Preamble:

Education is the key to the development of any society. The role of higher
education is crucial for securing the right kind of employment and also to pursue
further studies in the best available world-class institutions within or outside India.
Quality education in general and higher education, in particular, deserves high
priority to enable the young and future generation of students to acquire
knowledge, skill, and training in order to have a holistic and multidisciplinary
education to develop all capacities of human beings-intellectual, aesthetic, social,
physical, emotional and moral in an integrated manner. Sustained initiatives are
required to reform the present higher education system for improving and
upgrading the academic resources and learning environments by raising the quality
of teaching and standards of achievements in learning outcomes across all
undergraduate programs in science, humanities, commerce, and professional
streams of higher education including computer science. Hence, to bring positive
changes and to make “Bharat” a Vishwa Guru, New National Education Policy

(NEP-2020) approved by the Union Cabinet on 29th July 2020.This policy envisions
an education system rooted in Indian ethos that contributes directly to
transforming India sustainably into an equitable and vibrant knowledge society by
providing high-quality education to all and thereby making India a global
knowledge superpower. Education further envisions to instill a deep-rooted pride
in being Indian, not only in thought but also in spirit, intellect, and deeds, as well
as to develop knowledge skills, values, and dispositions that support responsible
commitment to human rights. The existing watertight compartment if broken, will
give way to multi and inter-disciplinary learning.
Engineering UG Programs as professional courses are designed through
systematic planning to empower students with knowledge of fundamentals and
employable skills in the specific field, and four-year duration shall have a
multidisciplinary approach. Further with specialized and enhance knowledge and
skillsets. In line with the aim and vision of National Education Policy (NEP) -2020
and its effective implementation of NEP in Engineering and Technology, the Expert
Committee is proposing a model curriculum Framework for UG Program in
Engineering and Technology to achieve the intentions of 12 Graduate Programme
Attributes (POs as defined by NBA).

To meet the contemporary and futuristic needs of India’s large youth

population.
The policy is designed to meet the changing dynamics of the requirements
in terms of quality education, innovation, and research.
The policy aims at equipping students with the necessary skills and
knowledge.
It also focuses on eliminating the shortage of manpower in science,
technology, academics, and industry.
The policy is built on the pillars of access, equity, quality, affordability, and
accountability

[12] Students would be engaged in experiential learning through community
services as per activity points to be earned, prescribed by AICTE. This activity
will sensitize the students to understand societal problems and also allow
them to give solutions to the problem faced by the different persons across
different social systems
[13] A four-year Bachelor's Degree may be awarded with major stream. Students
who obtain a CGPA ≥ 8.5 at the end of the fourth semester and continue to
maintain this CGPA and No “F” grades at any point of time will be eligible to
obtain an Honors degree if the student earns an additional minimum of 18
credits through online mode as prescribed by the autonomy curriculum from

[14] Students will have to opt for either a major/Honors degree. In the curriculum
design based on the nature of the course offered, some of the topics may be
covered through self-study components to enhance their learning. Proposed
to have blended mode (offline & online) of teaching and learning. Emphasis
on formative assessment which focuses on assessment for learning.
[15] Integration of Laboratory and Theory courses, wherever appropriate, are
introduced.
[16] Open-ended experiments as part of laboratory courses may also be
introduced.
[17] Promoting the use of technology in curriculum delivery (TEL) and the use of

Examination pattern:
• SEE will be conducted for 3 hours.
• Two experiments, one from Part A and one from Part B has to be completed.
• Questions for Part A and Part B is given on a lotto basis and oral viva-voce is conducted.
• In Record and in CIE, for each experiment the weightage of marks is as follows,
(i) Aim, Procedure and writeup- 15% marks
(ii) Conducting the practical including calculation, graphs and results – 70% marks
(iii) Viva- Voce- 15% marks
Note:
• In CIE and SEE, if there is change of experiment then subsequently 15% marks with respect
to aim, write up and procedure shall be deducted.
CIE can have the similar QP pattern as SEE and shall be accordingly evaluated.
