technical skills.
This shall be common to all UG programs.

The second stage involves the study of engineering courses that emphasize a broad based
knowledge in interdisciplinary areas which enables a student to appreciate the links between
science, engineering, technology and humanities.

In the third stage, a student is exposed to courses in the chosen branch of Engineering which
dwell on the principles governing design and which develop in them the ability for physical
and analytical modeling, design and development.

During the final stage, a student studies problems of integrated design with an awareness of
size, performance, optimization and cost. The student works for his/her final year project in a
small group under the supervision of the faculty member/instructor assigned to the group.

A student is also introduced to the social and economic objectives of the era and to the
interaction between man, machine and nature. This is achieved through courses in humanities
& social sciences through practical training, fieldwork, industrial visits, seminars, co-
curricular and extra-curricular activities etc.

student who has cleared his/her Phase II evaluation shall present the status of the
work carried out on the dissertation after 8-10 weeks of Phase II ESE to the same
three members of DPGC as above. If the performance of the student for this progress
seminar is not found satisfactory then he/she shall be given a grace period of four
weeks to repeat the seminar with grade penalty for ISE.

 Final Evaluation (Phase IV): Similar to Phase II evaluation, Phase IV evaluation

shall also be based on term work evaluation by DPGC (ISE) and Final Evaluation
by a panel of examiners (ESE).

 After completing the dissertation work to the satisfaction of the DPGC members, the
student shall submit the dissertation report in the prescribed format to the concerned
department on or before the last date of such submission as per the academic
calendar of that semester. The open defense of the student on his/her dissertation
shall be arranged by Exam Cell within 15 days after the final date of report submission.
This defense shall be in front of the panel of examiners as given above.
 In term work evaluation if the progress is not found satisfactory by DPGC committee
members, he/she shall be given a grace period of four weeks to work on the
dissertation and present it to the committee again. In such case, the student has to
suffer a grade penalty in ISE. Phase IV ESE for such a student shall also be delayed
by maximum period of one month. In any case all evaluations shall get over before
the beginning of the next academic years PG program.
 If due to valid reasons (the proof for which has been submitted by the student) the
dissertation work is delayed, then the student may be given permission to register
for maximum two semesters by paying the fees as decided by Academic Council.
Such students, when assessed for any of the evaluation phases will have to suffer a
grade penalty.
 The student, who has been given the extension of six month, shall be treated as a regular
student and no grade penalty will be imposed.

in laboratory course shall be eligible to apply only for 100% examination
conducted with the laboratory examinations of the subsequent semester. In
both cases, a student has to suffer one grade penalty. The laboratory
examination will be conducted after semester II regular examination along with
supplementary/re-examination for both laboratory courses for semester I and
semester II.
f) Grade "XX" in a regular course shall be given to a student if he/she falls in any
of the following categories.
i. A student does not maintain the minimum attendance requirement for any
of the theory/laboratory/seminar/dissertation work.
ii. A student has not completed most of the evaluations namely ISE, UT1 and
UT2 due to non-medical reasons (e.g. when a student has missed all or most
of the components of internal evaluation and unit tests conducted by the
instructor in that semester).
iii. A student fails to obtain 40% marks in ISE, UT1 and UT2 combined
together.
iv. A student is guilty of any academic malpractice during semester (Such
cases shall be dealt by Student Grievances and Redressal Committee).
v. A student is guilty of any academic malpractice during examination.

Following rules apply to the student who has obtained grade "XX" in a
regular semester:
i. If a student has XX grades in more than three courses, his term will be detained
and he is not allowed to appear for ESE in any of the subjects. The student is
required to take the fresh admission to the same class by paying all fees in the
next academic year.

ii. Students having XX grades in 3 or less number of courses during odd semester
can appear for 100% examination conducted at the end of the academic year
along with supplementary examination of semester I or register for the courses
during summer term, if offered.

iii. Students having XX grades in 3 or less number of courses during even semester
can appear for 100% examination conducted at the end of the semester II of next
academic year along with re-examination of semester II (Even Semester) or

17
 register for the courses during summer term, if offered in the next academic
year.

iv. ISE, UT1 and UT2 marks of such students will become null and void and they
have to appear for 100% examination.

v. The re-examination shall be of 100 marks and shall be based on entire syllabus
with equal weightage to all the units as mentioned in syllabus of the course. The
grading used for 100 % examination shown in Table 3.7.1.

Table 3.7.1 Award Grades for 100% examination

Marks Grades

40 to 54 DD
55 to 69 CD
70 to 85 CC
> 86 BC

vi. In above two cases when a student gets "XX" grade in a course, then this shall
be treated as "FF" for the purpose of calculation of Semester Performance Index
(SPI) and First Year Performance Index (FYPI) or Cumulative Performance
Index (CPI). Refer Sec. 11 for calculation of Performance Indices.
vii. Grade "II" shall be declared in a theory/laboratory course if a student has
satisfactory in-semester performance and UT1 and UT2 and has fulfilled the 75%
attendance requirement, but has not appeared for ESE due to genuine reasons.
Such students shall be eligible for the make-up examination of ESE only on
medical grounds/valid reasons and on production of authentic medical
certificate or other supporting document/s (as required by the institute) to
the Exam Cell within 10 days after the respective examination is over. The
application form with requisite amount of fees must be submitted to the Exam
Cell before the last date of filling such application forms for make-up
examinations.
viii. A student with "II" grade when appears for the make-up examination shall be
eligible to obtain a regular performance grade ("AA" to "FF") as per Table 10.1,
depending on his/her overall performance in ISE, UT1 and UT2. If a student fails
to appear for make-up examination too, a grade "XX" shall be awarded to
him/her. Thus "II" is only a temporary grade and shall be replaced by a valid
grade only after make-up examination.

 shall be awarded for such courses depending upon the performance of a student
evaluated by the course instructor. No grade points shall be associated with these
grades and performance in these courses shall be not taken into account in the
calculation of the performance indices (SPI, CPI). However, the award of the
degree shall be subject to obtaining a "PP" grade in all such courses.

3.7.2 Award of Grades for Supplementary/Re examinations:

A student who has obtained grade "FF" in regular semesters odd or even
(semester I or Semester II) shall be eligible to appear for supplementary/re-
examination conducted after regular examination of semester II, before the

grade in both ESE and supplementary/re-examination shall be eligible to choose one
of the two options below to clear his/her backlog:
 Registration for summer term (If offered)
 Re-registration for the next regular semester course whenever that course is offered.

A student detained in a regular semester due to either a) by obtaining "XX" grade or b) by

involvement in academic malpractice or c) by breaking the institute code of conduct and
discipline cannot apply for summer term for that academic year, but can appear for 100%
examination to clear the backlog.

in regular semester by giving a chance to appear for make-up examination held before
the commencement of the next academic year with grade Table 10.3 being applicable
to him/her.

3.7.4 SUPPLIMENTARY AND RE- EXAMINATION

Supplementary and Re-Examination will be conducted only in the second semester.
There will not be any re-examination / make up examination at the end of first
semester. The students will get two opportunities for semester I and Semester II in
the academic year to pass the examination.

(Summer 2 Supplementary examination of odd semester
Examinations) 3 Re- examination of even semester

There will be only one grade penalty for the first three attempts and ESE and ISE,
UT 1 and UT 2 marks are to be carried forward for three attempts in case of FF grade
(Fail Grade). If the student fails to pass the courses in first three attempts, from 4th
and subsequent chances, the grade penalty will be as per the table of 100%
examination (Table 10.2). In case of XX grade, the students will not be allowed to
appear for the re-examination conducted in the immediate semester. It is 100%
comprehensive examination and the question paper shall be of 100 marks covering
all units for 3 hours duration.

Mechanism of Re-Registration
The mechanism to be followed for the process of Re-registration of Theory and
Laboratory courses is as given below:

I) Theory Courses:
Following process shall apply for re-registration of theory course/s:
a) A student, who has obtained ‘FF’ Grade in more than three courses (odd or even semester)
in an academic year, can re-register for the course/s immediately in the next academic
year, whenever such course/s is offered.

b) Such student/s shall submit the application form in the prescribed format (available in the
office) along with the copy of mark sheet and requisite re-registration fee to the office
through Head of concerned Department within 15 days after declaration of examination

to apply for re-registration with late fee for the maximum period of 10 days. Thereafter,
the student will have to re-register by paying prescribed super late fee (in addition to late
fee) till the date of commencement of new semester. A student failing to re-register until
the date of commencement of new semester (as per the Academic Calendar) will not be
eligible for re-registration.

d) After receiving the re-registration application and necessary fees from the student, the
office shall communicate the information of such re-registered student/s to the
Examination Center as well as the Head of concerned Department and ERP coordinator
for further process. The concerned Head of Department will then display the list of such

21
 re-registered students on the department notice board and ensure that all the evaluations
(ISE, UT1 & UT2) will be conducted along with regular student. After completion of the
ISE, UT1 & UT2 by the student/s, the course instructor will submit the mark sheets to the
Examination Center.

II) Laboratory Courses:

Following process shall apply for re-registration of laboratory course/s:
a) A student who has obtained “XX” grade in the Laboratory course/s of a semester (odd or
even) shall have to re-register for that course/s immediately in the next semester. Such
student shall submit the application form in the prescribed format (available in the office)
along with the copy of mark sheet and prescribed re-registration fee per course to the
office through Head of concerned Department within 15 days after declaration of
examination results.

b) The student failing to re-register for the course/s within the specified duration shall have
to apply for re-registration with late fee for the maximum period of 10 days. Thereafter,
the student will have to re-register by paying prescribed super late fee till the date of
commencement of new semester. A student failing to re-register until the date of
commencement of new semester will not be eligible for re-registration.
c) After receiving the re-registration application and necessary fees from the student, the
office shall communicate the information of such re-registered student/s to the
Examination Center as well as the Head of concerned Department and ERP coordinator
for further process.

d) The concerned Head of Department will then display the list of such re-registered students
on the department notice board and will prepare the schedule for ISE of Laboratory course
as per the convenience of the faculty and student/s.

e) Thus, ISE of Laboratory course of such re-registered student/s will be conducted as per
the schedule and after satisfactory completion of the ISE component by the student/s, the
course in charge will have to submit the marks obtained by students to the Examination
Center.

3.7.5. CALCULATION OF PERFORMANCE INDICES

The performance indices viz. Semester Performance Index (SPI), Cumulative Performance
Index (CPI) represent the performance of a student in a semester (SPI) and cumulated over all
semesters till current semester (CPI) on a scale of 10.

22
A. Semester Performance Index (SPI):
The performance of a student in a semester shall be indicated by a number called SPI.

SPI shall be the weighted average of the grade points obtained in all the courses
registered by the student during a semester.

If ‘gi’ shall be a grade with numerical equivalent as gi obtained by a student for the
course with credits ‘Ci’ then, SPI for that semester is calculated using formula.

∑𝑖 Ci g i
SPI =
∑𝑖 Ci

Where summation is for all the courses registered by a student in that semester, SPI
shall be calculated and is rounded off to two decimal places.

SPI shall get affected because of the grades "XX" and "FF" obtained by the student in
any of the courses.

For the students acquiring "II" grade (which is only a temporary grade) in any of the
courses, SPI, CPI shall be calculated only after make-up examination.

SPI once calculated shall never be modified.

B. Cumulative Performance Index (CPI):

An up-to-date assessment of the overall performance of a student for the courses from
the first semester onwards till completion of the program shall be obtained by
calculating an index called Cumulative Performance Index (CPI).

CPI is the weighted average of the grade points obtained in all the courses registered
by a student since the beginning of the first semester of the program.

∑𝑖 Ci g i
CPI =
∑𝑖 Ci

Where, summation is for all the courses registered by a student for all semester. CPI
shall also be calculated at the end of every semester and shall be rounded off to two
decimal places.

CPI shall reflect all courses undergone by a student including courses in which he/she
has failed. Thus, similar to SPI, "FF" and "XX" grade shall affect the CPI of a student.
23
 If a student is awarded with a pass-grade for a course in which he/she was awarded
previously "FF" or "XX" grade then, CPI shall be calculated by replacing
corresponding Ci and gi in both numerator and denominator of the above formula.
Thus, a course shall be included only once in CPI calculation. The latest performance
of a student in a course shall be considered for CPI.

3.7.6. PROCEDURE TO SHOW THEORY ESE ANSWER BOOKS

In order to introduce 100% transparency in evaluation system, UT1, UT2 and also ESE answer
books are shown to students.

i. The Answer book (AB) showing activity for ESE is carried out after the approval for
declaration of results in BoE meeting.
ii. After the ESE theory assessment and marks entry in prescribed format, the course
instructor shall submit the ESE mark list and he/she shall collect the answer books from
Exam Center for showing it to students.
iii. The DEC in consultation with DPC Chairperson shall prepare a time table for showing
the ABs to concerned students. The time table shall be displayed on the department notice
board and the same shall be submitted to Exam Center.
iv. The course instructor shall show the ABs to the students as per the schedule declared by
the DEC/DPC Chairperson.
v. The course instructor shall review the ABs based on the queries from students. He/she
shall keep record of attendance of students in this process.
vi. The course instructor shall submit the list of “change in ESE marks”, student attendance
sheet along with the ABs to Exam Center within stipulated time as decided by CoE.

3.7.7. ACADEMIC PROGRESS RULES (ATKT RULES)

a) A student shall register for the second and third semester of a program
irrespective of the number of credits earned by him/her in the first semester and second
semester respectively.
b) A student can register for the fourth semester of a program and undergo
dissertation phase III evaluation only if he/she has earned 75% of the credits of the
first year and has undergone dissertation phase I and Phase II evaluations.
However, if 75% calculation turns out to be a mixed number (integer + fraction)
then only the integer part of that number shall be considered for taking decision
related with this clause. Registration for the fourth semester of a program shall get
delayed by minimum one semester if a student fails to meet these criteria.

24
 c) A student shall undergo Dissertation Phase IV evaluations (ISE and ESE) only
after he/she earns all credits of the first, second and third semester of the program.
d) The opportunities for clearing backlogs may become available through regular
courses offered in respective semesters. The departmental program committee may
advice such students to register for the courses in which they have failed.
e) The maximum duration for getting M. Tech. degree shall be six semesters (three
academic years) from the date of admission. The maximum duration of the program
includes the period of withdrawal, absence and different kinds of leaves
permissible to a student but excludes the period of rustication of a student
from the institute. However, genuine cases on confirmation of valid reasons may
be referred to Academic Council for extending this limit by additional two semesters.
f) Depending upon the academic progress of a student, Academic Council may
take a decision regarding the continuation or discontinuation of his/her registration
with the institute.

3.7.8. SEMESTER GRADE REPORT

Semester grade report reflects the performance of a student in that semester
(SPI) and also his/her cumulative performance cumulated from the first
semester till that semester through CPI.

The semester grade card issued at the end of each semester to each student shall
contain the following.
 The credits for each course registered for that semester.

 Any audit course/s undertaken by a student in a Semester.

 The letter grade obtained in each course.

 The total number of credits earned by a student.

 SPI, CPI.

 A list of backlog courses, if any.

 Remarks regarding eligibility of registration for the next

semester.

Semester grade card shall not indicate class or division or rank however a
conversion from grade point index to percentage based on CPI shall be
indicated on the final grade card of the program.

25
 3.7.9. AWARD OF DEGREE

Following rules prevail for the award of degree.

i. A student has registered and passed all the prescribed courses under the general
institutional and departmental requirements.

ii. A student has obtained CPI ≥ 4.75.

iii. A student has paid all the institute dues and satisfied all the requirements prescribed.

iv. A student has no case of indiscipline pending against him/her.

obtain the passing grades in maximum of two theory courses provided he/she has
passed in all the other courses for the semester. If a student has failed in more than two
courses no grace marks will be applicable in any course.

vii. A grace of 1% of maximum CPI of 10 (maximum 0.1 CPI) is given to the student
only at 4th semester CPI if such a provision will help to secure the higher class i.e. to
secure minimum pass class (CPI 4.75, Second class, First class /First class with
Distinction). It is not given for any other reasons.

The formula for converting CPI into Percentage marks for CPI ≥ 4.75 can be obtained using
equation: Percentage marks = (CPI - 0.75) * 10

3.7.10. GRADE /CPI IMPROVEMENT POLICY FOR AWARD OF DEGREE

Students who have secured DD grade in a course in an odd semester or even semester in an
academic year can appear for supplementary/re-examination for the same academic year for
improvement of grade.

If a student applies for appearing for such supplementary/re-examination for a course, ISE and
UT1 and UT2 marks of the course shall be null and void. Also grades obtained in the course
during regular semester odd or even shall be null and void.

An opportunity shall be given to a student who has earned all the credits required by the
respective program with CPI greater than or equal to 4.00 but less than 4.75, to improve his/her
grade by allowing him/her to appear for 100% examinations of maximum two theory courses
of first and second semester. Such examinations shall be scheduled along with End Semester
Examinations of the subsequent semester. However, CPI shall be limited to 4.75 even though
the performance of a student as calculated through modified CPI becomes greater than 4.75.

3.7.11. GRADE IMOROVEMENT POLICY

Students who have secured DD grade in course in an odd semester or even semester in an
academic year (i.e. applicable to students of all M.Tech. class) can appear for such Grade
Improvement examination for the same academic year for improvement of grade. If a student
applies for appearing for such make-up examination for a course, ISE and UT1 and UT2 marks
of the course shall be null and void. Also grades obtained in the course during regular semester
odd or even shall be null and void. The result of such Grade Improvement examination will
be treated as final provided there is an improvement in grade or else his/her grade before
improvement will be considered for CPI/SPI calculation.

The student shall have to apply for such re-examination / supplementary (grade improvement)
examination within 10 days after the declaration of regular ESE result and have to pay
prescribed fees as examination fee along with undertaking in prescribed format.

27
3.7.12. CPIIMPROVEMENT AFTER COMPLETION OF PREREQUISITE
CREDITS FOR THE AWARD OF DEGREE

Students who secure CPI between 4.75 and 6.75 after completing the pre-requisite credits for
the award of degree, and wish to improve their CPI are permitted for CPI improvement. Such
students be permitted to withdraw their grade in a given course with poor grade and permitted
to reappear for the examinations for improving the grade and in turn CPI.

a) Student can appear for grade improvement examination within one year from the date
of passing his/her PG examination. He should not have taken (i) Leaving Certificate
from the Institute and ii) Degree from Shivaji University through convocation. He/she
will submit a written application to Dean Academics seeking his/her permission to
register for class improvement within one month from the date of declaration of result
or one week before the date of convocation of Shivaji University, Kolhapur whichever
is earlier. This application will be forwarded to Dean Academics through the Head of
the Department from where he/she has graduated. No student will be admitted once the
course registration process of that semester ends.

b) For grade improvement student will have to take maximum 3 courses in which he/she
has secured DD or CD grades from the same semester in one stretch.

c) Student can choose maximum three theory courses from a particular semester offered

 5. Anti-Ragging Committee
It is prestigious that RIT campus is free from ragging, but I want to remind you about the anti-
ragging affidavit signed by you and your parent and hoping you will act accordingly. It has
been rightly said that the end may not always justify the means. Behind the façade of
‘welcoming’ new students to college, ragging, in actuality, is a notorious practice wherein the
senior students get an excuse to harass their junior counterparts, and more often than not, make
them easy targets to satiate their own perverse sadistic pleasures. Apart from sustaining
grievous physical injuries, those unfortunate students who succumb to ragging either develop
a fear psychosis that haunts them throughout their lives, or worse, quit their college education
even before it begins. For any student who slogs day and night to secure admission into a
prestigious college, ragging can be his or her worst nightmare come true. It would not be an
exaggeration to say that, today, ragging has taken the shape of a serious human rights violation
with even the most respected and disciplined educational institutes falling prey to it.

How Ragging Affects the Victim

1. An unpleasant incident of ragging may leave a permanent scar in the victim’s mind that
may haunt him for years to come.
2. The victim declines into a shell, forcing himself into humiliation and alienation from the
rest of the world
3. It demoralizes the victim who joins college life with many hopes and expectations.
4. Though incidents of physical assault and grievous injuries are not new, ragging also
simultaneously causes grave psychological stress and trauma to the victim.
5. Those students who choose to protest against ragging are very likely to face isolation from
their seniors in the future.
6. Those who succumb to ragging may drop out; thereby obstructing their career prospects.
7. In extreme cases, incidents of suicides and homicide have also been reported.

How Ragging Affects the Victim’s Family

One can imagine the plight of a ragging victim’s family, especially his or her parents who see
their child suffering in pain and stress. Besides incurring medical and other incidental
expenses to rehabilitate their child, they also have to bear the trauma of seeing his or her
prospective career coming to an end.

How Ragging Affects the Educational Institution

1. Severe media barrage in extreme cases of ragging lowers the character of the educational
institution and destroys the respect and faith it commands from society.
2. Those who indulge in ragging bring a bad name to their college thereby hinder its
reputation and goodwill in society.

31
How Ragging Affects the Raggers
1. Ragging does not spare even its perpetrators. Those found guilty of ragging may be
suspended, blacklisted and even permanently expelled from college.
2. Raggers could be given rigorous imprisonment up to three years or a fine up to Rs.25000/-
, or both. The educational institutions may prescribe other punishments such as suspension
from classes, from the hostel, etc.
Anti-ragging Committee:
Anti-ragging committee headed by Honorable Director is taking care for making RIT
campus ragging free. Anti-ragging committee does following things for students:
 Arrange lectures to create awareness about anti-ragging rules and regulations.
 Addresses complaints received through complaint register or any other way.
 At the institution level anti-ragging squad has been formed. The squad frequently visits
places like hostels, canteen, library, play-ground, etc.
