Duration of Examination : To qualify the course a student is required to secure a minimum of 40 % marks in aggregate including the

semester end examination and teachers continuous evaluation.(i.e. both internal and external).

A candidate who secures less than 40% of marks in a course shall be deemed to have failed in that course.

The student should have at least 50% marks in aggregate to clear the semester. In case a student has more

than 40% in each course, but less than 50% overall in a semester, he/she shall re-appear in courses where

the marks are less than 50% to achieve the required aggregate percentage (of 50%) in the semester.

Question Paper Structure

1. The question paper shall consist of eight questions. Out of which first question shall be of short answer

type (not exceeding 50 words) and will be compulsory. Question No. 1 shall contain 8 parts representing

all units of the syllabus and students shall have to answer any five (weightage 4 marks each).

2. Out of the remaining seven questions, students shall be required to attempt any five questions. There will

be minimum one and maximum two questions from each unit of the syllabus. The weightage of Question

No. 2 to 8 shall be 10 marks each.

students will also be accordingly informed by the course coordinator within three weeks

of the commencement of the semester.

Preparation of the Seminar: 4. The student shall meet the guide for the necessary guidance for their preparation for the

seminar.

5. During the next two to four weeks the student will read the primary literature related to

the topic under the guidance of supervisor.

6. After necessary collection of data and literature survey, the students must prepare a

report. The report shall be arranged in the sequence as per following format & lay out

plan :-

ii) The amount of work put in by the student is not adequate;

iii) The report does not represent the actual work that was done / expected

to be done;

iv) Any other objection (Please elaborate)

d. Abstract:- A portion of the seminar grade will be based on the abstract. The abstract will be

graded according to the adherence to accepted principles of English grammar and according to

the adherence to the format described below.

The seminar abstract is an important record of the coverage of your topic and provides a valuable

source of leading references for students and faculty alike. Accordingly, the abstract must serve

as an introduction to your seminar topic. It will include the key hypotheses, the major scientific

findings and a brief conclusion. The abstract will be limited to 500 words, excluding figures,

tables and references. The abstract will include references to the research articles upon which

the seminar is based as well as research articles that have served as key background material.
