(ii) CGPA = ∑ Ci Gi / ∑ Ci where Ci is the number of credits of course i

Gi is the Grade Point for the course i
and i = 1 to n, n = number of courses of all semesters
up to which CGPA is computed.

9) Award of Class

 The class awarded to a student in the programme is decided by the final CGPA as per the
following scheme:
Award of Class CGPA Range
First Class with Distinction CGPA≥ 7.5 & ≤10.0
First class CGPA≥ 6.0 & <7.5
Second Class CGPA≥ 5.0 & <6.0
Pass Class CGPA<5.0

 CHOICE BASED CREDIT SYSTEM
With the aim of incorporating the various guidelines initiated by the University Grants
Commission (UGC) to bring equality, efficiency and excellence in the Higher Education
System, Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) has been adopted. CBCS offers wide range of
choices to students in all semesters to choose the courses based on their aptitude and career
objectives. It accelerates the teaching-learning process and provides flexibility to students to
opt for the courses of their choice and / or undergo additional courses to strengthen their
Knowledge, Skills and Attitude.

1. CBCS – Conceptual Definitions / Key Terms (Terminologies)

Types of Courses: The Programme Structure consist of 4 types of courses: Foundation

courses, Core courses, Elective courses and Non-credit (audit) courses.

1.1. Foundation Course

These courses are offered by the institute in order to prepare students for studying
courses to be offered at higher levels.

1.2. Core Courses

A Course which shall compulsorily be studied by a candidate to complete the

requirements of a degree / diploma in a said programme of study is defined as a core
course. Following core courses are incorporated in CBCS structure:

A. University Core courses(UC):

University core courses are compulsory courses which are offered across university
and must be completed in order to meet the requirements of programme.
Environmental science will be a compulsory University core for all Undergraduate
Programmes.

B. Programme Core courses(PC):

Programme core courses are compulsory courses offered by respective programme

owners, which must be completed in order to meet the requirements of programme.

© CHARUSAT 2023 Page | 8

 1.3. Elective Courses

Generally, a course which can be chosen from a pool of courses and which may be very
specific or specialised or advanced or supportive to the discipline of study or which
provides an extended scope or which enables an exposure to some other discipline /
domain or nurtures the candidates proficiency / skill is called an elective course.
Following elective courses are incorporated in CBCS structure:

A. University Elective Courses(UE):

The pool of elective courses offered across all faculties / programmes. As a general
guideline, Programme should incorporate 2 University Electives of 2 credits each
(total 4 credits).

B. Institute Elective Course (IE)

Institute ekective courses are those courses which any students of the
University/Institute of a Particular Level (PG/UG) will choose as offered or decided
by the University/Institute from time-to-time irrespective of their Programme
/Specialisation

C. Programme Elective Courses(PE):

The programme specific pool of elective courses offered by respective programme.

D. Cluster Elective Course (CE):

An ‘Elective Course’ is a course which students can choose from the given set of
functional course/ Area or Streams of Specialization options (eg. Common Courses
to EC/CE/IT/EE) as offered or decided by the Institute from time-to-time.

1.4. Non Credit Course (NC) - AUDIT Course

A ‘Non Credit Course’ is a course where students will receive Participation or Course
Completion certificate. This will be reflected in Student’s Grade Sheet but the grade
of the course will not be consider to calculate SGPA and CGPA. Attendance and
Course Assessment is compulsory for Non Credit Courses.
