The prominent features of the program are the process of continuous evaluation of a student’s performance and the flexibility to allow the student to progress at a pace suited to his/her individual ability, subject to the regulation of credit requirements. A student’s performance in a course is evaluation internally by the concerned faculty member and externally by the Office of the Controller of Examinations (COE).  In each term, the academic performance of the students will be judged through (a) continuous In-term Assessment and (b) End-term Examination.

Internal Evaluations

The mode of evaluation in a given course is decided by the concerned faculty who may assign varying weights to one or more of the evaluation modes and will announce such weights at the beginning of the course. The concerned faculty shall be responsible for the continuous in-term evaluations and will evaluate the academic performance of students in each course offered in any or a combination of:

• Written test
• Quizzes and oral test
• Workshop practices
• Assignments
• Term paper
• Project work
• Case studies, analysis and discussion
• Open Book test
• Class participation and
• Any other test deemed suitable by the concerned faculty member.

The in-term evaluation shall have in general a total weight of 60 percent.

End-term Examination

There will be an end-term examination in the courses offered during the term. The end-term examination may be based on problem-solving questions, analytical questions, and case studies or any other formats as demanded by a course.  

The first and the last trimester courses shall have a 60% weight on internal ongoing evaluation and a 40% weight on the external examinations. The end-term examinations of the first and the final trimesters shall be conducted by the COE. The college/school shall organize the evaluation of all courses under the close supervision and monitoring by the COE and the Office of the Dean. Detailed instructions to this effect will be issued by the Office of the Dean. The college/institute shall also be responsible for evaluating the Internship Project, graduate seminar, term papers, practicum, and the Graduate Research Project.
