7.1 Rationale for Introduction of CBCS

• The University Grants Commission, New Delhi in its 12th plan guidelines directed the

Universities in the country to implement th e Choice Based Credit System (CBCS Scheme)

in both the under-graduate and postgraduate programs.

Academic Rules and Regulations Governing B. Tech, M. Tech, MBA & MCA Programs

7.2 Advantages of the CBCS

• A change in emphasis in education from teacher-centric to l earner-centric

• Honors "Learner Autonomy." gives students the fr eedom to select based on their individual

learning requiremen ts, interests, and apti tudes.

• Gives students greater freedom to select interdisciplinary courses, alter their majors or

programs, and other things.

• Promotes a wider scope in schooling. Credits can be earned by putting together original

combos.

• Encourages student mobility. you the op tion to study in various locations and at various

hours. It is possible to transfer credit s from one universit y to another.

• Provides greater flexibility for self-paced learning. Students may take up to 30 credits in a

term, including any backlog that has to be given top priority when calculating credits.

• Switching from a schedule that is fixed to one that is dependent on slots. A student will be

able to select the time that works best for them to attend a theoretical class or lab under this.

• A student has the freedom to choose how quickly or slowly they want to learn; they may

also arrange and sequence the papers of their choice, learn how to overcome obstacles

through term and project work, and explore new areas to gain additional information and

skills with add-on capabilities.

7.3 Course Registration

• Additionally, students can talk to the class coordinators and sub ject faculty members for

any related qu eries, as they will counsel the students.

8.2.7 3G Policy (Gallant/Growing/G radual Learner)

• Remedial classes are essential for gradual student s as they provide targeted support to help

bridge learning gaps and reinforce foundational concepts. These classes offer personalized

attention, allowing students to learn at their own pace and build confidence in courses they

find challenging. By addressing individual learning needs, remedial classes enhance

students' academic performance, prevent further difficulties in advanced topics, and ensure

they stay on track with their peers.

Academic Rules and Regulations Governing B. Tech, M. Tech, MBA & MCA Programs

• Remedial teaching is done by providi ng one additional hour of teaching for the courses in

the regular timetable to all those students w ho are diagno sed gradual learners and for those

failing in any of the subsequent Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIEs).

• Faculty members are suggested to couns el the student’s queries during remedial classes and

plan corrective me asures to improve their learning and academic performan ce.

• Departments will make the pro vision in ti metable from the b eginning of semester as 4

lectures per week assigned as Remedial Classes.

• Attendance during remedial classes will be marked on KIET ERP.

• Faculty members will maintain the attendance and academic performance record of gradual

learners.

• In the Institute, 3G policy is introduced in which students are bifurcated as Gradual,

Growing, Gallant Learners with the following criteria:

a. Gradual: Students having Marks less than 40%

b. Growing: Students having marks between 40% and 60%

c. Gallant: Students having marks greater than 60%

• At the initiati on of Academic Session (Odd/Even semester), faculty members are suggested

to prepare basket analysis of the students for their allotted course’s and categorize the

students based on their performance into gallant/growing/gradual learner.

a. Gradual Learner students: Departments will identify gradual learner students based

on performance in class test, MSE1 or MSE2. Departments shall plan remedial

classes/provide extra support/guidance etc. to improve their academic performance.

b. Gallant/Growing Learner students: Departments will identify gallant/growing

learner students and plan to associate those students in industry or iented

projects/advanced MO OCs courses/coding competitions and research activities etc.

• The subject wise list for gallant/growing/gradual learner will be updated according to

student’s performance after MSE1 and MSE2 examinations.

*Co-curricular & Extra-cu rricular activities

• Co-curricular and extracurricular activities are crucial to the overall development of

students' personalities. Students must invest a great deal of time and effort in extracurricular

and co-curricular activities, often at the expense of their academic performance. They must

therefore be given something in the form of an aw ard.

• In view of the above, it is suggested that UG students who participate in co-curricular and

extracurricular activities at National or Inte rnational Level receive the rewards as part of

their internal m arks in Continu ous Assessment 4 (CA4) for each theory course.
