 1. Introduction
From The academic session 2007-2008, the Engineering College will introduce a course system for
undergraduate studies. The rules and regulations for administering undergraduate curricula through the
Course System will be applicable to students henceforth. This system has been introduced with an aim to
create a continuous, even and consistent workload throughout the semester for the students. This
curriculum does not demand the same rate of academic progress from all students for obtaining the
degree.

1.1 The Course System

The salient features of the Course System are as follows:

 Introduction of Letter Grade and Grade Points instead of numerical grades.

 Introduction of more optional courses to enable the students to select courses according to their
individual needs and preferences.
 Continuous evaluation of student's performance.
 Abolition of a pass or a fail on an annual basis.
 Providing flexibility to allow a student to progress at desired pace depending on own ability or
convenience, subject to some regulations on minimum earned credits and minimum Grade Point
Average (GPA) requirements.
 Student-teacher interaction and contact.

Besides the professional courses pertaining to each discipline, the undergraduate curriculum gives a
strong emphasis on acquiring thorough knowledge in the basic sciences of Mathematics, Physics and
Chemistry. Due importance is also given on the study of several subjects in Humanities and social
Sciences.

The first two semesters of Bachelor's degree programs generally consist of courses in basic engineering
and architecture (Background) subject; while the third and subsequent semesters go on to develop
competence in specific disciplines.

2. Student Admission

Students are admitted in undergraduate curricula in the Department of Civil Engineering, Electrical and
Electronic Engineering,& Computer Science and Engineering, Office serves as the Admissions Office
and deals with course registration in addition to student admission.

2.1 Number of Semester in a year

There will be two Semester (Semester I and Semester II) in an academic year. In addition to these two
regular Semesters there may be a short Semester in the intervening period between the end of Semester II
and the commencement of Semester I of the following academic session. During the short Semester,
students may take additional courses to make up deficiencies in credit and GPA requirements for
Bachelor's degree less time than the normal duration. Respective departments will take the decisions
about courses to be offered during each short Semester depending upon the availability of course teachers
and number of students willing to take a particular course.

2
 3. Duration of Semesters
The duration of each of Semester I and Semester II will be 18 weeks that will be used as follows:

Classes 14 weeks
Mid-semester break 1 weeks
Recess before Semester Final Examination 2 weeks
Semester Final Examination (approximately) 2 weeks
Summer Vacation/ Winter Vacation/all
Other Festivals 7 weeks
Total 26 weeks

Normally 1 week of mid- Semester break is provided after 7 weeks of classes, which is followed by
another 7 weeks of classes. The duration of a short Semester will be around 8 weeks of which about 7
weeks will be spent for class lectures and one week for Semester Final Examination.

4. Course Pattern and Credit Structure

The Undergraduate program is covered by a set of theoretical courses along with a set of
laboratory/sessional courses to support them.

4.1 Course Designation System

Each course is designated by a two to three letter code identifying the department offering the code
followed by a three-digit number having the following interpretation :

 The first digit corresponds to the Semester in which the course is normally taken by the students.

 The second digit is reserved for departmental use. It usually identifies a specific area of study
within the department.

 The last digit is an odd number for theoretical courses and an even number for sessional courses.

CSE 101 Introduction to Computer Systems

Course Title

Odd digit designates a theoretical course

Reserved for departmental use

Signifies 1st Semester course

Department Identification

3
CSE 102 Introduction to Computer Systems

Course Title

Even digit designates a sessional course

Reserved for departmental use

Signifies 1st Semester course

Department Identification

4.2 Assignment of Credits

The assignment of credits to a theoretical course follows a different rule from that of a sessional course.

 Theoretical Courses : One lecture per week per Semester is equivalent to one credit.
 Sessional Courses : Credits for sessional courses is half of the class hours per week per
Semester.

Credits are also assigned to project and thesis work taken by the students. The amount of credits assigned
to such work varies from one discipline to another.

4.3 Types of Courses

The type of courses included in the undergraduate curricula are divided into the following groups :
 Core Courses : In each discipline, a number of courses are identified as core courses, which form
the nucleus of the respective bachelor's degree program. A student has to complete all the
designated core courses of his/her discipline.
 Optional Courses : Apart from the core courses, the students can choose from a set of optional
courses. A required number of optional courses from a specified group have to be chosen.

5. Course Offering and Instruction

The Courses to be offered in a particular semester are announced and published in the Course Catalog
along with the tentative Semester Schedule before the end of the previous Semester. The courses to be
offered in any Semester will be decided by the respective Board of Undergraduate Studies (BUGS).
Respective departments may arrange to offer one or core courses in any Semester depending upon the
number of students who dropped or failed the course in the previous Semester.

6. Departmental Monitoring Committee

Consistent with its resilient policy to keep pace with new developments in the field of science and
technology, the Engineering College updates its course curriculum at frequent intervals (at least every
three years). Such updating aims not only to include the expanding frontiers of knowledge in the various
fields but also to accommodate the changing social, industrial and professional needs of the country. This
can be done through the deletion and modification of some of the courses and also through the
introduction of new ones.

4
The Board of Undergraduate Studies (BUGS) of each department forms a Departmental Monitoring
Committee with three teachers of the department. This committee is in charge of monitoring and
evaluation the performance of the course system within the department. In addition to other teachers of
the department, the committee also may propose from time to the Board of Undergraduate Studies
(BUGS) any changes or modifications requited for upgrading the undergraduate Curriculum and the
Course System.

7. Teacher Student Interaction

The system encourages students to come in close contact with the teachers. For promotion of a high level
of teacher-student interaction, each student is assigned to an Adviser and the student is free to discuss
with his adviser all academic matters. Students are also encouraged to meet with other teachers any time
for help and guidance in academic matters.

8. Student Adviser
One adviser is normally appointed for a group of students by the Board of Undergraduate Studies
(BUGS) of the concerned department. The adviser each student about the courses to be taken in each
semester by discussing the academic program of that particular semester with the student. However, it is
also student's responsibility to keep regular contact with his/her adviser who will review and eventually
approve the student's specific plan of study and monitor subsequent progress of the student. The adviser
is usually in the rank of an Assistant professor or above of the concerned department.

For a student of second and subsequent Semesters, the number and nature of courses for which he/she
can register is decided on the basis of academic performance during the previous semester. The adviser
may permit the student to drop one or more courses bases on previous academic performance.

9. Course Registration
Any student who uses classroom or laboratory facilities time is required to register formally. Upon
admission to Engineering College each student is assigned to a student adviser with whose consent and
advice the student can register for courses he intends to take during a given Semester.

9.1 Registration Procedure

At the commencement of each Semester, each student has to fill up a course registration form in
consultation with and under the guidance of his/her advisor. The date, time and venue of registration are
announced in advance by the registrar's Office. Much counseling and advising are accomplished at this
time. It is absolutely essential that all the students be present for registration at the specified time. Late
registration is, however, permitted during the first week on payment of a late registration fee.

9.2 Pre-conditions for Registration

For first year students, department-wise enrollment/admission is mandatory prior to registration. At the
beginning of the first Semester, an orientation program is conducted for them where they are handed over
with the registration package on production of the enrollment slip/proof of admission.
Any student other than freshmen having outstanding dues to the university of a hall of residence is not
permitted to register. Each student must clear their dues and obtain a clearance certificate, on the
production of which, he/she will be given necessary Course Registration Forms to perform course
registration.

5
 9.3 Limits on the Credit Hours to be taken
A student must be enrolled for at least 15 credit hours and is allowed to take a maximum of 24 credit
hours. A student must enroll for the sessional courses prescribed in a particular Semester within the
allowable credit hour limits. In special cases where it is not possible to allot the minimum required 15
credit hours to a student, the concerned BUGS may approve a lesser number of credit hours to suit
individual requirements. Such cases are only applicable to students requiring less than 15 credit hours
for graduation.

9.4 Registration Deadline

Each student must register for the courses to be taken before the commencement of each Semester. Late
registration is permitted only during the first week of classes. Late registration after this date will not be
accepted unless the student submits a written appeal to the registrar through the concerned Head of the
department and can document extenuating circumstances such as medical problems from the Concern
Medical Officer of the Engineering College or some other academic commitments which prohibits
enrollment prior to the last date of registration.

9.5 Penalty for Late Registration

Students who fail to register during the designated dates for registration are charged a late registration fee
of Amount decided by the affiliating authority . This is not waived the reason behind the delay in
registration.

9.6 Course Add/Drop

A student has some limited options to add or delete courses from the registration list. Addition of courses
is allowed only within the first two weeks of a regular Semester and only during the first week of a short
Semester. Dropping a course is permitted within the first four weeks of a regular Semester and two
weeks of a short Semester.

Any student willing to add/ drop courses has to be done in consultation with and under the guidance of
the student's respective adviser. The original copy of the Course Adjustment Form has to be submitted to
the Registrar's Office, where the required number of photocopies are made for distribution to the
concerned adviser, Head, Controller of Examinations and the student.

All changes must be approved by the adviser and the Head of the concerned department. The Course
Adjustment Form has to be submitted after being signed by the concerned persons. The respective course
teacher's consent is also required.

9.7 Withdrawal from a Semester

If a student is unable to complete the Semester Final Examination due to serious illness or
serious accident, he/she may apply to the Head of the degree awarding department for total
withdrawal from the Semester within a week after the end of the Semester Final Examination.
However, he/she may choose not to withdraw any laboratory/sessional/design if the grade
obtained in such a course is `D' or better. The application must be supported by medical
certificate from the Concern Medical Officer of the Engineering College. The Academic Council
will take the final decision about such applications.
6
 10. The Grading System
The total performance of a student in a given course is based on a scheme of continuous assessment. For
theory courses this continuous assessment is made through a set of quizes, class evaluation, class
participation, homework assignment and a Semester final examination. The assessment in laboratory/
sessional courses is made through observation of the student at work during the class, viva-voce during
laboratory hours and quizes.

Each course has a certain number of credits, which describes its corresponding weights. A letter grade
with a specified number of grade points is awarded to each course for which a student is registered. A
student's performance is measured both by the number of credits completed satisfactorily and by the
weighted average of the grade point earned. A minimum grade point average (GPA) is essential for
satisfactory progress. A minimum number of earned credits also have to be acquired in order to qualify
for the degree.

Letter grades and corresponding grade points will be awarded in accordance to the provisions shown
below.

Grade Grade Points Numerical Markings

A+ 4.0 80% and above
A 3.75 75% to below 80%
A- 3.50 70% to below 75%
B+ 3.25 65% to below 70%
B 3.00 60% to below 65%
B- 2.75 55% to below 60%
C+ 2.50 50% to below 55%
C 2.25 45% to below 50%
C- 2.00 40% to below 45%
F* 0.00 below 40%
I** -- Incomplete
X -- Continuation (For project and thesis/design courses)
S -- Satisfactory (non credit courses)
U -- Unsatisfactory (non credit courses)
W** -- Withdrawal

7
 * Subject in which the student gets F grades shall not be counted towards credit hours requirements and
for the calculation of Grade Point Average (GPA).

** Given only a student is unable to complete the course because of circumstances beyond his/her
control, it must be made up by the close of next two semesters or the incomplete grade becomes a
failure. He/She may, however, be allowed to register without further payment of tuition fees for that
course.

*** A student must withdraw officially from a course within two working weeks of the commencement
of the semester or else his/her grade in that course shall be recorded as failure unless he is eligible to get
a grade of I (incomplete). A student may be permitted to withdraw and change his/her course within the
specified period with the approval of his/her adviser, Head of the department and the respective
teacher(s) concerned.

11. Distribution of Marks

Forty percent (40%) of marks of a theoretical course shall be allotted for continuous assessment, i.e.
quizes, home assignments, class evaluation and class performance. The rest of the marks will be allotted
to the Semester Final Examination that is conducted centrally by the Engineering College. There are
internal and external examiners for each course in the Semester Final Examination of three hours
duration. Distribution of marks for a given course is as follows.

Class Participation 10%

Homework assignment and quizes 30%
Final Examination (3 hours) 60%

Total 100%

Basis for awarding marks for class participation and attendance will be as follows.

Attendance Marks

90% and above 10

85% to less than 90 % 9
80% to less than 85 % 8
75% to less than 80 % 7
70% to less than 75 % 6
65% to less than 70 % 5
60 to less than 65 % 4
Below 60% 0

8
The number of quizes of a course shall be n+1, where is the number of credits of the course. Evaluation
of performance in quizes will be on the basis of the best n quizzes. The scheme of continuous assessment
that a particular teacher wishes to follow for a course will be announced on the first day of classes.

12. Calculation of GPA

Grade point Average (GPA) is the weighted average of the grade points obtained of all the courses
passed/Completed by a student.

For example, if a student passes /completes n courses in a Semester having credits of C 1, C2......Cn and
his grade points in these courses are G1, G2....... Gn respectively then.

C
i l
i * Gi
GPA = n

C
i l

The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is the weighted average of the GPA obtained in all the
Semesters passed/ Completed by a student. For example, if a student passes/completes n Semester having
total credits of TC1, TC2, .....TCn and his GPA in these semesters are GPA1, GPA2, GPAn respectively
then .

IV 21.50 4.00 81.00
Total 83.00 321.565

CGPA = 321.565/83=3.87

13. Incomplete Courses

A student will not be allowed to take any courses of 1st year at 3rd year and 2nd year at 4th year.

14. Classification of Students

At the Sylhet Engineering College (SEC), regular students are classified according to the number of
credit hours completed/earned towards a degree. The following classification applies to all the students :

Level Credit Hours Earned

Engineering Architecture
Semester I 0 to 36 0 to 35
Semester II 37 to 72 36 to 70
Semester III 73 to 108 71 to 113
Semester IV 109 and above 114 to 154
Semester V 155 and above

However, before the commencement of each semester all students other than freshmen are classified into
the categories:

Category 1 : This category consists of students who have passed all the courses described for the
semester. A student belonging to this category will be eligible to register for all courses
prescribed for the upcoming semester.

Category 2 : This category consists of students who have earned a minimum of 15 credits but do not
belong to category 1. A student belonging to this category is advised to take at least one
course less since he might have to register for one or more backlog courses as prescribed
by his/her adviser.

10
Category 3 : This category consists of students who have failed to earn the minimum required 15
credits in the previous semester. A student belonging to this category is advised to take at
least two courses less than a category 1 student subject to the constraint of registering at
least 15 credits. However, he will also be required registering for backlog courses as
prescribed by the adviser.

15. Performance Evaluation

The performance of a student will be evaluated in semesters of two indices, viz. Semester Grade Point
Average and Cumulative Grade Point Average which is the grade average for all the semesters
completed.

Students will be considered to be making normal progress toward a degree if their Cumulative Grade
point Average (CGPA) for all work attempted is 2.20 or higher. Students who regularly maintain a
semester GPA of 2.20 or better are making good progress toward the degrees and are in good standing
with the university. Students who fail to maintain this minimum rate of progress will not be in good
standing. This can happen when any one of the following conditions exists.

1. The semester GPA falls below 2.20.

2. The Cumulative Grade point Average (CGPA) falls below 2.20
3. The earned number of credits falls below 15 times the number of semesters attended.

All such students can make up their deficiencies in GPA and credit requirements by completing courses
in the subsequent semester(s) and backlog courses, if there are any, with better grades. When the
minimum GPA and credit requirements are achieved the student is again returned to good standing.

16. Probation and Suspension

Undergraduate students who fail to maintain the minimum rate of progress as mentioned before may be
placed on academic probation. The objective of the academic probation is to remind or warn the student
that satisfactory progress towards graduation is not being made. A student may be placed on academic
probation when either of the following conditions exists.

1. The semester GPA below 2.20

2. The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) falls below 2.20

Students on probation are subject to such restrictions with respect to courses and extracurricular activities
as may be imposed by the respective Dean Faculty.

The minimum period of probation is one semester, but the usual period is for one academic year. This
gives the student an opportunity to improve the GPA through the completion of additional course work
during the period the student is on probation. The probation may be extended for additional semesters
until the students achieve an overall GPA of 2.20 or better.

An academic probation is not to be taken lightly. A student on academic probation who fails to maintain
a GPA of a least 2.20 during two consecutive academic years may be suspended from the engineering
college. A student who has been suspended may petition to the Head of the department, but this petition
will not be considered until the student has been suspended for at least one full semester.
11
Petitions for reinstatement must set forth clearly the reasons for the previous unsatisfactory academic
records and it must delineate the new conditions that have been created to prevent the recurrence of such
work. Each such petition is considered individually on its own merits.

After consideration of the petition, and perhaps after consultation with the student, the Head of the
department in some cases reinstates the student if this is the first suspension of that student. However, a
second suspension from the engineering college will be regarded as final and absolute.

17. Measures for Helping Academically Weak Students

First, academically weak students will be identified according to the following criteria :

1. The semester GPA falls below 2.20

2. The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) falls below 2.20
3. The earned number of credits falls below 15 times the number of semesters attended.

The following provisions will be made as far as possible to help such academically weak students to
enable them to complete their studies within the maximum allowable period of 7 years in Engineering.

1. All such students may be given a load of not more than four courses in the semester following
the semester in which the student's GPA was below 2.20
2. Some basic and core courses maybe offered during the short Semester in order to enable
academically weak students to partially make up for the reduced work load during the regular
semesters.
18. Ruler for Special Courses
A Special course is a self-study course, but is amongst the regular courses listed in the course catalog.
This type of course is offered only in exceptional cases. The following rules are applicable to all special
courses:

 Whether a course is to be floated as a special course will be decided by the Head of the
concerned department in consultation with the teacher/course coordinator concerned. Such a
decision also has to be reported to the Academic Council.
 A special course may be offered in a particular semester only if the course is not running in that
semester as a regular course.
 The special course is offered to a student in his/her last semester if it helps him/her to graduate in
that semester.
 A student is allowed to register for a maximum of two courses on a self-study basis.
 A special course cannot be utilized for grade improvement purposes.
 Normally no lecture will be delivered for a special course but laboratory/design classes may be
held if they form part of a course.
 The course coordinator/course teacher will assign homework; administer quizzes, and final
examination for giving assessments at the end of the semester.

19. Ruler for Courses offered in Short Semester

 The courses to be run during the Short Semester shall be decided on the recommendations of
departments on the basis of essential deficiencies to be made up by a group of students. Once
floated, other students could be allowed to register in those courses subject to the capacity
constraints and satisfaction of prerequisites.
 Student will be allowed to register in a maximum of two courses during the short Semester.

12
  A course may be given a weight of up to 6 credits in any short Semester following a
graduation/final semester if he/she is short by a maximum of 6 earned credits only, on a self-
study basis with no formal instruction. In a self-study course, there will be a final examination,
beside the continuous assessment.
 A certain fee for each credit hour to be registered to be borne by the students who enroll during
short Semester.

20. Minimum Earned Credit and GPA Requirement for

Obtaining Degree
Minimum credit hour requirements for the award of bachelor's degree in engineering (B.Sc. Engg) will
be decided by the respective BUGS. However, at least 159.5 credit hours for engineering eligible for
graduation, and this must include the specified core courses.

The minimum GPA requirement for obtaining a Bachelor's degree in engineering is 2.20

A student may take additional courses with the consent of his/her Adviser in order to raise GPA, but
he/she may take a maximum of 15 such additional credits in engineering beyond respective credit-hour
requirements for Bachelor's degree during his/her entire period of study.

20.1 Application for Graduation and Award of Degree

A student who has fulfilled all the academic requirements for Bachelor's degree will have to apply to the
Controller of Examinations through his/her Adviser for graduation. Provisional degree will be awarded
on completion of credit and GPA requirements. Such provisional degree will be confirmed by the
Academic Council.

21. Time Limits for Completion of Bachelor's Degree

A student must complete his/her studies within a maximum period of seven years for engineering.

22. Attendance, Conduct and Discipline

The engineering college has strict rules regarding the issues of attendance in class and regarding the
disciplinary issues.

22.1 Attendance
All students are expected to attend classes regularly. The engineering college believes that attendance is
necessary for effective learning. The first responsibility of a student is to attend classes regularly, and one
is required to attend at least 60% of all classes held in any course.

13
 22.2 Conduct and Discipline
A student is expected conform to a high standard of discipline and conduct himself/herself, within and
outside the precincts of the engineering college in a manner befitting the students of a university of
national importance. He is expected to show due courtesy and consideration to the employees of the
engineering college and Hostels of Residence, good neighborliness to his fellow students and the teachers
of the engineering college and pay due attention and courtesy to visitors.

To safeguard its ideal of scholarship, character and personal behavior, the engineering college reserves
the right to withdraw any student at any time for any reason deemed sufficient.

23. Absence during a Semester

A student should not be absent from quizes, tests, etc. during the semester. Such absence will naturally
lead to reduction in points/marks which count towards the final grade. Absence in the Semester Final
Examination will result in an 'F' grade in the corresponding course.
A student who has been absent for short periods, up to a maximum of three weeks due to illness, should
approach the course teacher(s) or the course coordinator(s) for make-up quizes or assignments
immediately upon return to classes. Such request has to be supported by medical certificate from a
Concern Medical Officer. The medical certificate issued by a registered medical practitioner (with the
registration number shown explicitly on the certificates) will also be acceptable only those cases where
the student has valid reasons for his absence from the engineering college.
24. Honors
Candidates for Bachelor's degree in Engineering will be awarded the degree with honors if their
Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is 3.75 or better.
24.1 Dean's List
As a recognition of excellent academic performance, the names of students obtaining an average GPA of
3.75 or above in two consecutive regular semesters of an academic year may be published in the Dean's
List in each Department. Students who have received an 'F' grade in any course during any of the two
regular semesters will not be considered for the Dear's List that year.
24.2 Gold Medal
Gold medal for outstanding students of the Computer Science and Engineering graduates will be
presented to the student who secures the first position in the entire class and whose CGPA is above 3.75.
The student must have completed his/her undergraduate coursework within four consecutive academic
years and have a satisfactory attendance to his credit.
