Integrated courses (IC), combining theory with practical components.
(i) Theory sessions shall be conducted for 3 hours per week, while the practical sessions shall be conducted for 2 hours per week.
(ii)Theory components shall be evaluated through both Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) and Semester End Examination (SEE).
(iii)The practical component shall be assessed only through CIE.
The Mathematics/Physics courses shall be taught by a single faculty member per session, with no sharing of the course (subject) modules.
The tutorial sessions for the mathematics course shall be conducted in the laboratory environment using Maxima/Mathematica/ Python/Scilab/MATLAB software to enhance
computational understanding and application skills (one hour for problem solving and one hour laboratory session).
All students admitted to the engineering program have to complete Applied Mathematics-I and Applied Mathematics-II in I and II semesters by selecting the courses prescribed for
2
 27.08.2025/V9/HLKM/final/Visvesvaraya Technological University, Belagavi

their stream, viz. CV, ME, EEE or CSE, under the heading Mathematics –I and Mathematics-II.
Those who have completed the physics course under the heading Applied Physics in I semester have to select the prescribed stream wise chemistry course under the heading Applied
chemistry during II semester.

Programme Specific Courses (PSC): Programme Specific Courses (PSC) are a set of core courses tailored to a specific branch or discipline of engineering in which a student is enrolled (e.g., Mechanical
Engineering, Computer Science, Civil Engineering, etc.). These courses are intended to provide students with in-depth knowledge and specialized skills essential for professional competence in the chosen
field. Students must select and complete the course from this group that corresponds to their admitted program stream. Similarly, students are also required to choose and pass laboratory courses
that are specific to their stream from the Programme Specific Courses Laboratory (PSCL) group.
Engineering Sciences Courses-I(ESC-I): These courses are designed to broaden the technical knowledge of students beyond their core area of study. These courses enable students to
gain a foundational understanding of engineering principles from other stream courses. Students are required to select and complete two courses that are not belong to their admitted
program stream. For example, a student admitted to the any programme of the Civil Engineering stream should not select Introduction to Building Sciences but any other two. One
course shall be selected under ESC-I and another course under ESC-II. The two courses must be different from the other.
Computer-Aided Engineering Drawing: The courses under this category are stream-specific. Students must select and complete the course that corresponds to their admitted
engineering stream.
The Student Induction Programme (SIP), initiated by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), is designed to help newly admitted students in technical institutions transition smoothly into
the higher education environment. It aims to familiarize students with the institutional culture, foster connections with peers and faculty, and provide a foundation for holistic learning. Activities under
SIP may include Physical Activities, Creative Arts, Universal Human Values, Literary Events, Proficiency Modules. Lectures shall be by Eminent Personalities, Local Area Visits, Department/Branch
Familiarization, and Innovation-related sessions.
The first year of the Engineering programmes is composed of I semester, II semester and Summer Semester. SIP activities shall be scheduled in the afternoon sessions during the first week of class
commencement of I and II semesters only.
The specific programmes to be conducted will be notified separately by the University via the academic calendar or through a separate notification.
AICTE Activity Points Requirement for BE/B.Tech. Programmes
As per AICTE guidelines (refer Chapter 6 – AICTE Activity Point Program, Model Internship Guidelines), in addition to academic requirements, students must earn a specified number of Activity Points to
be earned is to be eligible for the award of their degree.
• Regular students admitted to a 4-year degree program must earn 100 Activity Points.
• Lateral entry students (joining from the second year) must earn 75 Activity Points.
• Students transferred from other universities directly into the fifth semester must earn 50 Activity Points from the date of entry into VTU.
These Activity Points are non-credit and will not be considered for the SGPA/CGPA or be used for vertical progression. However, they are mandatory for the award of the degree, and the points
earned will be reflected on the eighth semester Grade Card.
The hours spent for earning the activity points shall not be counted for regular attendance requirements. Students can accumulate these points at any time during their program, including on weekends,
holidays, and vacations starting from the year of admission, provided they meet the minimum hours of engagement prescribed for each activity.
If a student fails to earn the required Activity Points, the eighth-semester Grade Card will be withheld until the requirement is fulfilled. Consequently, the degree will be awarded only after the Grade Card
has been released.

The Mathematics/Chemistry courses shall be taught by a single faculty member per session, with no sharing of the course (subject) modules. The tutorial
sessions for the mathematics course shall be conducted in the laboratory environment using Maxima/Mathematica/ Python/Scilab/MATLAB software to enhance
computational understanding and application skills.
Students admitted to a specific engineering stream are required to select and successfully complete Applied Mathematics-II and Applied Chemistry courses that are
aligned to their program stream.
Engineering Sciences Courses-II(ESC-II): These courses are designed to broaden the technical knowledge of students beyond their core area of study. These courses enable
students to gain a foundational understanding of engineering principles from other disciplines. Students are required to select and complete a course under ESC-II that does
not belong to their admitted program stream. Students should select a course other than that was selected under ESC-I and other than course not belonging to their stream.

For the course Interdisciplinary Project (BPRJ259), it is mandatory to form a team comprising students from multiple engineering disciplines. For example, a project team
may include students from Mechanical Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE), and Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), working
collaboratively to design and implement the project.
