INTRODUCTION
SH
MI
The department of Computer Science and Engineering, abbreviated CSE, is offering an

undergraduate engineering degree program since the establishment of the university in the
year 1995 to render quality higher education to numerous worthy young fellows as well as
to meet the huge demand of highly qualified specialists in the field. The 4-year program is
spread over eight semesters with two semesters per academic year. Each semester is of
around 20 working weeks containing classes for 15 weeks and preparatory leave with
semester final examination for 5 weeks. Apart from the 20 working weeks per semester, the
department remains open for clearance/improvement/carryover examinations, result and
admission of students in the 1st semester of 1st year and for works related to industrial
training etc.
AL
Entry qualification for the program is Higher Secondary Certificate (H.S.C.) with good
academic background or A-Level with comparable results or equivalent. Usual intake of
students in the department is twice in an academic year. Theory classes are held with
approximately 50 students per class and each class is divided into two subsections for
practical classes. Students graduated from this department are employed in different
prestigious institutions and organizations home and abroad. Some of them have already
completed, and some are getting admitted every year to postgraduate studies at well
reputed universities all over the world. Also a number of students of the department have
taken transfer to foreign universities.
IS
LA
The department has a good number of full-time faculty members with best available
exposure to ever-growing horizon of computer science and engineering. Besides, a number
of part-time faculties also teach in each semester from other universities, research
organizations and industrial establishments for extending experience-rich education.
The program follows an intensive course curriculum containing well-organized courses on
basic sciences, computer science, electrical and electronic engineering, computer
engineering, management and humanities. Of course, computer science and engineering
courses are most emphasized and constitute the bulk of the program (about 70%).
We have seven computer labs and one digital electronics lab equipped with modern
personal computers and electronic devices in the department for conducting regular
sessional (practical) classes. These labs have been named as Network & Data
Communication (NDC) Lab (7B01), Web Application & Multimedia (WAM) Lab (7B03), Data
& Knowledge Engineering (DKE) Lab (7B05), Software Engineering (SE) Lab (7B06),
INTRODUCTION
Microprocessor & Interfacing (MI) Lab (7B07), Operating System (OS) Lab (7B08) and
Digital Electronics & Design (DED) Lab (7B04) respectively. There is a server center
equipped with various PC-server systems for providing network facilities to the labs. The
department provides email and internet facilities to teachers and students. It also maintains
a web site under the address www.aust.edu.
MI
The department organizes various co-curricular and extra-curricular activities to develop

important social and professional faculties in the students. Most common co-curricular
activity is the programming contest, which has become regular by this time. The
department also organizes chess, football and cricket tournaments among the students.
The most common extra-curricular activities are reception parties for welcoming the newly
entered students and also for biding farewell to the outgoing students.
AL
SH
In this booklet semester-wise brief and detailed outlines of the departmental and nondepartmental courses have been given. A few other courses may also be offered in
addition to the courses shown here. Optional courses described here are offered
depending on the availability of teachers and the number of students in the class.
Requirements of contact hours and credits have also been summarized. A semester-wise
list of suggested text & reference books has been added at the end and, besides, a brief
description of the up-to-date rules and regulations regarding examinations, grading system
and grade points has been incorporated at the beginning.

EXAMINATION, GRADING SYSTEM, GPA REQUIREMENTS AND UPDATES

IN COURSE CODES FOR THE UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAM **
(1)
The performance of a student in a theoretical course of study will be evaluated

on the basis of the following criteria:
(i)
Continuous assessment (assessment of class attendance, class

performance, quizzes/class tests and/or assignments etc.).
(ii)
Semester Final Examination.
(iii)
Clearance Examination (for clearance of the courses in which the

students fail in the Regular Examination, if any).
(v)
MI
(iv) Carry Over Examination (for clearance of back log of the course(s) of
previous semester(s), if any).
SH
Improvement Examination (for improvement of the grade(s) obtained in

the Regular Examinations, if any).
Continuous assessment and Semester Final Examination will form the

Regular Examination while the Clearance Examination, Carry Over
Examination and Improvement Examination will provide additional
opportunities to the students.
(3)
The distribution of marks after continuous assessment and in the Semester

Final/Clearance/Carry Over/Improvement Examination will be as follows:
AL
(2)
IS
(i) Class participation (i.e. class attendance, class performance etc.)10%

(ii) Quizzes/class tests and/or assignments 20%
LA
(iii) Semester Final/Clearance/Carry Over/Improvement Examination... 70%

Total: 100%
**
(4)
The number of quizzes/class tests and/or assignments in a theoretical course

of study shall ordinarily be (n + 1), where n is the number of credit hours of
the course. Evaluation of the performance will be on the basis of the best n
quizzes/class tests and/or assignments.
These rules are subject to change from semester to semester.

UPDATES IN COURSE CODES FOR THE UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAM
(5)
The performance of a student in a sessional/practical course will be

evaluated on the basis of class attendance, class performance, quizzes/class
tests, assignments, reports, practical examinations, jury viva voce etc. The
distribution of marks in the course will be determined by the teachers
concerned.
(6)
The letter grades and the corresponding grade-points will be awarded for the
theoretical courses in the Regular Examination and for the practical/sessional
courses in accordance with the provisions shown below:

Apart from the letter grades listed above, the students may be awarded other
letter grades for having different status in a course. The letter grade W will
be given for the withheld result of a student in a course. Subject to the
recommendation of the concerned Head of the Department and the approval
of the Vice Chancellor of the University, a student may be awarded the letter
grade E for exemption or waiver of a course. The letter grade P will be
awarded for course(s) the students have passed in previous semester(s).

EXAMINATION, GRADING SYSTEM, GPA
REQUIREMENTS AND
(8) Every course has a certain number of credit hours which describes its
weightage. The credit hours of a theoretical course and the credit hours of a
practical/sessional course refer to contact hours per week and half of the
contact hours per week of the courses respectively. The number of credit
hours a student has completed satisfactorily and the weighted average of the
grade points he/she has maintained will help measure the performance of the
student. Calculation of Grade Point Average (GPA) can be explained as
follows:
C G
i i
Ct
MI
GPA =
SH
= Summation of (Credit hours in a course x Grade points earned in that course)

Total number of credit hours completed
AL
Where:
C = Credit hours in a course
i
G = Grade points earned in that course

REQUIREMENTS AND
(9) The total marks assigned to a theoretical/practical course of study is 100 and
the duration of Semester Final/ Improvement/Clearance/Carry Over
Examination of a theoretical course is 3 hours. The total marks assigned
to continuous assessment (obtained on the basis of class participation,
quizzes/class tests and/or assignments etc.) and the Semester
Final/Clearance/Improvement Examination are 30 & 70 respectively.
However the full marks (100) of a Carry Over course will be allotted
to the Carry Over Examination only and the final performance
of a student in the Carry Over course be evaluated only on
the basis of the marks obtained in the Carry Over Examination.
MI
AL
SH
(10) A student who remains absent in the Semester Final/Clearance/

Improvement/Carry Over Examination of a course of study will be given the
grade F for the course. The total marks and the corresponding grade of the
students who are absent in the examinations of a course will be entered in
the mark sheet of the course considering the mark of the examinations as
zero.
IS
(11) The Clearance Examination of a course will be held only for the students
obtaining the grade F (failed in the course) in the Regular Examination of
the course. The Clearance/Carry Over/Improvement Examination of a
semester will be held over a period of 1 to 2 weeks at the end of the
Semester Final Examination of the semester.
LA
(12) The Clearance Examination of a course will carry 70% of the total marks
assigned to the course; the rest of the mark (30%) will be entered from the
record of the continuous assessment secured earlier by the student when
he/she attended the classes. Whatever is the total mark obtained by the
student, the highest attainable grade with the Clearance Examination is C.
So the grading scale for the students appearing in the Clearance
Examination will be as follows:
NUMERICAL GRADE
45% or above
Less than 40%

REQUIREMENTS AND
A student obtaining the grade F in a maximum of 2 (two) theoretical courses

of a semester will be promoted to the next higher class with carry over in the
failed theoretical course(s) if the cumulative number of the courses including
the number of carry over courses of the previous semester(s) of the student
concerned does not exceed the highest allowable limit of 4 (four). The
students can clear the backlog of the carryover course(s) in the Carryover
Examinations of the relevant semester. Such examinations will be held in the
same manner as the clearance examination.
(14)
If the number of failed courses of a student in a semester exceeds the highest

limit of 2 or if the cumulative number of failed courses including the number
of carry over courses of the student exceeds the highest limit of 4, the
student will not be promoted to the immediate higher class. In such a case,
the student must re-register for the course(s) in which he/she failed in the
semester and bring down the number of failed courses including the carry
over course(s) within the allowable limits of 4 & 2 to be promoted to the next
higher semester.
(15)
If the cumulative number of failed courses including the number of carry over
courses of a student enrolled in 4th year 2nd semester of 4-year bachelor
degree programme or in 5th year 2nd semester of 5-year bachelor degree
programme exceeds the highest limit of 4 (four), the student will have to reregister for the courses of the semester in which he/she failed. If the number
of failed courses of the final semester of the programs exceeds the highest
limit of 2 (two), the student will have to re-register for the courses of the
semester in which he/she failed. A student can appear at the Carry Over
Examination of the courses in the relevant subsequent semester if the
number of failed courses does not exceed the limit of 4 & 2 as specified
above.
(16)
For appearing in the Carry Over Examinations, the students are required to
apply for enrollment within due time in the prescribed application form
available in the office of the Controller of Examinations of the University.

REQUIREMENTS AND
The students who have not been promoted to the next higher semester can
re-register in the subsequent semester for the course(s) (both theoretical &
practical) in which they have failed. The grade(s) secured by the students in
the re-registered course(s) will be considered for the result and Grade Point
Average (GPA) of the students concerned for that semester. However, the
grade(s) obtained by the students in the previous semester will also be
recorded in the transcript/grade card and tabulation sheet of semester only
for chronological sequence. The students are required to apply in the
prescribed application form available in the office of the Registrar of the
University for re-registration. The duly filled in application form must be
submitted within the notified time.
(18)
For the purpose of grade improvement, a student obtaining a passing grade

lower than B in the Regular Examination of a theoretical course can appear
at the relevant Improvement Examination of the semester by canceling the
passing grade of the course secured by him/her. The highest attainable
grade with the Improvement Examination is B and the grade obtained with
the Improvement Examination will be considered for the result and GPA of a
student. But the grade obtained by the student in the Regular Examination
will also be recorded in the tabulation sheet/transcript/grade card only for
chronological sequence. The letter grades will be awarded with the
Improvement Examinations in accordance with the provision given below:

the rest of the mark will be entered in the mark sheet of the course from the
record of the continuous assessment secured earlier by the student when
he/she attended the classes of the semester.
REQUIREMENTS AND
For appearing in the Improvement Examination of a course, the students are

required to apply for enrollment in the prescribed application form available in
the office of the Controller of Examinations at least four (4) days before the
examination date of the course.
(20) A student of a 4-year degree programme can appear in the improvement
examination in a maximum of 4 (four) courses while a student of a 5-year
degree programme can do the same in a maximum of 5 (five) courses in
his/her student career at AUST.

(21) A student failing in any sessional/practical course will have to repeat the
semester. But a student failing in the Surveying Practical course may be
promoted to the next higher class, if otherwise eligible. A student who
remains absent in the classes of the Surveying Practical course due to a
reason acceptable to the administration of the University, will get another
chance to attend the classes & pass the course along with students of other
batches in the next relevant semester.
(22) A student of a semester who fails to submit the report/thesis of the course
Project/Thesis during the semester will have to enroll for the course in the
subsequent semester of his/her submission of the report/thesis.
IS
LA
(23) Students of all bachelor degree programmes are required to attend at least
60% of the classes held in each course of a semester. The students failing to
attend the requisite percentage of classes in any course will not be allowed
to appear at the Semester Final/Clearance/Improvement/Carry Over
Examinations of the course in the semester. However, the University may
condone the shortage of requisite percentage of class attendance on
grounds acceptable to the authority.
(24) All 4-year degree programmes at AUST require completion of all degree
requirements within a maximum period of 7 years while a 5-year degree
programme requires completion of all degree
requirements within a
maximum period of 8 years. Failure to complete all degree requirements
within the given time frame may disqualify a student from continuation of
his/her study at AUST.

Updates in Course Codes
AL
SH
MI
Previously, a course code, for example CSE303, standing for the course
titled Database included 3 digits following an acronym (CSE) for the
department offering the course. The first digit (3) stood for year (third) and
the next two digits (03) represented the code for the course. In the proposed
syllabus, an extra second digit standing for the semester serial number has
been introduced. For example, the above 3rd year 1st semester course has
the course code CSE3103 where the first digit (3) stands for year (third), the
second digit (1) stands for semester (first) and the next digits (03) represent
the code for the course, as before.
