Part III
Academic Regulations
3.1 General
3.1.1 These regulations apply to all the under graduate programs of the University.
3.1.2 Every Academic Year shall be divided into two semesters known as the Odd (First) Semester and
the Even (Second) Semester, and a term (known as Summer Term).
3.1.3 The Student Handbook for each program provides general information on the operational features of
the program and the students’ conduct on the campus. However, the same would not be a substitute
of the Academic Regulations.
3.1.4 The entry qualification for the undergraduate programs is a pass at the 10+2 with an appropriate
percentage in aggregate as may be prescribed for each program. Students, whose 10+2 results have
not been declared at the time of admission, are given Provisional Admission to the Program. The
admission is subject to their submitting proof of clearing the prescribed eligibility criteria for
admission on or before the specified date for each program. If a provisionally admitted student fails
to submit the proof of completion of the above criteria on or before the specified date, his/her
admission to the program shall stand cancelled and the student will cease to be on the rolls of
University and will not be permitted to participate in any activity of the University.
3.1.5 The prescribed program is defined as the whole series of courses required of students that unfold as
a package of courses in the requisite number of semesters. The prescribed semester courses are
those that appear in each of these semesters. Each course is a defined module of knowledge in the
area specified through the course content.
3.1.6 The program of studies leading to the award of a degree consists of the prescribed courses
sequentially distributed over the required number of semesters known as Semester-wise Pattern.
Each program has a normal duration indicated either in the Student Handbook or prescribed by an
appropriate authority. The eligibility for a degree is determined on the basis of number of courses or
units completed. While the regulation stipulates certain minimum number of units for each program,
for actual requirement of any program the Student Handbook or appropriate authority has to be
consulted.
3.1.7 A unit is a convenient device to anticipate the number of hours per week of the total effort a student
has to put in a course, including the class work. The total number of hours of work per week for
each unit is approximately three. Each course is associated with a number of units.
23
3.2.3 For each program the number of electives required to be taken by a student will be prescribed
through the Student Handbook.
3.2.4 Once a student is declared to have fulfilled the requirements of graduation except Internship
Program II and/or Thesis-Seminar, he/shecannot stay back to take any additional electives.
3.2.5 The courses in each program, outside the elective category are defined as named courses, since they
have already been specified in the semester-wise patterns given in the Student Handbook. The
electives are, on the other hand, selected by the student himself from outside the named courses in
his program.
3.2.6 The structure contains a category of courses, such as Internship Program (IP) or Thesis-Seminar
(TS), which attempts a synthesis of preceding courses as well as their applications. They carry large
number of units and are to be exclusively pursued full-time throughout the allotted period. There is
no provision for taking any other courses along with these courses.
3.2.7 The semester-wise pattern, consisting of the prescribed courses sequentially distributed over the
required number of semesters, leads to the particular degree. This contains a prescribed number of
courses in each semester, planned for an anticipated normal progress through the program. This
number is called the normal load for that semester of the program.
3.3 Registration
3.3.1 As described earlier, every student admitted to the Institution must pursue the prescribed degree
program consisting of a set of courses in successive semesters. Due to various structural flexibilities
provided, the semester courses are not always predetermined. One of the objectives of the
registration process is to specify the courses at the beginning of each semester after allowing for the
students’ options and working out the permissible details within the limits prescribed by the rules
and the announced Timetable for the semester.
3.3.2 Registration for the semester for every student, whether newly admitted or already on rolls will be at
the beginning of every semester on the dates announced. Every student is required to register for his
semester program and to get his registration completed properly is his own responsibility, failing
which he shall not be permitted to attend any classes or use any facilities of the Institute during that
semester. The first registration in a semester for a student is called the original registration.
3.3.3 A student is not permitted to register in a semester/term, if
i) The student has dues outstanding to the Institution, hostel, or any recognized organ of the
Institution.
ii) The student’s grade sheet in the immediately preceding semester is withheld.
iii) The student has an Incomplete (I) report in the immediately preceding semester.
iv) The student has been specifically asked to stay away from that semester.
v) The student has failed to convert the provisional admission into a regular admission by the
specified date.
3.3.4 Registration in certain courses, like IP, may be permitted even if the result of the preceding semester
is not available due to small gap between the end of the previous semester and the start of the IP, but
the same will be subject to cancellation without notice if the student is found to be defaulting from
any of the conditions of clause 3.03, discovered later.
24
3.3.5 Certain courses have prerequisite conditions attached to them. Before registering in a course, the
student should have fulfilled the prerequisite conditions. If the prerequisite is a course then the
student should have a valid grade, not a report, in the prerequisite course.
3.3.6 A specified prior preparation is required for certain courses or a group of courses. These
requirements are described in the respective handbook for each program.
3.3.7 A student may at his own responsibility depart from his prescribed semester courses (PSC), when
feasible and permissible in these regulations. A student with an intelligent understanding of these
rules can make a plan to graduate earlier or later than the normal time.
3.3.8 A student departs from his PSC whenever, (i) he repeats a course he had already cleared before the
PSC (ii) takes a course which appears later than the PSC (iii) drops a course from PSC (iv) takes a
course from backlog (v) decides to take the electives earlier or later than where they are located in
his program.
3.3.9 If a student has backlog, that is the named courses of the preceding PSC’s not cleared by him, then
while registering he should register first for all those backlog courses which are available in that
semester and have no timetable clash. Electives are not included in the package of backlog courses.
3.3.10 If the Institute facilities permit, a student who is still in the process of completing the requirement of
a degree, may, at his own option, repeat, with a view to improving his grade, a course which he has
already cleared, provided the course is currently being offered. A student can repeat a course
provided he does not have any backlog. He may be allowed to repeat a course only after the full
component of backlog courses and the full component of PSC has been registered for in the
semester. A student cannot stay back after completing the requirements of graduation only to repeat
courses. The courses like IP, TS, and project courses cannot be repeated except when the Academic
Counseling Committee (ACC) requires a student to register again.
3.3.11 Registering in a course that appears later than the PSC is possible only after the full component of
backlog, if any, and the full component of the PSC has been registered for in the semester.
3.3.12 With a view of planning his entire quota of courses under the category of electives, a student may,
at his own responsibility, delay or advance taking the electives with reference to their prescribed
appearance in the semester-wise pattern.
3.3.13 In an unusual circumstance, the Director/Principal may permit late registration of a student. A
student whose request for late registration has been accepted will be permitted to register on the
specified date, normally one week from the date of original registration, on payment of such late
fees as may be prescribed from time to time. Further extension of time will not be granted. Students
requesting for late registration will have to apply for the permission prior to the date of original
registration.
3.3.14 The registration in a semester, when altered at the initiative of a student will be called an amended
registration and will be covered by the conditions listed below.
i) Any time within two weeks from the beginning of the semester, a student may request for
substitution of a course, in which he has already registered, by another course being offered
during that semester.
ii) If a student desires to withdraw from a course, he may submit a formal application for
withdrawal from the course within ten weeks from the beginning of the semester.
25
iii) In exceptional circumstances, a student may be permitted to completely withdraw from all
courses and drop the semester when the Director/Principal is satisfied as to the genuineness of
the circumstances.
iv) A student who has came under the purview of ACC ceases to have any initiatives in the
amendment of his original registration. When any alteration in the original registration is called
for, it will be done entirely at the discretion of the ACC.
3.3.15 The revision of original/amended registration can be caused by concerned authority any time during
the semester/term as per the details listed below.
i) If the registration of a student in a course is found to be not in accordance with the regulations,
his registration in that course will be cancelled and the grade obtained, if any, will be rejected.
ii) The registration of a student in a course or completed set of courses in a semester can be
revised through the instrument of RC by the concerned authority, when the student is found
guilty in cases of unfair means, breach of discipline, etc., or when he persistently and
deliberately does not clear his dues.,
iii) Concerned authority may cause a revision of registration already done by cancelling
registration in all courses, when the student ceases to be on the rolls of the Institute by his own
action or by the action of the Institute.
iv) ACC may cause a revision of registration already done of a student who is under its purview.
v) Concerned authority may cause a revision of registration already done by cancellation of the
IP option through the instrument of RRA/DP .
vi) The registration already done may be revised by the concerned authority by allowing a student
to register in additional courses or by canceling the registration of a course in which the student
has already registered, when the situation warrants.
3.3.16 A student is considered to be on the rolls of the institute for a semester if he,
(i) is duly registered in the semester
(ii) has been permitted, after registration, to withdraw from the semester
(iii) has been given prior permission to stay away for the semester
(iv) has been asked to stay away from the Institute for the semester.
3.3.17 When a student, who has been permitted to stay away from the Institute for a semester or more,
comes back, his subsequent program would be normally governed by the then current academic
structure and regulations.
3.3.18 When a student fails to register in a semester without any prior permission to stay away, his name
would be struck off the rolls of the Institute and he would no longer be a student of the Institute. His
case will be closed. If, however, such a person, after his name has been struck off the rolls of the
Institute, is permitted to come back, his case can be treated as in the clause 3.3.17 above with the
provision that all his previous records as a former student are revived under the current structure,
regulations and schedule of fees.
26
Classroom instruction helps the student in the organization and correlation of facts, comprehension
of ideas and the creative use of knowledge.
3.4.2 The teacher also has the added responsibility to make the student search for knowledge on his own
and induce him to use additional facilities like the library, laboratory and the environment, to
optimize his learning process. Self-study by the student would therefore form an important factor in
the planning of teaching and evaluation. The student is required to cooperate and respond to this
challenge.
3.4.3 Every course whether single-section or multi-section is conducted by a member of the faculty called
instructor-in-charge, with the assistance, wherever necessary, of the required number of instructors
who will be partners with him in meeting the full academic perceptions and organizational needs of
teaching the course and evaluating the students. Wherever the instructor-in-charge is mentioned
hereafter, it connotes the team of instructors, acting as one entity under his captainship.
3.4.4 The instructor-in-charge should make a comprehensive plan in respect of conducting the course
even before the semester begins. In a multi-section course, all instructors must remain in continuous
interaction in order to ensure a smooth operation of the course. While recognizing variations due to
personal attitudes and styles, it is important that these are smoothened out so that the operation and
grading in different sections in a course, indeed between courses across the Institute, are free from
any seeming arbitrariness.
3.4.5 At the beginning of class work, the instructor-in-charge/instructor must announce to his
class/section through a Course Handout, the necessary information in respect of (i) the operations of
the course (its pace, coverage and level of treatment, textbooks and other reading assignments,
home tasks etc); (ii) various components of evaluation, such as tutorials, laboratory exercises, home
assignment, several quizzes / tests / examinations (announced or unannounced, open book or closed
book), regularity of attendance, etc. (iii) the frequency, duration, tentative schedule, relative
weightage etc., of these various components; (iv) the broad policy which governs decisions about
make-up; (v) mid-semester grading; (vi) grading procedure (overall basis, review of border line
cases, effect of class average etc) (vii) Chamber consultation hours and (viii) other matters found
desirable and relevant.
3.4.6 Teaching and evaluation form a unity of functions and operate in a climate of mutual understanding
and trust. The different components of evaluation should be evenly spread out in the semester and
would aim to draw out response from the students in regard to various attributes like spontaneous
recall, ability to apply known concepts, capacity to work on his own, competence in conceptualized
arguments, ability to face unknown situations etc. At least on of the components (examination) must
be comprehensive enough to include the whole course and will be held at the end of the semester.
3.4.7 All written examinations are conducted at specified venues as per the pre-specified schedules.
Examination schedules are announced to the students through course handouts and /or student
circulars. The written examinations may consists of various types of question such as multiple-
choice questions, problems, short-answer questions, descriptive answer questions may vary
depending on the nature of the course. The components and the instruments of evaluation in certain
courses like IP, Thesis, Seminar, etc., would follow a different regimen and methodology.
3.4.8 Just as evaluation is done in continues manner, feedback should also be available in a continuous
manner. Thus, the answer scripts must be promptly evaluated, shown to the students for them to
27
obtain any clarification on their performance and returned to the students whenever practical. The
performance of the students in the examinations should be discussed in the class giving as much
details as possible like the highest, lowest and average performances.
3.4.9 Mid –semester interim grading for each course will be announced to the students to facilitate them
to know their current position relative to other students in that particular course. This grade alert
may help the student improve his performance in the remaining components of evaluation.
3.4.10 It shall be the responsibility of the individual student to attend all classes and to take prescribed
quizzes, tests, examinations, etc., and to submit, properly and promptly all homework. A student
must normally maintain a minimum of 75% attendance in each of the campus-based courses without
which he shall be disqualified from appearing in the respective examinations.
3.4.11 If a student does not maintain requisite attendance by the end of the semester, his registration in that
particular course may be cancelled and he would be required to repeat the course. No Makeup is
given in any circumstances; hence student is advised to maintain 75% attendance.
3.4.12 The attendance requirements in the Internship Program (IP) courses conducted at other
organizations are more stringent. During these courses 100% attendance is compulsory. However, in
genuine cases, the resident faculty member may consider and recommend a few days leave of
absence for the approval of the appropriate authority, whose decision would be final in such a
matter. During Internship Program, every student must conform to the rules and regulations of the
host organization. Any unprofessional behavior, misconduct, indiscipline, irregularity at work or
unsatisfactory performance would lead to the cancellation of registration in the course.
3.4.13 No Makeup is given in any circumstances; hence student is advised to maintain 75% attendance.
3.4.14 At the conclusion of the semester a student is awarded a grade in each of the courses he has taken
during that period. The grade awarded to a student in a course will depend on his total performance
in all the components of evaluation as designed by the instructor-in-charge and relative to the
performance of all the students evaluated for that course.
3.4.15 The instructor-in-charge is responsible for holding the examinations, awarding final grades and
transmitting the grades/reports to the authorities within the deadline set by him.
3.4.16 The list of letter grades, the grade points associated with them and their qualitative meanings are
given below.
Letter Qualitative Meaning Grade Points
Grade attached
A Excellent 10
B Good 8
C Fair 6
D Poor 4
E Exposed 0
3.4.17 When a student takes up Thesis/Seminar courses in place of Internship Program (wherever such
provision exists), he gets non-letter grades such as Excellent, Good, Fair, or Poor. These non-letter
grades have no grade points attached with them.
3.4.18 At the end of the course, in certain situations, the instructor-in-charge may report certain
events/facts in suitable words, in place of grades discussed earlier. These reports are not to be
construed as grades. The various reports listed below are elaborated in the subsequent clauses.
28
(i) Incomplete (I)
(ii) Grade Awaited (GA)
(iii) Withdrawn (W)
(iv) Registration Cancelled (RC): Required to Register Again (RRA), Discontinued from the
Program (DP), and
(v) Not Cleared (NC).
3.4.19 If the instructor-in-charge finds a student to have not fulfilled some of the requirements of a course
before the final deadline for transmitting the grade, and he is satisfied that he is able to transmit
some grade or a report with or without this particular fulfillment, but at his discretion wishes to give
the student an opportunity, he may, within the deadline, send a report ‘I’ (Incomplete) and also
inform the student of the same. It shall be the responsibility of the student to contact the instructor-
in-charge in time for replacement of the ‘I’ report within two weeks after the end of the semester
(and within one week after the end of summer term, for a summer term course) which may be
relaxed by the Principal, failing which the instructor-in-charge will communicate whatever
grade/report is possible for the situation. Whenever such relaxation is made, the Principal will
specify at his discretion, with the consent of the instructor-in-charge, the date by which ‘I’ report
has to be converted.
3.4.20 The requirement envisaged in clause 3.4.19 must be completed within the time allowed. If the extra
time given goes beyond the registration in the next semester/term is not possible. The student in
such a situation should seek permission to stay away.
3.4.21 There are many situations where operational and practical difficulties may cause a delay in the
communication of a grade. Certain situation which are visualized in this connection are: (i) where a
case of unfair means is pending; (ii) where a case of indiscipline is pending, and (iii) where the
courses are being conducted at an off campus center for IP students, where precise co-ordination
between the Institute and these centers may not workout in a timely manner. In these circumstances
the Principal may authorize the instructor-in-charge to report GA (Grades Awaited). It shall be the
responsibility of the instructor-in-charge to replace GA report by a letter grade or another report
within the specified time. Whenever the GA report appears in the grade sheet, permission for further
registration of such a student shall be at the discretion of the concerned Principal.
3.4.22 Whenever a student is allowed to withdraw from a course, the same is recorded in his grade sheet as
W (Withdrawn). The student will have to register for the course when it is offered next and obtain a
valid letter grade. If the course with ‘W’ report is a prerequisite course for another course, the
registration to the course is possible only on obtaining a valid letter grade in the prerequisite course
with ‘W’ report. No withdrawal is possible without the approval of the concerned authority.
3.4.23 Where a student’s registration for a course has to be cancelled, this fact will be reported in the grade
sheet as RC (Registration Cancelled). An event will be reported as RC in the following cases:
(i) Cancellation is recommended as a part of disciplinary action for resorting to unfair means during
examination or other unprofessional behavior.
(ii) A provisionally admitted student fails to submit the proof of necessary documents required for
registration and / or does not satisfy the minimum eligibility requirements for the admission within
the prescribed time limit.
29
(iii) When a student persistently and/or deliberately does not pay off his dues.
RC itself has many meanings and may be reported as the following:
(iv) RC1: Registration cancelled and attendance has not met the attendance criteria for appearing
in End-Term Examination, When it is clearly known that the student will be required to register
again in the same course, the event will be reported as RRA (Required to Register Again).
(v) RC2: Registration cancelled due to using UFM during Examination.
(vi) If RC amounts to discontinuation from the program it will be reported as DP (Discontinued
from the Program).
(vii) If the cancellation of registration is not reported either as RRA or as DP but is reported as RC,
it does not necessarily mean that it is free from any constraint. The meaning of the constraint has to
be construed from the context in which the RC is reported.
3.4.24 If a student continued to remain registered in a course but gave the instructor inadequate opportunity
to evaluate him by absenting himself from quizzes /tests / examinations / other components of
evaluation, or by appearing in the same for the sake of appearance without applying himself to the
task in hand or by submitting a blank script (answer book), or has less than the minimum attendance
required, this event would be reported as RRA (Required to register again).
3.4.25 Whenever a student gets an NC report in a course irrespective of whether he has a grade in the
course or not earlier to this event, the following will govern further action. It is to be noted that an
NC cannot be ignored, except under the situations described in (b) and (c) below:
(a) Whenever a student gets an NC report in a course which is in the compulsory package of his program,
he is required to register again in the same course and get a valid grade therein.
(b) If a student has an NC report in a course taken as elective, he can either repeat the course to get a valid
grade or ignore it to choose another course. However, a student must get valid grades in at least the
prescribed number of electives in his program.
(c) Whenever a student’s record has an NC in a course which remains unaccounted after a process of
transfer has been completed, it will not be possible for him to wipe out the NC report in such a
course because this course is not a part of his program anymore; and he can graduate with this NC.
(d) If a student is reported NC in a project course, it will be administratively converted to RC by the
Principal and future registration in project courses will be done only if the Principal is satisfied with
the genuineness of the candidate’s interest in the course.
(e) If a student is reported NC in Thesis or Seminar, he will be required to register in the same for one
more semester. Operationally, this is to be achieved by requiring him to register once again in as
many units of Thesis or Seminar in which he had registered when he was awarded NC. If these two
courses get separated due to NC in one of them, there is no need to register in the other.
3.4.26 If a student has already met the attendance criterion for appearing in the comprehensive exam then
he/she will not be required to attend classes to re-appear in the comprehensive examination for
grade improvement or for any other reason. The student can take exam by self study. In this case,
his internal marks and mid-tem marks obtained in the first registration will remain unchanged.
Accordingly, NC/GI/RC2 (RC2: Registration cancelled due to using UFM during Examination)
cases would fall in this category.
30
3.4.27 A student who has not satisfied the criterion of attendance for appearing in comprehensive exam
would be required to attend the Summer/Regular term classes, and meet the attendance requirement
to appear in Mid-Term and Comprehensive Examination. In this case, the student will be evaluated
fresh in terms of his/her internal marks, Mid-Term marks and End-Term marks. Accordingly,
RRA/RC1 (RC1: Registration cancelled and attendance has not met the attendance criteria for
appearing in End-Term Examination) cases would fall in this category.
3.4.28 To pass a Course, a student must secure minimum 30% marks in both Comprehensive examination
and Grand total.
3.4.29 Course in which the number of registered students will be less than 30, absolute grading may be
adopted. The grade range of absolute grading will be as follows:
31
registration. It would be evident that this tally between what was registration for and what was
obtained in terms of grades and reports will apply to all courses except the course, which was
originally registered for, but subsequently replaced by another course through substitution. The tally
is made on a course basis at the end of semester/term to determine which of the courses have been
cleared. A course is deemed to have been cleared if the student obtains a grade in the course.
However, mere clearing of the prescribed courses does not tantamount to fulfilling the requirements
of graduation.
3.4.30 While all the grades secured, reports and other pertinent information for a semesters are given in a
grade sheet, the chronologically organized information from the grade sheets of a student with the
necessary explanation constitutes his transcript which is issued at the time he leaves the Institute or
at an intermediate point on request.
32
3.5.6 Once a student has been placed under the purview of ACC, he should continue to be under its direct
guidance until ACC, after being satisfied with his/her overall progress and performance, declares
the student to be out of its purview. All decisions of ACC shall be final.
33
* NC: Not Cleared, GI: Grade Improvement, RRA: Required to Register Again, RC1: Registration
Cancelled due to Disciplinary Action during Semester, RC2: Registration Cancelled due to caught
under UFM during Examination.
3.8 Summer Term
IUD may offers a summer term after the completion of even semester, in order to provide an
opportunity to the students who have obtained a valid grade in the course but not meet the academic
requirements, to improve the grade. The rules and regulations governing the offer of the summer term
are as under:
3.8.1 RRA / NC / GI students can register for the course in the summer, subject to availability of the
courses and faculty members.
3.8.2 RRA / NC / Grade Improvement students can register for maximum of four courses only.
3.8.3 RRA registered students must complete 75% attendance to appear in all the components of
each subject for final evaluation.
3.8.4 NC / GI students are not required to attend classes for such courses, and they have to appear
only for the end term examination. Their previous continuous evaluation marks will remain
unchanged. However, they have the choice to register as RRA and attend classes. In this case,
they will be evaluated on all the components including continuous evaluation, and their latest
marks will be applicable.
3.8.5 All registered students are required to pay registration fee as per the university notification.
3.8.6 All Registration Cancelled (RC) students can register for the course only after the consent of
disciplinary committee.
3.8.7 In General, Project / IP course registration is not allowed during summer semester.
3.8.8 All the registered students are required to collect information regarding summer semester
examination schedule (all the examination components) from the concerned School only.
3.8.9 If a student has skipped a semester then he/she can be allowed to register for that semester
only in the similar regular (odd/even) semester.
3.8.10 IUD reserves the right to offer / reject the application for registration to a particular course. It
is not mandatory to offer such courses as requested by students.
3.8.11 Summer Term fee structure will be same as mention at point 3.7.

PART - V
Internship Program
5.1 Objective
The Internship Program (IP) forms an important component of the education at IUD. This program is
an attempt to bridge the gap between the academic institution and industry by involving the students
in an ongoing developmental activity under the direct supervision of experienced Faculty and experts
from the Corporate World. The IP method of education and curriculum represents a controlled
simulation of real life situations and circumstances. It is adopted by IUD to link the educational
institution with the real working environment.
The Internship Program requires the students to undergo the rigour of the professional world in form
as well as in substance, providing them an opportunity to apply their class-room knowledge to live
situations which cannot be simulated in the classroom environment. It differs from the
“PracticalTraining”as well as “Sandwich Schemes” as the entire student education at the Internship
Program station is supervised by the ITS faculty resident at the station and the program forms a part
of the total credit towards student‟ s degree.
Students are advised to take up assignments, of direct interest to the host organization. These
assignments involving team-work would be multidisciplinary, time bound, mission-oriented and goal-
oriented. Solutions to various problems confronted in the assignment might be open-ended, involving
an element of analytical thinking, processing and decision making in the fore of insufficient data,
parameters and uncertain situations.
5.2. Student - Faculty Interaction
A team of students, attending the Internship program at an organization is assigned a faculty guide at
the beginning of the program. The role of faculty is to interact with student as project guide and
Industry supervisor regularly to chalk out an effective interaction plan, and later to know about the
student‟ s progress in his respective projects and the quality and quantity of work put in by the
student. Industry supervisor is invited to the seminars in order to involve them more effectively in the
Internship Program.
5.3 Student-Industry supervisor Interaction
The industry supervisor from the host organization helps in identifying the assignment suitable for the
student. Later they act as technical guides to the students. Along with the faculty, they evaluate the
student on the progress of the work. The industry supervisor time should not be taken for granted and
the students should approach him/her well prepared for specific assistance, guidance or suggestions
on the project.
5.4 Discipline and Conduct
Attendance: 100% attendance is compulsory for the Internship program. However, if for any
genuine reason a student is unable to report to the allotted organization on any day, he/she should
45
obtain a formal permission for leave of absence as per the rulesandregulations of the organization.
Permission should also be taken from the IUD faculty in-charge for the Internship Program.
As Interns, the students assume the role of IUD ambassadors. The University expects the students to
maintain high standards of professional and social conduct in the organization. IUD expects the
student at all times during the Internship Program, to conform to the rules and regulations of their
place of work. It is important to be regular, punctual and obedient at work. During the period of
Internship Program, the student shall be subjected to the leave rules of the organization he/she is
working for and must ensure strict adherence to the timings of the organization.
Unprofessional behavior, misconduct, indiscipline, irregularity and unsatisfactory performance at work
will lead to the cancellation of registration in the Internship Program. Consequently, a student may
lose at least one year of study, besides other form of disciplinary action that IUD might deem fit to
take
46
During Internship Program, student is evaluated through observations by the faculty and project guide
for the following traits: -
Regularity and ability to meet deadlines.
Sense of responsibility.
Initiative, leadership and co-operation.
Industry and diligence.
Social sense and adaptability to practical situations.
5.5.4 Diary
Further, a student is expected to maintain a diary which is an attempt to cultivate the habit of
documentation, enabling the student to develop his own thought process and reasoning abilities.
Industry supervisor would check and sign the diary periodically. Here, the
student is tested for the following attributes.
47
PART -VI
Academic Administration and Infrastructure
6.1 Faculty
A team of highly qualified, competent and committed faculty members steers the IUD. The University
is endowed with teachers drawn from the leading institutions, practicing professionals and
academicians to provide high quality of academic delivery. The institution plays a significant role in
ensuring quality education through interactive teaching, continuous multiple criteria evaluation and
constructive feedback mechanism. The faculty brings their extensive knowledge, professional
experience and advanced education to their task at IUD.
The University has a well-stocked library containing reference materials, magazines and
Indian/International books and journals. The library subscribes to the industry information database to
make available large research resources and publications with search facilities to students and faculty.
In addition, the library contains directories, industry reports and statistical compilations that
provide timely and concise information for project works. Library is open to all students and faculty
members and is continuously updated with latest books and journals under the supervision and
advice of the library committee.
The University provides the latest hardware and software infrastructure to cater to all the computing
needs of the students and faculty. The institution is equipped with powerful servers and multiple
terminals with multiple operating systems enabling a client-server environment. The students are
guided by well experienced faculty to handle the computer labs. Leased internet facility is available
for undertaking research activities.
A central workshop with various machine tools and equipments including CNC machine
supports hands-on training in various areas of workshop practices.
Laboratories for Physics, Chemistry, Digital Electronics, Microprocessors, Communication, RF &
Microwave, Robotics, Digital Signal Processing, Hydraulics & Hydraulic Machines, CAD,IC Engine,
Refrigeration, Computer languages lab, Dynamics of Machine & Vibration, Advanced Mechanics of
Solids & Kinematics etc. provide facilities for the students of different disciplines to acquire skills for
measuring various parameters in science and technology
Students who successfully complete the program will be awarded relevant Degree by the University,
subject to the University regulation.
Students scoring the first rank and second rank on completion of their Program will be awarded Gold
and silver medals respectively.
48
6.6 IUD Alumni Society
IUD has established the IUD Alumni Society ( IUDAS). All students are required to seek membership
in IUDAS. The provisional membership in the alumni body entitles the students to participate in
seminars, workshops, conferences and local chapter activities organized by IUDAS.
At IUD, emphasis is laid on the need to balance classroom and out-of-classroom life. The University
endeavors to build up personal growth and maturity in the students by providing a variety of
opportunities for participation and initiation in co-curricular activities. The activities have been
intended to support the educational purpose of the University by working to create experimental
learning options outside the classroom and encouraging the students to actively participate in the wider
educational arena.
Through diverse activities, such as organizing seminars on contemporary issues, guest lectures and other
inter-college competitions, the students learn to value collaborative and collective learning. Students are
also encouraged to form informal groups and clubs based on their areas of interests, and share
information and exchange ideas. Students also organize annual meets, which offer a wide array of
opportunities to develop closer interaction with other colleges.
49
6.8 Placements
Utmost importance is given to placement-related activities to ensure that all successful post graduates
and graduates receive suitable placements. In this context, the University is uniquely placed to leverage
on an industry network, developed over a period of time.
Over the past several years, a strong placement network has been developed with blue-chip companies
in the manufacturing, engineering, financial services, information technology, and other sectors. A
number of national and multinational companies have recruited the students through campus
recruitment. This has been achieved through constant interaction with the industry by way of seminars,
internship courses conducted in industries, research projects, and on and off-campus initiatives.
As a part of its placement efforts, placement teams visit potential employers and consultants and
apprise them of the level of knowledge and practical application skills acquired by the graduates in their
respective areas of specialization. The profiles of the students seeking placement assistance are made
available to the prospective employers.
Placement meets and personality development workshops are organized as a part of the placement
program. All the students are provided guidance in career planning as they progress to higher levels of
the program.
The entire placement exercise is a joint effort between the University and the students. While the
University provides guidance, support, and networking with potential employers, the students have the
responsibility to put in the maximum possible efforts to obtain suitable placements.
Guest lectures and seminars play an important role in the development process of the students. Eminent
academicians and practicing professionals are invited for guest lectures where the students get an
opportunity to interact closely with them and understand the practical applications in various industries.
Students must adhere to the “ Campus Rules” copies of which are distributed to the students. Anyone
found violating any of these would come under the purview of Disciplinary Committee of the
University and would be liable for the punishment awarded by the committee. A few guidelines are
mentioned below:
Students are prohibited from indulging in any disorderly conduct whether by words spoken or written
or by an act with the effect of teasing, treating or handling with rudeness, any other student. Indulging
in unruly or indiscipline activities which cause or are likely to cause annoyance, hardship or
psychological harm or to raise fear or apprehension thereof in any student, junior or senior, or asking
the student to do any act or perform something which such a student will not do in the ordinary course
and which has the effect of causing or generating a sense of shame or embarrassment so as to adversely
affect the physique or psyche of the student is prohibited. Any student violating the above and thus
indulging in any act or ragging, will be severely dealt with.
Students are expected to act in ways that are consistent with the role and guiding values of the ICFAI
University, Dehradun. Students should regulate their own conduct so as not to impede or prejudice the
work of other members. They are entitled to work, learn, study and participate in the social aspects of
the institute's life in an environment of safety and respect. It is expected that students will act with
integrity and demonstrate respect for others and adhere to the standards of conduct. Students should refrain
themselves from misconduct of any kind.
Sexual harassment of individuals occurring in the place of work or study or in other settings in which
they may find themselves in connection with their association with the University is unlawful and will
not be tolerated by the University. Further, any retaliation against an individual who has complained
about sexual harassment or retaliation against individuals for cooperating with an investigation of a
sexual harassment complaintis similarly unacceptable. To achieve this goal, conduct that is described as
"Sexual Harassment" in this policy will not be tolerated and a procedure is provided by which
inappropriate conduct will be dealt with, if encountered among employees/students.
51
The University will also take all the appropriate steps necessary to protect individuals from retaliation.
Such Steps include:
While this policy sets forth the goal of the University of promoting a study or workplace that is free of
sexual harassment, the policy is not designed or intended to limit the authority of the University to
discipline or take remedial action for conduct which the University deems unacceptable, regardless of
whether that conduct satisfies the definition of sexual harassment.
The primary mode of communication of the institution with the student is through e-mail. Students are
expected to check their e-mail account regularly. Students can access the complete information like
registration, detailed course syllabus, fee details, attendance, grades, scholarships and various forms
through student zone.
The ICFAI University offer merit scholarships to students pursuing the various Programs. The
scholarships are based on performance in the qualifying examination and Semester-wise
performance during the Program.
A. Merit Scholarships based on past academic record:
Percentage achieved in qualifying examination (or its equivalent) will decide the amount of
scholarship. Scholarship will continue semester after semester only on maintaining the minimum
7.0 GPA. The details are as below
