purpose of classification of degree. For all the above mentioned classification of Degree,

the break of study during the programme, will be counted for the purpose of

classification of degree.

6 A candidate can apply for revaluation of his/her semester examination answer paper in a

theory course, within 1 week from the declaration of results, on payment of a prescribed fee

along with prescribed application to the Controller of Examinations through the Head of

Department. The Controller of Examination will arrange for the revaluation and the result will

be intimated to the candidate concerned through the Head of the Department. Revaluation is

not permitted for practical courses and for project work.

Final Degree is awarded based on the following:

CGPA 9.0 - First Class - Exemplary

CGPA 7.50 < 9.0 - First Class with Distinction

CGPA 6.00 < 7.50 - First Class

CGPA 5.00 < 6.00 - Second Class

A minimum CGPA requirement for award of Degree is 5.0 CGPA. 9. Discipline

Every student is required to observe disciplined and decorous behaviour both inside and outside the

University and not to indulge in any activity which will tend to bring down the prestige of the

University. If a student indulges in malpractice in any of the University theory / practical examination,

he/she shall be liable for punitive action as prescribed by the University from time to time. 10. Revision of Regulations and Curriculum

The University may revise, amend or change the regulations, scheme of examinations and syllabi from time to time, if found necessary.
