Term Work
Term work shall consist of at least six assignments covering complete syllabus. One group
seminar by maximum 3 members in a group on topic relevant to syllabus contents
The distribution of marks for term work shall be as follows:
Assignments:
: 10 marks
Seminar
: 10 marks
Attendance (Theory & Practicals)
: 05 marks
The final certification and acceptance of term work ensures the satisfactory performance of
laboratory work and minimum passing in the term work.

Internal Assessment
Assessment consists of two tests out of which; one should be compulsory class test (on
minimum 40% of curriculum) and the other is either a class test (on minimum 70% of
curriculum) or assignment on live problems or course project.

Theory Examination
In question paper weightage of each module will be proportional to number of
respective lecture hours as mention in the syllabus.
1. Question paper will comprise of 6 questions, each carrying 20 marks.
2. Question number 1 will be compulsory and based on maximum contents of the
syllabus
3. Remaining questions will be mixed in nature (for example, if Q.2 has part (a) from
module 3 then part (b) will be from other than module 3)
4. Total four questions need to be solved.
