Assessment Details (both CIE and SEE)

The weightage of Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) is 50% and for Semester End Exam
(SEE) is 50%. The minimum passing mark for the CIE is 40% of the maximum marks (20 marks
out of 50). The minimum passing mark for the SEE is 35% of the maximum marks (18 marks out
of 50). A student shall be deemed to have satisfied the academic requirements and earned the
credits allotted to each subject/ course if the student secures not less than 35% (18 Marks out
of 50) in the semester-end examination(SEE), and a minimum of 40% (40 marks out of 100) in
the sum total of the CIE (Continuous Internal Evaluation) and SEE (Semester End Examination)
taken together.
Continuous Internal Evaluation(CIE):
Two Unit Tests each of 20 Marks (duration 01 hour)
 First test after the completion of 30-40 % of the syllabus
 Second test after completion of 80-90% of the syllabus
One Improvement test before the closing of the academic term may be conducted if necessary.
However best two tests out of three shall be taken into consideration.
Two assignments each of 10 Marks
The teacher has to plan the assignments and get them completed by the students well before the
closing of the term so that marks entry in the examination portal shall be done in time.
Formative (Successive) Assessments include Assignments/Quizzes/Seminars/ Course
projects/Field surveys/ Case studies/ Hands-on practice (experiments)/Group Discussions/
others. . The Teachers shall choose the types of assignments depending on the requirement of
the course and plan to attain the Cos and POs. (to have a less stressed CIE, the portion of the
syllabus should not be common /repeated for any of the methods of the CIE. Each method of
CIE should have a different syllabus portion of the course). CIE methods /test question paper is
designed to attain the different levels of Bloom’s taxonomy as per the outcome defined for the
course.
The sum of two tests, two assignments, will be out of 60 marks and will be scaled down to
30 marks
CIE for the practical component of the Integrated Course
 On completion of every experiment/program in the laboratory, the students shall be
evaluated and marks shall be awarded on the same day. The15 marks are for conducting the
experiment and preparation of the laboratory record, the other 05 marks shall be for the test
conducted at the end of the semester.
 The CIE marks awarded in the case of the Practical component shall be based on the
continuous evaluation of the laboratory report. Each experiment report can be evaluated for 10
marks. Marks of all experiments’ write-ups are added and scaled down to 15 marks.
 The laboratory test (duration 02/03 hours) at the end of the 14th /15th week of the
semester /after completion of all the experiments (whichever is early) shall be conducted for 50
marks and scaled down to 05 marks.
Scaled-down marks of write-up evaluations and tests added will be CIE marks for the laboratory
component of IPCC for 20 marks.

Semester End Examination(SEE):

SEE will have two component Theory Examination and Practical Examination
Theory Examination;
 Theory SEE will be conducted by University as per the scheduled timetable, with common
question papers for the subject (duration 03 hours)
 The question paper shall be set for 100 marks. The medium of the question paper shall be
English). The duration of SEE is 03 hours.
The question paper will have 10 questions. Two questions per module. Each question is set for 20 marks.
The students have to answer 5 full questions, selecting one full question from each module. The student
has to answer for 100 marks and marks scored out of 100 shall be proportionally reduced to 30
marks
 There will be 2 questions from each module. Each of the two questions under a module
(with a maximum of 3 sub-questions), should have a mix of topics under that module.
Practical Examination;
 SEE marks for the practical course is 100 Marks.
 SEE shall be conducted jointly by the two examiners of the same institute, examiners are
appointed by the University
 All laboratory experiments are to be included for practical examination.
 (Rubrics) Breakup of marks and the instructions printed on the cover page of the answer
script to be strictly adhered to by the examiners. OR based on the course requirement
evaluation rubrics shall be decided jointly by examiners.
 Students can pick one question (experiment) from the questions lot prepared by the internal
/external examiners jointly.
 Evaluation of test write-up/ conduction procedure and result/viva will be conducted jointly by
examiners.
 General rubrics suggested for SEE are mentioned here, writeup-20%, Conduction procedure
and result in -60%, Viva-voce 20% of maximum marks. SEE for practical shall be evaluated for
100 marks and scored marks shall be scaled down to 20 marks (however, based on course
type, rubrics shall be decided by the examiners)
 Change of experiment is allowed only once and 15% Marks allotted to the procedure part to be
made zero.
 The duration of SEE is 02 or 03 hours
Note:
1. Students have to appear in both theory and practical components of CIE and SEE and
score a minimum of 40% of the maximum marks of CIE and a minimum of 35% of the
maximum marks of SEE. An average of a minimum 40% of the maximum marks of
course (100 marks) to pass the course.
2. Passing is CIE is compulsory to become eligible to appear for SEE
3. In SEE passing both theory and practical examinations is compulsory.
If a student fails in any one of the components (Theory/Practical) then he/she has to reappear
in the next semester for both components (i.e theory and practical) and pass the both the
components.
