The academic system at NIT, Jalandhar is framed on a credit based semester examination system.The credit system envisages a continuous evaluation of student’s performance, and provides flexibilityfor academic progress at an optimum pace based on individual ability and convenience, subject to theconstraint of the minimum requirements for continuation in the academic programme.The student is awarded a letter grade from the prescribed grading system in each course registeredby him. For each pass grade, the students accumulate the course credits as earned credits. Theacademic performance of the student is indicated in terms of the number of credits that he/she earnsand the weighted grade point average. A specified minimum number of credits should be acquired onsemester or session basis in order to qualify for continuation in the academic programme and theaward of degree.

Credits

Each lecture/tutorial hour per week per semester is assigned one credit. Each laboratory hour perweek per semester is assigned half credit. However, some courses are preparatory in nature andhave half the credit weightage of a normal course. The courses without credit are termed as noncredit(NC) courses.

NP - Audit Pass -NF - Audit Fail -

Subject to confirmation based on standard deviation, if the sample size is greater than 20, and isflexible to the recommendation of the individual course coordinators with proper justification.

The grades will be awarded to a student in each registered course including a laboratory course,based on his/her performance evaluated through a prescribed scheme of evaluation. In theorycourses the evaluation is weighted on class tests, tutorial work, home assignment and semesterexaminations in prescribed proportions. The recommended weightage for class tests is 30%-40%,assignments/tutorial work is 10%-20% and End Semester Exam is 50%. In the laboratory andpractical classes, it would be weighted equally on the basis of regular practical work and anexamination conducted for the purpose.The credits for the courses in which a student has obtained “E “ (minimum passing grade for a course) or a higher grade will be considered as credits earned byhim/her. In addition, courses up to a maximum of 8 credits in case of B Tech students in which astudent has got “NP “grade will also count towards his/her earned credits. Any course in which astudent has obtained “W “ or “NF “grade will not be counted towards his/her earned credits.For the other (elective) courses in which “U” “W” grade have been obtained, t he student may take thesame course or any other course from the same category when it is offered next. Further, “U “ gradessecured in any course stay permanently on the grade card. The weightage of these grades is notcounted in the calculation of the SGPA and CGPA.An “I” grade denotes incomplete performance in any course due to absence at the end of semester.Upon completion of all course requirements, the “I” grade is converted to a regular grade.These grade s (NP and NF) are awarded in a course that the student opts to audit. Audit applicationsare allowed during the first four weeks of a semester. The audit pass (NP) grade is awarded if aminimum “E” grade is obtained in the course and attendance is above 75% in the classes. If either ofthese requirements is not fulfilled, the audit fail (NF) grade is awarded. In courses, where NP grade isobtained, the corresponding course credits are counted towards earned credits. The grades obtainedin a n audit course are not considered in the calculation of SGPA or CGPA.A “W” ; grade is awarded in a course where the student has opted to withdraw from the course.Withdrawal from a course is permitted until one week after the class test-I.

Grade Point Averages

The performance of a student will be evaluated in terms of two indices, viz. the Semester Grade PointAverage (SGPA) which is the Grade Point Average f or a semester and Cumulative Grade PointAverage (CGPA) which is the Grade Point Average for all the completed semesters at any point oftime. The SGPA is calculated on the basis of grades obtained in all courses, except audit courses,registered for in the semester.

Department of Chemistry

1. INTRODUCTION

The Department of Chemistry – NITJ is one of the fourteen Departments of the Institute.

The coherent, cohesive and homely environment of the Department is attributed to the

students, faculty and staff with tremendous potential and opportunities to grow academically,

emotionally and spiritually.

The Department started functioning in 1989 for teaching undergraduate (B Tech) students. M

Sc and Ph D Programs were initiated in July 2006.

The department is striving to emerge as a premier Centre of Chemistry teaching and research of the

country.

Within a short span of six years of commencement of post graduate classes the Department has

achieved results which reflect upon the growth pattern of the Department.
