Assessment Details (both CIE and SEE)
The weightage of Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) is 50% and for Semester End Exam (SEE) is 50%. The
minimum passing mark for the CIE is 50% of the maximum marks. Minimum passing marks in SEE is 40% of the
maximum marks of SEE. A student shall be deemed to have satisfied the academic requirements and earned the
credits allotted to each subject/ course if the student secures not less than 50% (50 marks out of 100) in the sum
total of the CIE (Continuous Internal Evaluation) and SEE (Semester End Examination) taken together.
Continuous Internal Evaluation:
 Three Unit Tests each of 20 Marks
 Two assignments each of 20 Marks or one Skill Development Activity of 40 marks
to attain the COs and POs
The sum of three tests, two assignments/skill Development Activities, will be scaled down to 50 marks
CIE methods /question paper is designed to attain the different levels of Bloom’s taxonomy as per the
outcome defined for the course.
Semester End Examination:
 The SEE question paper will be set for 100 marks and the marks scored will be proportionately reduced to 50.
 The question paper will have ten full questions carrying equal marks.
 Each full question is for 20 marks. There will be two full questions (with a maximum of four sub-questions)
from each module.
 Each full question will have a sub-question covering all the topics under a module.
 The students will have to answer five full questions, selecting one full question from each module
