THE CHOICE BASED CREDIT SYSTEM (CBCS) For the TWO YEARS (FOUR SEMESTERS) MASTERS DEGREE PROGRAMMES

in the subject Zoology of Faculty of Science

The University Grants Commission, New Delhi in its XIth plan guidelines directed the Universities in the country to implement the Choice Based Credit System (Semester Scheme) in both the under-graduate and post-graduate programmes. The Choice Based Credit System makes the product of a University at par with the global practices in terms of academic standards and evaluation strategies. In the emerging scenario of Internationalization of Indian Higher Education, it is imperative that the Universities in India should follow this system so that the mobility of their products both within and across the geographical jurisdiction becomes possible.

The Salient Features of the Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) (Semester Scheme):

Each course in a programme shall carry certain number of credits, which normally represent the weightage of a course and are a function of teaching, learning and evaluation strategies such as number of contact hours, the course content, teaching methodology, learning expectations, etc. In the proposed programmes, the credits shall be based on the number of instructional hours per week, generally 1 credit per hour of instruction in theory and 1 credit for 2 hours of practical work per week. In the CBCS system continuous evaluation of the students in all the semesters is done through Internal Assessment Examinations, assignments, Seminars, Project Work, Dissertation, etc. Course contents of each PG programme are designed to meet the ever changing requirements of the industry/job market/needs of society.Each paper/course, Seminar and Project work is assigned a specific number of credits and the marks secured by a student are converted into grade points and credit points. The performance of a student in a semester is expressed as Grade Point Average (GPA) and the combined performance of a student in all the four semesters of the PG programmes.

The other features of the CBCS (Semester Scheme) are:

A. The degree programmes are structured on credit based semester scheme. The relative importance of subjects of study and activities are quantified in terms of credits.

B. The choice based courses may be generally restricted to 10% of the total credits, usually one course per Semester. The choice based courses may be offered within the faculty and/ or across the faculty.

C. The courses offered in a programme may be the core or elective. In the Faculty of Science, the choice based courses shall be opted in lieu of the elective courses, one per semester in any two of the four semesters.

D. The declaration of result is based on the grade point average (GPA) earned towards the end of each semester or the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) earned towards the end of the programme and the corresponding alpha-sign grade.

CBCS Course Structure

1) PG Courses in the CBCS are offered within the existing Semester pattern.2) There shall be Four Semesters in each PG course. The duration of an Academic year consists of two

semesters, each of 15 weeks for teaching. The Academic session in each semester will provide 90 teaching days.

3) There shall be three categories of courses/papers in the PG programmes:a) Compulsory/core courses/papers.b) One Choice Based Elective/specialization course/paper with 2 credits in any two of the first three

semesters. c) One Choice Based Soft skills /Interdisciplinary course/paper with 2 credits in the fourth semester.

5

4) The student shall compulsorily deliver one seminar lecture per paper in each of the four Semesters from the core subject which will be evaluated.

5) In the IV Semester, a student shall undertake a Project work/Dissertation/Field work. The Project work/Dissertation/Field work is a part of the regular course work of the PG Programme in the IV semester. However, students can start their dissertation work from Semester III and the same will be evaluated in Sem. IV.

Medium of Instruction

The medium of instruction shall be strictly in English. The language of question paper and writing the answers shall be English too. Hours of Instruction per week

There shall be a minimum of 24 hours of instructions per week in subjects. These hours may be distributed for lectures, seminars, tutorials, practicals, project work and other modes of instruction which individual papers may require.

Attendance

1. Each course (theory, practical etc.) shall be treated as an independent unit for the purpose of attendance. A student shall attend a minimum of 75% of the total instruction hours in a course including tutorials and seminars in each semester.

2. 75% of attendance is compulsory to all the students. A student shall be considered to have satisfied the requirement of attendance for appearing the semester end examination, if he/she has attended not less than 75% of the number of classes (both regular and interdisciplinary courses) held up to the end of the semester including tests, seminars and practical etc.

3. However, there is a provision for condonation of attendance for the students those who have put up the attendance between 65% and 74% on Medical Grounds on payment of a fee and production of medical certificate.

4. If a student represents his/her institution, University, State or Nation in Sports, NCC, NSS or Cultural or any other officially sponsored activities, he/she shall be eligible to claim the attendance for the actual number of days participated subject to a maximum of 20 days in a Semester based on the specific recommendations of the Head of the Department and Principal of the College concerned.

5. A student who does not satisfy the requirements of attendance shall not be permitted to take internal assessment as well as the Semester end examinations.

Course Pattern

a) In the Zoology subject of Faculty of Science, the average number of credits per semester may be 20 per semester and a total of 80 credits for the programme (depending on the type of the choice based course opted by the student). The credits shall be based on the number of instructional hours per week, generally 1 credit per hour of instruction in theory and 1 credit for 2 hours of practical work per week.

b) In the Zoology subject with practical, there may be 3 theory courses/papers each of 4 hours instruction per week and the number of practical courses per week may be 3 practical courses each of 4 hours duration per week.

c) There may be an elective course (choice-based) in the first three semesters The soft skill course in the forth Semester shall be decided by the Board of Studies by time to time. A list of elective course in each of the three semesters is provided in the curriculum from which students have to select the course. Dissertation/Project work may be given in the fourth semester. One soft skill paper shall be in fourth semester.

d) The choice based courses are generally restricted to 10% of the total credits, usually one Course/paper (s) (theory) per Semester. The choice based courses may be offered within the faculty and/or across the faculty in any two of the semesters.

e) Table given below is a summary of the course patterns, hours of instructions per course/paper per week, marks and credits assigned to different courses/papers in the Post-Graduate Degree programmes in all the semesters in Zoology subject of Science faculty.
