Academic Program
The bachelor degree program requires 156 credits and is extended over a period of 4 years. This program is to be completed in 12 semesters, each year having 3 semesters namely:
Spring : February – May
Summer: June – September
Fall: October – January
Each semester will be of 14 weeks duration (out of 14 weeks 13 weeks for theory/lab classes with midterm examination and the last week of the semester is allocated for final exam). Midterm Examination will be held without hampering normal classes.
- 3 Credit (Theory) means 180 minutes/week

| Incomplete | “I” |
CGPA calculation:
Student’s performance will be evaluated on the basis of Grade Point Average (GPA) semester wise and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of total completed courses.
The CGPA will be computed in the following manner:
CGPA =∑(Grade point X Credits)/∑Credits
Performance Evaluation:
The performance of a student in a course is evaluated on the basis of class assessment (attendance, class test and assignments/viva) and lab/theory exams. Each course will be marked out of 100 distributed as:
| Theory Courses | Lab Courses | |||
| Class Attendence | 10% | Lab Attendence | 10% | |
| Quiz | 15% | Presentation | 10% | |
| Assignment/Viva | 5% | Class Performance | 20% | |
| Midterm Examination | 30% | Assignment | 20% | |
| Final | 40% | Final | 40% | |
| Total | 100% | Total | 100% |

Course Offer
Course Overview
The Department of Computer Science & Engineering offers a 4 year Bachelor of Science degree program for prospective undergraduate students.
This curriculum is offered for students seeking a extensive and profound knowledge of the theory, design, and applications of digital computers. The first two years are spent on basic work in mathematics and physics, and an introduction to the fundamental areas of computer science. The third year completes the work in basic computer science and requires electives to broaden the academic background of the student. During the fourth year, each student is provided with options to obtain a deeper understanding of topics in which the student has particular interest.
