1. Introduction
1.01 These regulations apply to all the under graduate/post graduate programs of the
Bahra University.
1.02 Each Academic year shall be divided into two Semesters - Autumn Semester (July to
December) and Spring Semester (January to June). The Autumn semester shall
ordinarily begin in July for students already on rolls and the Spring semester shall
ordinarily begin in January. However, the first semester (Autumn, for newly admitted
students) may begin a little later depending on completion of admission process and
formalities. The number of teaching weeks in each semester shall be fifteen to
eighteen with a minimum of 90 teaching days excluding the period of end term
examination.
1.03
Eligibility for Admission:- Admissions to different courses of the University shall be based on
criteria decided by the Academic Council of the University in accordance with the stipulations of
AICTE/UGC/BCI modified as necessary from time to time. There shall be provision for direct
admission for a limited number of NRI / FN students. Details of criteria for admission shall be as per
provisions of the rules formulated for the purpose. Physically handicapped Candidates shall be
required to satisfy the prescribed medical fitness norms. Admissions shall ordinarily close on a
specified date
1.04
before commencement of the first semester, through notification/academic calendar.
Duration:- The duration of the programme shall be governed by the regulations of
AICTE/PCI/BCI/UGC. As per the prevailing regulations, B. Tech programme is of Four years (Eight
Semesters), B. Pharm programme is of Four years (Eight Semesters), Five Years Integrated (B. Tech+
M. Tech), Five Year Integrated BA LLB programmes are of Five years (Ten Semesters) , BBA, MCA
programmes are of 3 years (Six Semesters), MBA is of 2 years(Four semesters) duration. The
maximum duration for completion of a Course is double of the normal duration.
1.05
Each year the University shall draw out a calendar of academic and associated activities, which shall
be adhered to. The same is non-negotiable. Details of curricula and syllabi shall be as decided by the
Academic Council with provision for modification from time to time as per the needs of the Industry
specializations concerned.
3
1.06
Any student pursuing B. Tech programme, may be allowed a change of branch after completion of
course requirements for the first (autumn) and second (spring) semesters of the first year programme,
subject to availability of seats in a programme. The selection shall be on the basis of merit, assessed
through the combined results of the first and second semester examinations declared in the form of
Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA). Only such students who have cleared all examinations of
both the semesters in first attempt with a minimum CGPA 4.5, in examinations held during
academic session of his / her first admission to the course and cleared all the dues of the University
shall be qualified to apply for a change of branch. Change of branch may be accorded subject to the
condition that the consequent total student strength in the ‘gainer’ programme shall not exceed the
approved seats and the net student strength in the loser programme shall not deplete by more than 10%
of the actual student strength existing on the rolls prior to the change during the process.

2. Structure of the Degree Programs
2.01
The various courses prescribed for a program of studies may be categorized in
terms of their academic affinity or their functional objectives. Depending on the
overall educational goals of programs, it is possible to have fixed named courses in
a particular category and to have fixed number of electives.
2.02
The category called Elective is conceptually different and operationally wider. For
each program there is a specific number of electives which the student is required to
take, but can choose from across the courses offered.
.
2.03
The structure contains a category of courses, such as Internship Program (IP) or
Thesis-Seminar (TS), which attempts a synthesis of preceding courses as well as
their applications. They carry large number of credits and are to be exclusively
pursued full-time throughout the allotted period. There is no provision for taking any
other courses along with these courses.
2.04
The semester-wise chart, consisting of the prescribed courses sequentially distributed
over the required number of semesters, leads to the particular degree. This contains a
prescribed number of courses in each semester, planned for an anticipated normal
progress through the program. This number is called the normal load for that
semester of the program.
5
3. Registration
3.01
Candidates shall have to register as bonafide students with the University as per University regulations
before commencement of instruction in First Semester and for Lateral entry students in Third
Semester. A student is allowed to attend classes only for those subjects that he/she have registered in a
semester. .
3.02
Registration for the semester for every student, already on rolls will be at the
beginning of every semester on the dates announced. Every student is required to
register for his semester program. A student, who has been promoted with a backlog, has to first
register for the backlog subject(s) if the same is being offered in a semester. To get his /her
registration completed properly is his/her own responsibility, failing which he/she
shall not be permitted to attend any classes or use any facilities of the Institute during
that semester. The first registration in a semester for a student is called the original
registration.
3.03
A student is not permitted to register in a semester/term, if any of the following
discrepancies are found:i)
The student has dues outstanding to the University, hostel, or any recognized
organ of the University.
ii)
The student's grade sheet in the immediately preceding semester is withheld.
iii)
The student has an Incomplete (I) report in the immediately
preceding
semester
iv)
The student has been specifically asked to stay away from that semester.
v)
The student has failed to convert the provisional admission into a regular
admission by the specified date
vi)
The student is likely to take more than twice the normal duration required for the
completion of the program.
6
3.04
Registration in certain courses, like IP, may be permitted even if the result of the
preceding semester is not available due to small gap between the end of the
previous semester and the start of the IP, but the same will be subject to cancellation
without notice if the student is found to be defaulting from any of the conditions of
clause 3.03, discovered later.
3.05
In an unusual circumstance, the dean academics may permit late registration of a
student. A student whose request for late registration has been accepted will be
permitted to register on the specified date, normally one week from the date of
original registration, on payment of such late fees as may be prescribed from time to
time. Further extension of time will not be granted. Students requesting for late
registration will have to apply for the permission prior to the date of original
registration.
3.06
The registration in a semester, when altered at the initiative of a student will be
called an amended registration and will be covered by the conditions listed
below:i)
If a student desires to withdraw from a course, he may submit a formal
application for withdrawal from the course prior to the commencement of the
semester classes.
ii)
In exceptional circumstances, a student may be permitted to completely
withdraw
from
all
courses
and
drop
the
semester
when
the
Vice
Chancellor/Dean is satisfied as to the genuineness of the circumstances.
3.07
The revision of original/amended registration can be caused by concerned authority
any time during the semester/term as per the details listed below:-
i)
If the registration of a student in a course is not in accordance with the
regulations, his/her registration in that course will be cancelled and the grade
obtained, if any, will be rejected.
ii)
The registration of a student in a course or completed set of courses in a
semester can be revised through the instrument of RC by the concerned
authority, when the student is found guilty in cases of unfair means,
breach
7
of discipline, etc., or when he persistently and deliberately
does
not
clear
his/her dues.
iii)
Dean Academic may cause a revision of registration already done by
cancelling registration in all courses, when the student ceases to be on the rolls
of the Institute by his/her own action or by the action of the University.
iv)
Dean Academic may cause a revision of registration already done by
cancellation of the IP option through the instrument of RRA.
3.08
When a student, who has been permitted to stay away from the University for a
semester or more, comes back, his/her subsequent program would be normally
governed by the then current academic structure and regulations.
3.09
When a student fails to register in a semester without any prior permission to stay
away, his/her name would be struck off the rolls of the University and he/she
would no longer be a student of the University. His/her case will be closed. If,
however, such a person, after his/her name has been struck off the rolls of the
University, is permitted to come back, his/her case can be treated as in the clause
3.16 above with the provision that all his/her previous records as a former student
are revived under the current structure, regulations and schedule of fees.

4.01
Teaching and Evaluation
The objective of classroom education is to awaken the curiosity of the student, generate
habits of rational thinking in him, gear his/her mind to face the unfamiliar and train him
to stand on his/her own. Classroom instruction helps the student in the organization and
correlation of facts, comprehension of ideas and the creative use of knowledge.
4.02
The teacher also has the added responsibility to make the student search for knowledge
on his/her own and induce him to use additional facilities like the library, laboratory and
the environment, to optimize his/her learning process. Self-study by the student
would therefore form an important factor in the planning of teaching and evaluation. The
student is required to cooperate and respond to this challenge.
4.03
Every course whether single-section or multi-section is conducted by a member of the
faculty called instructor-in-charge, with the assistance, wherever necessary, of the
required number of instructors who will be partners with him in meeting the full
academic perceptions and organizational needs of teaching the course and evaluating
the students. Wherever the instructor-in-charge is mentioned hereafter, it connotes the
team of instructors, acting as one entity under his/her captainship.
4.04
The instructor-in-charge should make a comprehensive plan in respect of conducting
the course even before the semester begins. In a multi-section course, all instructors
must remain in continuous interaction in order to ensure a smooth operation of the
course. While recognizing variations due to personal attitudes and styles, it is important
that these are smoothened out so that the operation and grading in different sections in a
course, indeed between courses across the University, are free from any seeming
arbitrariness.
4.05
At the beginning of class work, the instructor, in-charge/instructor must announce to
his/her class/section through a Course Handout, the necessary information in respect of
(i) the operations of the course (its pace, coverage and level of treatment, textbooks and
other reading assignments, home tasks etc); (ii) various components of evaluation, such
as tutorials, laboratory exercises, home assignment, several quizzes/tests/examinations
(announced or unannounced, open book or closed book), regularity of attendance, etc.
(v) Mid-semester grading; (vi) grading procedure.
9
4.06
Just as evaluation is done in continuous manner, feedback should also be available in a
continuous manner. Thus, the answer scripts must be promptly evaluated, shown to the
students for them to obtain any clarification on their performance. The performance of
the students in the examination should be discussed in the class giving as much details as
possible like the highest, lowest and average performances.
4.07
It shall be the responsibility of the individual student to attend all classes and to take
prescribed quizzes, tests, examinations, etc., and to submit, properly and promptly all
homework. A student must normally maintain a minimum of 75% attendance in each of
the campus-based courses without which he/she shall be disqualified from appearing in
the respective examinations and he/she is required to register again (RRA) in the course.
4.08
If a student, who misses the first test due to low attendance, meets the requirement of
minimum attendance by the second test, he/she may be given a make-up for the missed
first test. If a student does not maintain requisite attendance, by the end of the semester,
his/her registration in that particular course (subject) would be cancelled and he/she
would be required to register again in those particular courses (subject). This event would
be reported as RRA (Required to Register Again). The students with RRA will be
allowed to register these subjects (at most three at a time) with regular classes of these
subjects and should clear the Exam with prescribed fees.
4.09
The attendance requirements in the Internship Program (IP) courses conducted at other
organizations are more stringent. During these courses 100% attendance is compulsory.
However, in genuine cases, the resident faculty member may consider and recommend a
few days leave of absence for the approval of the appropriate authority, whose decision
would be final in such a matter. During Internship Program, every student must conform
to the rules and regulations of the host organization. Any unprofessional behavior,
misconduct, indiscipline, irregularity at work or unsatisfactory performance would lead
to the cancellation of registration in the course.
4.10
At the conclusion of the semester a student is awarded a grade in each of the courses
he/she has taken during that period. The grade awarded to a student in a course will
depend on his total performance in all the components of evaluation.
10
Evaluation Process
1. To ensure Transparency into the Evaluation System, the complete details have been worked out for
weightage to Mid Term Tests/ Assignment/Final Exams for Theory and Practical subjects, as well as
for Practical/Industrial Training and Project Evaluation.
2. The complete structure of the Question papers to be set has been defined.
3. University has the procedure of paper setting for examinations, which will include external examiners
as well as internal examiners, excluding the faculty who is teaching the subject. Deans of respective
Schools will forward the list of experts (subject-wise) to Controller of Examinations. He/she will
forward such list to the Vice Chancellor for his/her kind approval. The Controller of Examinations will
invite the selected experts to set papers and ask them to submit the same by due date in sealed
envelope to his office.
4. The Table Marking of Papers be done for the Final Exam.

At the end of the course, in certain situations, the student may be awarded certain
events/facts in suitable words, in place of grades discussed earlier. These reports are not
to be construed as grades. The various reports listed below are elaborated in the
subsequent clauses.
i)
Incomplete (I)
ii)
Grade Awaited (GA)
iii)
Withdrawn (W)
iv)
Registration Cancelled (RC), Required to Register Again (RRA), Discontinued

4.13
If the instructor-in-charge finds a student having not fulfilled some of the requirements of
a course before the final deadline for transmitting the grade, and he/she is satisfied
that
he/she is able to transmit some grade or a report with or without this particular
fulfillment, but at his/her discretion wishes to give the student an opportunity, he/she
may, within the deadline, send a report ‘I’ (Incomplete) and also inform the student of the
same. It shall be the responsibility of the student to contact the instructor-in- charge
in
time for replacement of the ‘I’ report within two weeks after the end of the semester
which the instructor-in-charge will communicate whatever grade/report is possible for the
situation. Whenever such relaxation is made, the Dean will specify at his/her discretion,
with the consent of the instructor-in-charge, the date by which ‘I’
report has to be
converted.
4.14
There are many situations where operational and practical difficulties may cause a
delay in the communication of a grade. Certain situations which are visualized in this
connection are: (i) where a case of unfair means is pending; (ii) where a case of
indiscipline is pending, and (iii) where the courses are being conducted at an off
campus center for IP students, where precise co-ordination between the University and
these centers may not workout in a timely manner. In these circumstances the Dean may
authorize
the
instructor-in-charge to report G A (Grades Awaited). It
shall be the
responsibility of the instructor-in-charge to replace GA report by letter grade or another
report within the specified time. Whenever the GA report appears in
permission for further registration of such a student shall be at the
the grade sheet,
discretion
of
the
concerned Dean.
4.15
Whenever a student is allowed to withdraw from a course, the same is recorded in
his/her grade sheet as W (Withdrawn). The student will have to register for the course
when it is offered next and obtain a valid letter grade. If the course with 'W' report is a
prerequisite course for another course, the registration to the course is possible only on
obtaining a valid letter grade in the prerequisite course with 'W' report. No withdrawal
is possible without the approval of the concerned authority.
4.16
Where a student's registration for a course has to be cancelled, this fact will be reported
in the grade sheet as RC (Registration Cancelled). An event will be reported as RC in
the following cases:i)
Cancellation is recommended as a part of disciplinary action for resorting to
unfair means during examination or other unprofessional behavior.
20
ii)
A provisionally admitted student fails to submit the proof of necessary
documents required for registration and fails to satisfy the minimum eligibility
requirements for the admission within the prescribed time limit.
iii)
When a student persistently and/or deliberately does not pay off his/her dues.
RC itself has many meanings and may be reported as the following:-
i)
When it is clearly known that the student will be required to register again in the
same course, the event will be reported as RRA (Required to Register Again).
4.17
The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) will be used to describe the overall
performance of a student in all courses in which he/she is awarded letter grades, since
his/her entry into the University up to and including the latest semester/term. It is also
used for the declaration of division when the program is completed. CGPA is the
weighted average of the grade points of all the letter grades received by the
student from his/her entry into the Institute and is computed as follows:-
𝑪𝑮𝑷𝑨 =
(𝑪𝟏 𝒈𝟏 + 𝑪𝟐 𝒈𝟐 +. . . +𝑪𝒏 𝒈𝒏 )
𝑪𝟏 + 𝑪𝟐 + ⋯ + 𝑪𝒏
