Programme in Chemical Engineering, University of Calcutta
These additional regulations (with effect from the academic year 2019–2020) are
supplementary to the “General Regulation” for 4 Year 8-Semester B.Tech. course (with effect
from the academic year 2018–2019). Details of Syllabi of each paper will be given separately.
The whole Curriculum is divided into two parts: (1) Additional Regulations and Course structure,
and (2) Syllabi. In case of any exigency, resolution of the Departmental Committee (DC) and
Board of Studies (BOS) should be referred to.
Semester – I and II (under General Regulation) covers total 43 credits.
Semester – III to VIII covers total 117 credits.
In order to qualify for the B.Tech. degree in Chemical Engineering, a student is required to
complete a total of 160 credits satisfactorily and CGPA will be calculated based on 160
credits only.
Above mentioned, 117 credits for Semester – III to VIII include papers under compulsory
Professional Electives (Appendix I) and Open Electives (Appendix II).
Additional 20 credits may be earned through the MOOCs. MOOCs will be notified to the
students from time to time as approved by the Departmental Committee (DC)/Board of Studies
(BOS). If a candidate earns additional 20 credits through MOOCs, as mentioned above, he/she
will be considered passed “B.Tech. with Honours” and the Final mark sheet (of Semester–VIII)
should indicate the MOOC courses completed by him/her. Certificates of completion of courses
through MOOCs are essential without which credits earned through MOOCs will not be
mentioned in the mark sheet/ certificate and the term “Honours” will not be appended
subsequently.
Theoretical Papers
Each theoretical paper (of any credit) will be evaluated based on 100 marks of which 70
marks is for End-Semester Examination (of 3 hours duration) and 30 marks for Continuous
Sessional Evaluation.
There will be at least 2 (two) paper-setters (internal) for each theoretical paper for End-
Semester Examination and the answer scripts will be examined by at least two Examiners
(Internal). Each question paper shall consist of 4 (four) compulsory sections giving equal
