 FOREWORD

It is three years since the G.V.P College of Engineering has become

Autonomous with the appreciation and support of erstwhile JNTU
and the fast growing new JNTU-K. The college is progressing well
with its programmes and procedures drawing more and more
accolades from its sister autonomous colleges and higher authorities.
The student community, also could adjust well to the new system
without any acrimony.

The College is enriched with the experience of running the Post-

graduate programmes under Autonomous stream. It is a moment
of pride and achievement that the first Autonomous batch of
M.Tech in some branches left the college to the satisfaction of all
concerned including firms visited the campus for placements.

Another larger than canvas picture is foreseen for the programmes

wherein the college is getting the funds through TEQIP – II for up-
scaling the PG education and research under sub- component 1.2. In
this connection two new PG Programmes have been introduced in
Mechanical, Electrical Engineering.

New set of Boards of Studies, Academic council and Governing Body

has further strengthened our hands by endorsing the practices and
suggested recommendations.
The encouragement given by the affiliating JNTU-K has left no task
insurmountable.

4.0 ATTENDANCE:
The attendance shall be considered subject wise.
a. A candidate shall be deemed to have eligibility to write end
semester examinations in a subject if he has put in at least
75% of attendance in that subject.
b. Shortage of attendance up to 10% in any subject (i.e. 65%
and above and below 75%) may be condoned by a Committee
on genuine and valid reasons on representation by the
candidate with supporting evidence.
c. Shortage of attendance below 65% shall in no case be
condoned.
d. A student who gets less than 65% attendance in a maximum
of two subjects in any semester shall not be permitted to
takethe end- semester examination in which he/she falls short
His/her registration for those subjects will be treated as
cancelled. The student should re-register and repeat those
subjects as and when offered next.

2
 subjects in any semester he/she shall be detained and has to

f. A stipulated fee shall be payable towards condonation of
shortage of attendance.

5.0 EVALUATION:
The Performance of the candidate in each semester shall be
evaluated subject-wise, with 100 marks for each theory
subject and 100 marks for each practical, on the basis of
Internal Evaluation and End Semester Examination.
a. A candidate shall be deemed to have secured the minimum
academic requirement in a subject if he secures a minimum of
40% of marks in the End Examination and a minimum
aggregate of 50% of the total marks in the End Semester
Examination and Internal Evaluation taken together.

b. For the theory subjects 60 marks shall be awarded based on

the performance in the End Semester Examination, 40 marks
shall be awarded based on the Internal Evaluation. One part
of the internal evaluation shall be made based on the average
of the marks secured in the two Mid–Term Examinations of
30 each conducted one in the middle of the Semester and the
other immediately after the completion of instruction. Each
mid-term examination shall be conducted for a duration of
120 minutes with 4 questions without any choice. The
remaining 10 marks are awarded through an average of
continuous evaluation of assignments / seminars / any other
method, as notified by the teacher at the beginning of the
semester.
c. For Practical subjects, 50 marks shall be awarded based on
the performance in the End Semester Examinations, 50 marks
shall be awarded based on the day-to-day performance as
Internal marks. A candidate has to secure a minimum of 50%
in the external examination and has to secure a minimum of
3
 50% on the aggregate to be declared successful.
d. There shall be a seminar presentation during III semester.
For seminar, a student under the supervision of a faculty
member, shall collect the literature on a topic and critically
review the literature and submit it to the Department in a
report form and shall make an oral presentation before the
Departmental Committee. The Departmental Committee
consists of the Head of the Department, supervisor and two
other senior faculty members of the department. For Seminar
there will be only internal evaluation of 50 marks. A
candidate has to secure a minimum of 50% to be declared
successful.

e. For Seminar in I, II Semesters in case of the course structure

of having 5 Theory + 2 Labs. + 1 Seminar, a student has to
deliver a seminar talk in each of the subjects in that semester
which shall be evaluated for 10 marks each and average
marks allotted shall be considered. A letter grade from A to
C corresponding to the marks allotted may be awarded for the
two credits so as to keep the existing structure and evaluation
undisturbed.

A – Excellent (average marks > 8

B – Good (6< average marks <8)
C – Satisfactory (5< average marks <6)

If a satisfactory grade is not secured, one has to repeat in the

following semester.
f. In case the candidate does not secure the minimum academic
requirement in any subject (as specified in 5.0 a, c) he has to
reappear for the End Examination in that subject.
A candidate shall be given one chance to re-register for each
subject provided the internal marks secured by a candidate are
4
 less than 50% and he has failed in the subject(s). In such a
case the candidate must re-register for the subject (s) and
secure required minimum attendance. Attendance in the re-
registered subject (s) has to be calculated separately to
become eligible to write the end- examination in the re-
registered subject(s). In the event of re-registration, the
internal marks and end examination marks obtained in the
previous attempt are nullified.
g. In case the candidates secure less than the required
attendance in any subject(s), he shall not be permitted to
appear for the End Examination in that subject(s). He shall
re-register for the subject(s) when next offered.
h. Laboratory examination for M.Tech subjects must be
conducted with two Examiners, one of them being
Laboratory Class Teacher and second examiner shall be other
than Laboratory Teacher.
