- Summary of Credit Hours Requirements
A student's performance is measured by the number of credits satisfactorily completed and by the weighted average of the grade points earned. The number of class tests/assignments/presentations of a course will be '', where '' is the number of credits of the course. The manner of continuous assessment for a particular course will be included in the course review plan which will be provided to the students by the course teacher within the first week of the beginning of each term.
The exam in the sessional/practical subjects is conducted by the respective department before the end of the term. In order to advance to the next higher semester/level, the student must successfully complete all the occasional courses of the semester. Term final exams will last 3 hours, regardless of the credit hours of theoretical subjects.
But the student will not be promoted to the next higher level and term if he cannot pass at least one failed theoretical subject out of the 3 (three) failed subjects in the referred exam. The maximum letter grade that can be obtained in the improvement examination will be 'B+' and if he/she cannot improve, the grade obtained in the final examination will prevail. Referral/Remedial Examinations/Examinations will also be conducted by the Office of the Controller of Examinations.
The special adjourned exam will be arranged in a suitable time after 30 (thirty) days after the publication of the final results of the 4th level II exam. The examinee is also not allowed to leave the examination hall during the last fifteen minutes of the examination, unless he submits the answer script. He will not be allowed to appear in the remedial course examination.
Some core courses are offered by the IPE Department and some by other departments.
