Structure and Pattern The content of the programme is divided into a number of theory, theory plus practical and Project Courses.

1.THEORY COURSES The theory courses are of 4 CP (Credit Point). Each course is having its own types of question set depending upon the need of the aspects of individual subjects and it is mentioned in the syllabus. The duration of the end examination (EE) for 4 CP shall be 180 minutes and maximum marks shall be 80. Continuous Assessment: It will consist of 4 sets of Assignments (20marks each) thus for 80 marks. The marks obtained in these assignments will be converted into 20 marks. Total Marks per Subject: 100. A student will need to pass in the combined aggregate of the CA and EE by securing minimum 40 marks our of the total 100 marks (CA+EE) There will not be any repeater examination for the CA. A student failing in CA but passing in the total out of 100 shall be deemed to have successfully completed the course. Such students, like any other students, may improvise their score in the course by reappearing in the EE as a repeater.

2.THEORY CUM PRACTICAL COURSES The theory cum practical course have two passing heads: (a) Theory Component (4 CP, total 100 Marks, 80M for EE and 20 M for CA) (b) Practical Component (2 CP, Total 50 M)

A student will need to pass in the theory component and Practical component independently. A person who secures more than 40 % marks in Total 150 Marks but fails in Theory Component will be treated as having failed in the given T+Pr course. Such a student must appear in the theory component EE and secure such marks that his aggregate in the theory component is better than 40%. Similarly a student not securing more than or equal to 40% Marks in practical shall be declared unsuccessful and will have to reappear as a repeater in the practical component as per the rule.
