OUTLINES OF CHOICE BASED CREDIT SYSTEM

1. INTRODUCTION:
The University Grants Commission (UGC) has initiated several measures to bring equity, efficiency and
excellence in the Higher Education System of country. The important measures taken to enhance academic
standards and quality in higher education include innovation and improvements in curriculum, teaching-
learning process, examination and evaluation systems, besides governance and other matters.
The UGC has formulated various regulations and guidelines from time to time to improve the higher
education system and maintain minimum standards and quality across the Higher Educational Institutions
(HEIs) in India. The academic reforms recommended by the UGC in the recent past have led to overall
improvement in the higher education system. However, due to lot of diversity in the system of higher
education, there are multiple approaches followed by universities towards examination, evaluation and
grading system. While the HEIs must have the flexibility and freedom in designing the examination and
evaluation methods that best fits the curriculum, syllabic and teaching–learning methods, there is a need to
devise a sensible system for awarding the grades based on the performance of students. Presently the
performance of the students is reported using the conventional system of marks secured in the examinations
or grades or both. The conversion from marks to letter grades and the letter grades used vary widely across
the HEI in the country. This creates difficulty for the academia and the employers to understand and infer the
performance of the students graduating from different universities and colleges based on grades.
The grading system is considered to be better than the conventional marks system and hence it has been
followed in the top institutions in India and abroad.

PROSPECTUS -2022-2023 PAGE - 20

So it is desirable to introduce uniform grading system. This will facilitate student mobility across
institutions within and across countries and also enable potential employers to assess the performance of
students. To bring in the desired uniformity, in grading system and method for computing the cumulative
grade point average (CGPA) based on the performance of students in the examinations, the UGC has
formulated these guidelines.

What is Choice Based Credit System (CBCS)?

• A “cafeteria” type approach in which the students can
– take courses of their choice,
– learn at their own pace,
– undergo additional courses,
– acquire more than the required credits, and
– adopt an interdisciplinary approach to learning.
• Transformation from the traditional teacher-centered education to a student-centered education.
• CBCS provides greater flexibility with multiple exits, multiple pathways, vertical mobility.

Why CBCS?
• The main objectives of CBCS are:
– To provide broad based education;
– To provide students with greater flexibility in choice of courses;
– To provide students multi-disciplinary curriculum;
– To enable students to choose courses at basic/advanced level/inter-disciplinary;
– To enable students to acquire job oriented skills;
– To enable students to progress at their own pace;
– To enable highly motivated students gain extra credits; and
– To Bridge the gap between professional and social exposure to provide a holistic education.

Importance of CBCS in the Process of Learning

• Choice enables a learner to pursue any area of knowledge domain depending upon his
/ her interest.
• Choice also widens the horizon of learner’s intellectual insight.
• Rigidity of present system does not allow pursuit of areas of interest as well as widening the
educational horizon of the learner, and
Provision of choice is an essential condition for broad-based learner’s profile across areas of knowledge

3. Definitions of Key Words in CBCS:

1. Academic Year: Two consecutive (one odd + one even) semesters constitute one academic year.

2. Semester: Each semester will consist of 15-18 weeks of academic work equivalent to 90 actual teaching
days. The odd semester may be scheduled from July to December and even semester from January to June.

3. Programme: An educational programme leading to award of a Degree, diploma or certificate.

PROSPECTUS -2022-2023 PAGE - 21

4. Course: Usually referred to, as ‘papers’ is a component of a programme. All courses need not carry the
same weight. The courses should define learning objectives and learning outcomes. A course may be
designed to comprise lectures/ tutorials/laboratory work/ field work/ outreach activities/ project work/
vocational training/viva/ seminars/ term papers/assignments/ presentations/ self-study etc. or a
combination of some of these.

5. Choice Based Credit System (CBCS): The CBCS provides choice for students to select from the
prescribed courses (core, elective or minor or soft skill courses).

6. Credit Based Semester System (CBSS): Under the CBSS, the requirement for awarding a degree or
diploma or certificate is prescribed in terms of number of credits to be completed by the students.

7. Credit: A unit by which the course work is measured. It determines the number of hours of instructions
required per week. One credit is equivalent to one hour of teaching (lecture or tutorial) or two hours of
practical work/field work per week.

8. Grade Point: It is a numerical weight allotted to each letter grade on a 10-point scale.

9. Credit Point: It is the product of grade point and number of credits for a course.

10. Letter Grade: It is an index of the performance of students in a said course. Grades are denoted by
letters O, A+, A, B+, B, C, P and F.

11. Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA): It is a measure of performance of work done in a semester.
It is ratio of total credit points secured by a student in various courses registered in a semester and the total
course credits taken during that semester. It shall be expressed up to two decimal places.

12. Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA): It is a measure of overall cumulative performance of a
student over all semesters. The CGPA is the ratio of total credit points secured by a student in various
courses in all semesters and the sum of the total credits of all courses in all the semesters. It is expressed
up to two decimal places.

13. Transcript or Grade Card or Certificate: Based on the grades earned, a grade certificate shall be
issued to all the registered students after every semester. The grade certificate will display the course
details (code, title, number of credits, grade secured) along with SGPA of that semester and CGPA earned
till that semester.

Courses under Choice Based Credit System:

1. Core Course (C): A course, which should compulsorily be studied by a candidate as a core
requirement is termed as a Core course.
2. Elective Course: Generally a course which can be chosen from a pool of courses and which may be
very specific or specialized or advanced or supportive to the discipline/ subject of study or which provides an
extended scope or which enables an exposure to some other discipline/subject/domain or nurtures the
candidate’s proficiency/skill is called an Elective Course.
2.1 Discipline Specific Elective (DSE) Course: Elective courses may be offered by the main
discipline/subject of study is referred to as Discipline Specific Elective. The University/Institute may also
offer discipline related Elective courses of interdisciplinary nature (to be offered by main discipline/subject
of study).

PROSPECTUS -2022-2023 PAGE - 22

2.2 Dissertation/Project: An elective course designed to acquire special/advanced knowledge, such as
supplement study/support study to a project work, and a candidate studies such a course on his own with an
advisory support by a teacher/faculty member is called dissertation/project. 2.3 Generic Elective (GE)
Course: An elective course chosen generally from an unrelated discipline/subject, with an intention to seek
exposure is called a Generic Elective.P.S.: A core course offered in a discipline/subject may be treated as an
elective by other discipline/subject and vice versa and such electives may also be referred to as Generic
Elective.
3. Ability Enhancement Courses (AEC): The Ability Enhancement (AE) Courses may be of two kinds:
Ability Enhancement Compulsory Courses (AECC) and Skill Enhancement Courses (SEC). “AECC”
courses are the courses based upon the content that leads to Knowledge enhancement; i. Environmental
