ENGINEERING EXAMINATIONS GENERAL REGULATIONS



The Examinations for First Engineering, Second Engineering and Third Engineering will be held in Summer and
Autumn.
Pass and Honours in connection with the First, Second and the Third Engineering Examinations may be awarded at the
Summer Examinations. At the Autumn Examinations, Pass only may be awarded unless the prior approval of the
Faculty has been granted.
The BE Degree Examination will be held in Summer and Pass and Honours may be awarded on the results.
Subject
For the purposes of these regulations a subject is defined by the presence of a mark in the column headed “subject marks”
and a subject may be examined by a single examination paper, a group of examination papers or performance in year’s
work.
Pass Standard
 The Pass Standard is 40% in each subject for all examinations.
 No candidate shall pass the Examination whose Drawings, Practicals, Orals, Design and other elements of the Year’s
Work fail to satisfy the Engineering Examiners, in which case a pass mark will not be granted, and an “Inadequate
Result” (IR) will be returned by the examiners for the subject, Year’s Work.
 Where the examination of a subject involves more than one paper or more than one section of a paper or a combination
of a written paper and laboratory or practical work, the examiners may, as a result of an unacceptably poor
performance in either an individual paper or section of a paper or in either the written paper or laboratory/practical
component of a subject, refuse to award a pass mark and an “Inadequate Result” (IR) for the subject may be returned
by the examiners. Any candidate who fails to achieve a satisfactory standard or whose attendance is unsatisfactory in
the laboratory or practical aspect of a subject, may be required to sit a practical examination. Failure to demonstrate an
adequate level of competence in the practical examination will lead to an “Inadequate Result” (IR) for the subject
being returned by the examiners.
 In the case of examinations for students in Chemical or Mechanical Engineering, an IR shall not be returned for any
subject without prior discussion with the internal examiners in Chemical or Mechanical Engineering.
Compensation
 In First, Second and Third Examinations compensation between subjects may be exercised provided that compensation
shall not as a rule be allowed:
 If the candidate’s marks fall below 30% in any subject or the candidate has obtained an Inadequate Result (IR) in any
subject.
 Where the candidate’s marks fall below 40% in more than two subjects or, in more than three subjects in the following
cases:
2nd Year Agricultural and Food Engineering;
2nd Year Mechanical Engineering;
3rd Year Agricultural and Food Engineering;
3rd Year Mechanical Engineering;
3rd Year Electronic and Electrical Engineering;
 Compensation may be exercised only when a candidate’s surplus marks are at least double the deficiency. In
calculating surplus marks on Year’s Work only marks in excess of 50% should be allowed for compensation.
 If the First, Second or Third Examination in Summer be not passed as a whole the marks of a failed candidate in all
subjects in which a Pass level has been reached may, on the recommendation of the Examiners, be carried forward to
the Autumn Examination of the same year, provided that the candidate has obtained at least 45% in each of three
subjects or has reached a Pass level in four.
 Marks carried forward from the Summer Examinations may be used for compensation between subjects at the Autumn
Examinations.
 A candidate who fails the Examination in Autumn must present all subjects at the next attempt in the following year;
however a candidate who obtains a Pass mark in Year’s Work may retain this mark until the Examination is passed.
Time Limit for Passing Examinations
“Old regulations” examination papers will be available for one year only following a change in the syllabus of any subject.
Optional Examination Papers
Where a candidate for the BE Degree Examination is permitted to sit more than the minimum number of optional
Examination Papers, the marks in the best of the appropriate number of Examination Papers will be credited.
95
Exemption
In the BE Degree Examination a candidate who obtains at least 45% of the marks allocated to a subject may be exempted
from further examination in that subject.
Honours Standard
 In the First, Second and Third Examinations, First Class Honours about 70%; Second Class Honours about 60%.
Honours to be awarded on the aggregate for the whole examination.
 In the BE Degree Examination, all branches: First Class Honours, about 70%; Second Class Honours I, about 62%,
Second Class Honours II, about 55%.
 A candidate who passes by compensation in one subject is eligible for consideration for the award of Honours.
 A candidate who passes by compensation in more than one subject is not eligible for the award of Honours.
 Honours will be awarded only to candidates who complete the examination in the Summer following the first
registration for the particular year of the course.
 In the assessment of the BE Degree in Chemical Engineering, the class of degree awarded and the ranking in the class
is based on a composite mark calculated by adding 30% of the overall percentage mark obtained by the student in the
Third Year examination in the summer following the first registration for the Third Year course to 70% of the overall
percentage mark obtained in the BE Degree examination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in exceptional
circumstances, the judgement of an individual student may be based solely upon the marks obtained in the Degree
Examination, on the prior recommendation of the Faculty to the Academic Council.

For the award of a First Class Honours Degree in Chemical Engineering a candidate will be required:
i.
ii.

to obtain approximately 70% in the adjusted overall mark as explained above, and
to obtain a good honours mark (at least 62%) in the subject Year’s Work in the Final Year.
Candidates for First Class Honours at the BE Examination in Electrical Engineering or Electronic Engineering must
satisfy the Examiners in at least one unit of Mathematics.

Pass Standard
The Pass standard is 40% in each subject.
Where the examination of a subject involves more than one paper or more than one section of a paper the examiners may,
as a result of an unacceptably poor performance in an individual paper or section, refuse to award a pass mark and an
“Inadequate Result” (IR) for the subject may be returned by the examiners.
104
Compensation
Where a candidate is taking all the written subjects at the same examination sitting, compensation may be exercised, but it
shall not as a rule be exercised if:
i.
the candidate’s marks fall below 30% in any subject or the candidate has obtained an Inadequate Result (IR) in
any subject.
ii.
the candidate’s marks fall below 40% in more than 2 subjects.
Compensation may be exercised only when a candidate’s surplus marks are at least double the deficiency. Compensation
shall not be applied to the subject Project Report nor shall surplus marks from this subject be used in the computation of
surplus marks for compensation purposes.
Exemption
Candidates who have not presented in all subjects or who have not passed in all subjects will be exempted in those subjects
in which they have reached the pass standard. On re-examination further exemptions may be allowed in single subjects
when a candidate has reached a Pass Standard in these subjects.
