Preface

Walchand College of Engineering, (WCE), Sangli is one of the oldest Engineering


colleges in India. The college was established with an objective to provide quality technical
education, research and training. WCE is now recognized and renowned college through its
contribution to technical education, designing, planning and execution of engineering projects
of national importance through its alumni. It has established a firm foundation for education
and research with a high-quality faculty and alumni base. The teaching-learning process is
student centric and governed by the concept of outcome based education.
This booklet gives comprehensive information on the existing rules and regulations
for M. Tech. programmes of all branches. All postgraduate programmes will be governed by
these rules and regulations. The various departments are given a direction to excel in
academics through these rules and regulations approved by the academic council from time to
time, keeping in view the ever growing challenges and new developments. The stakeholders
particularly the students, and parents/guardians, are advised to be fully familiar with the
academic system of the college. Students should know the rules and regulations governing
academic requirements, evaluation system, and grading system. These rules and regulations
related to academics evolved over the period of time, after the college was awarded
autonomy in 2007 by UGC. These rules are also changed from time to time as per the
directives of UGC, AICTE and also by studying the rules of other reputed autonomous
institutes. It is expected that this booklet will bring the transparency in the functioning of the
college related with academics amongst students, faculty members, administrator, parents and
other stakeholders. WCE, Sangli has student oriented academic system, every possible
opportunity is provided to progress academically, and overall development of the students is
ensured.

9.20 A common rubric shall be developed to assess seminar and dissertation for each
programme. The rubric for the laboratory course shall be developed by the concerned
course coordinator. A course coordinator is the teacher who conducts the relevant
theory course or as decided by the DPGC.

10 THE GRADING SYSTEM

10.1 Students shall be assigned a grade based on combined (ISE+ESE) and ESE performance
in all components of evaluation/examination scheme of a course as per the structure.
The grade indicates an assessment of the student’s performance and shall be associated
with equivalent number called a ‘grade point’. The performance of the student as per
the grade point on a 0-10 scale shall further fall into a letter grading system as shown in
Table 10.1.

Table 10.1: Grade points

Letter Grade Grade point Description


AA 10 Outstanding
AB 9 Excellent
BB 8 Very good
BC 7 Good
CC 6 Average
CD 5 Below average
DD 4 Marginal
FF 0 Fail due to poor performance
XX1 0 Fail due to attendance shortage
XX2 0 Fail due to disciplinary action
PP (only for 0 Passed
non-credit
audit courses)
NP (only for 0 Not passed
non-credit
courses)

An ‘AA’ grade stands for outstanding achievement relative to the class. The CC’ grade
stands for average performance and it refers to ‘average’ as per course teacher’s
expectations in a holistic sense and is not based on the class average. The ‘DD’ grade
stands for marginal performance and is the minimum passing grade. The ‘FF’ grade
denotes poor performance. A student who obtains FF grade in any course shall either
appear for make-up examination or re-register for the course/s, till a passing grade is
obtained.

The ‘XX1’grade denotes failure of student due to shortage of minimum attendance


(less than 50% of the total hours engaged for that course) and not satisfactory
performance in laboratory course.

The ‘XX2’grade denotes failure of student due to disciplinary action.

A student who obtains ‘XX1/XX2’ grade in any course has to necessarily re-register
for the course in the subsequent semesters until a passing grade is obtained. Such
students shall not be allowed to appear for makeup examination.

97
Walchand College of Engineering, Sangli

10.2 Relative grading is applicable to courses where the number of students registered is
greater than or equal to 15.

10.3 The concerned faculty shall use ISE 1, ISE 2, MSE and ESE marks to decide the total
marks. The marks of each mode of evaluation shall be up-to one decimal place and
shall not be rounded. The total of ISE 1, ISE 2, MSE and ESE will be computed and
rounded to the nearest higher integer.

10.4 A student will be given maximum of two grace marks per course to obtain passing
grade in maximum of two courses provided he/she has passed in all other courses for
that semester. If a student has failed in more than two courses, no grace marks will be
applicable in any course.

10.5 The grace marks shall be applicable only to regular students and shall not be
applicable to any re-registered student in a course.

10.6 FF grade shall be assigned to a student in a theory course in the following cases;

i. Sum of marks obtained by the student in ISE1, ISE2, MSE, ESE, and
grace (if any) is less than 40.

ii. Marks obtained in ESE are less than 20.

10.7 FF grade shall be assigned in a laboratory course to a student who shall get less than
40% marks in ESE. XX1 grade shall be assigned in a laboratory course to a student
obtaining less than 40% marks in ISE.

10.8 In the further grading process, the failed students shall be excluded.

10.9 Then, the mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ) of total marks of passed students shall
be computed. From these, the relative grading thresholds shall be decided with the use
of Tables 10.2 and 10.3 for theory and lab./ proj./ mini-proj /seminar respectively.

Table 10.2: Relative grading thresholds for theory credit courses

Table 10.3: Thresholds for Lab./ Proj./ Mini-Proj /Seminar

Walchand College of Engineering, Sangli

10.10 After the relative grade thresholds are calculated, the faculty shall check the histogram
of the grades and adjust the thresholds to get nearly bell shaped histogram.

10.11 After this the faculty shall get the grade thresholds, approved from GMC. After
approval, the faculty shall lock the grade thresholds.

10.12 The faculty then shall review the boundary cases for each grade and may assign max
+1 grace (ISE) mark to those boundary cases. This shall not change the grade
boundaries.

10.13 The grades shall be calculated as per the Tables 10.2 and 10.3 and assigned to each
student.

10.14 The faculty shall prepare the grade sheet, verify it, sign on it, get the signature of the
GMC and handover the grade sheet to the HoD.

10.15 HoD shall receive grade sheets of all courses of the department from respective
faculty, verify them, and approve it and display the class wise provisional result on
the departmental notice board.

10.16 Absolute grading is applicable to courses where the number of students registered for
a course is less than 15. Allocation of grace marks shall be same as mentioned in 10.6.

The thresholds for absolute grading are given in Tables 10.4 and 10.5.

Table 10.4: Absolute grading thresholds for credit course

Grade Min Threshold Max Threshold


FF ≥0 < 40
DD ≥ 40 < 45
CD ≥ 45 < 50
CC ≥ 50 < 60
BC ≥ 60 < 70
BB ≥ 70 < 80
AB ≥ 80 < 90
AA ≥ 90 ≤100

Grade Min Threshold Max Threshold


NP ≥0 < 40
PP ≥ 40 ≤100

CPI shall be calculated as per absolute grading system for the students switched over
from university pattern to autonomous pattern.

10.17 Makeup Examination

i. There shall be a makeup examination for all courses (theory and laboratory)
once in a year. The makeup examination for an academic year shall be
conducted before the commencement of an odd semester of the next academic
year.

ii. The students failed in an odd semester and/or even semester in


theory/laboratory credit course in an academic year shall be allowed to appear
for a makeup examination for the same academic year. A student failed in an
audit course shall have to re-register for the course/equivalent course,
whenever it is offered in subsequent semester/s.
iii. Also the students, who have secured DD or CD grade in a course in an odd
semester or even semester in an academic year and applied for grade
improvement, can appear for such makeup examination for the same academic
year. Students with XX1/XX2 grade in a course shall not be allowed to appear
for makeup examination of that course in that year.

iv. If a student applies for appearing for such makeup examination for a theory
course, the MSE, ISE 1 and ISE 2 marks of the course shall be null and void.
Also grade obtained in the course during regular odd or even semester
examination shall be null and void.

v. The makeup examination for a theory course shall be of 100 marks and based
on all modules in the syllabus with equal weightage to each module. The
question paper shall not have any options (no internal options also).

vi. ISE component of student performance in regular semester for a laboratory


course shall be retained and makeup examination shall be conducted for ESE
component either with oral/performance and oral as per examination scheme
of that course.

vii. For makeup examination absolute grading shall be used and Table 10.4 shall
be applied for deciding grades.

viii. The evaluated answer books of makeup examination shall be shown to


students.

ix. Grace marks shall not be awarded for makeup examination.

x. If the student fails to clear the course, even in make-up examination, he/she
has to re-register for the course whenever it is offered and undergo all the
modes of evaluations afresh.

Academic Documents for M.Tech. Electrical Control System Engineering


100
Walchand College of Engineering, Sangli

xi. There shall not be any other re-examination for makeup examination for what
so ever reason.

10.18 Revaluation

A provision of addressing grievance by a student in evaluation of his/her answer book


for a course/s in ESE and makeup examination is made in terms of revaluation. If
student is not satisfied with the evaluation of his/her answer books in ESE and
makeup examination, he/she may apply for revaluation by paying prescribed fee after
the declaration of result. If the marks awarded in the paper before and after
revaluation vary by 10% or more of the maximum marks assigned to that paper, then
marks after revaluation shall be accepted for the revision of result. However,
irrespective of what is stated above, the marks obtained after revaluation shall be
accepted if the candidate gets the benefit of passing the examination. In any case
revaluation fee shall not be refunded.

10.19 The grade “PP” (Passed)/ “NP” (Not Passed) shall be awarded for audit courses
depending upon the performance of a student evaluated by the faculty in-charge. 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.

10.20 Transfer of credits

In order to provide opportunity to students for studying in different learning


environment, normally first year students in second semester can be sent to other
reputed autonomous institutes for one semester under credit transfer. Students can
avail credit transfer from other autonomous colleges for one semester provided the
curriculum of both the colleges have same minimum three core courses in that
semester. The remaining courses in that semester of that institute can be taken as
professional electives. Grades obtained by such credit students from that institute will
be suitably transferred to the grade card of WCE after approval from CoE, Dean
Academics and Director. Such credit transfer is mutually possible from both
institutes.

10.21 CPI improvement

i. A student in second year and student who has passed M. Tech. shall be
permitted to apply for CPI improvement provided his/her CPI is less than 6.50
(for students admitted before 2014-15)/6.75 (for students admitted after 2014-
15) by the end of first/second year. Such students may apply for CPI
improvement by registering for the course/s, in which the student has obtained
DD/CD grade, of first year.
ii. Re-registration should be done as per schedule in academic calendar.
iii. A student who has passed M. Tech. shall apply for CPI improvement within
15 days after declaration of makeup examination result. He/she shall re-
register for the course/s of first year in which the student wants to apply for
grade improvement. Such students shall return all the concerned original grade
cards to CoE.
