Tathya.in: BPUT graduate requirements changed; old year back system removed
October 27th, 2007
Following is from Tathya.in.
Accordingly it was decided that each student will have to receive 6 Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) out of 10 to be eligible to pass the B.Tech degree.
However in the first year itself the student has to receive 4.5 CGPA, so that he/she can be promoted.
But by the end of the course he will have to get 6 CGPA to receive the degree.
Though B.Tech program is for 4 years but a student will be allowed 7 years time for clearance of the degree.
The student, who will be enrolled in 2008-09, if fails consecutively in 3 semesters will be out of the university, said a spokesman of BPUT.
It was decided to set up a Faculty Training Institute to train the faculty members of the constituent colleges.
The proposed system is probably similar to the system followed at IITs. The year back system is what is followed at most colleges in the rest of the country. In the US universities there is no year back system. However there are pre-requsites for classes. So if subject A is a prerequisite for subject B then one can not normally take B before he/she has passed A. However, the courses that are prerequisites for other courses and are in the critical path to graduation are offered every semester.
One question to the readers: If a student fails in a course in a semetser and takes the exam for that course the next semester, what happens to the internal marks. Does he/she have a chance to improve them? How?

It will not help in improving the internal marks.Rather it will create a disinterest in the minds of the examiners.Due to the new BPUT graduate requirement the average students of B.TECH will be in a confusion if they will pass the exam or not.

No, One shouldn’t be allowed to improve his internal marks. If allowed it will invite to more corruption as the present curriculum is running on such a procedure most of the schollar students are turtured.

one should be allowed to take internals so that he will be able to improve his grades.
