 Preface
The Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) is a prominent department
within Green University of Bangladesh, boasting a distinguished history of excellence in
undergraduate education and research for over fifteen years. Our mission is to cultivate a
generation of highly-qualified engineers prepared to contribute on both national and inter-
national stages.

The EEE department actively adapts its curriculum to the evolving nature of the engineer-
ing field. Regular updates to course content, expansion of laboratory facilities, and revi-
sions to teaching and research materials are core departmental practices. Despite inherent
resource limitations, the department is steadfastly committed to revising and introducing
new courses. This dedication ensures our students remain competitive with their peers at
other leading universities throughout Bangladesh.

The syllabus presented in this handbook reflects this ongoing commitment to meeting the
contemporary needs of EEE students, empowering them to fulfill career aspirations in na-
tional and international environments. This syllabus along with the course offerings listed
in this document, is the culmination of the efforts of the faculties, alumni and experts from
different local universities and industries. This curriculum has been developed through a
comprehensive review of courses from local and international universities.

This syllabus was initially approved by the UGC on 27.07.2008. In subsequent meetings,
several changes were made to the curriculum. These meetings aimed to update the curricu-
lum based on the evolving educational needs and standards. In the 1st Meeting of the EEE
Curriculum Committee on 2nd May 2015, Green Communication and EEE 459 Green Com-
puting were added to the syllabus. It was decided that courses like EEE 201, EEE 209, EEE
210, and EEE 314 would be offered sequentially in different terms. ’HUM 401 (Financial
and Managerial Accounting)’ was included to meet the UGC requirements.

The 2nd Meeting on 13th August 2015 incorporated ’Green Power and Energy’, ’Green Com-
puting’, ’Green Communications’, and ’Green Electronics’ as elective courses. Changes were
made to Humanities courses. Numerical Methods was moved to the core group. In the 3rd
Meeting on 9th June 2016 total credits were reduced from 147 to 144 to meet the require-
ments of elective courses. The Vision and Mission of the department were modified and the
syllabus of various courses were updated in the 4th meeting held on 11th April 2017. The
5th Meeting on 10th November 2017 included new courses like HUM 211, HUM 213, EAP
204, HUM 205, and HUM 403 to meet UGC requirements. New course was introduced for
Numerical Methods and EEE 481 was shifted to electives. EEE 210 was omitted to adjust to-
tal credits. The 6th curriculum committee meeting was held on 7th November, 2019. Some
decisions were taken. EEE 402 (Control System Lab) and EEE 440 (Engineering Drawing
and Electrical Service Design) were replaced by EEE 442 (Integrated Design Project I) and
EEE 444 (Integrated Design Project II) and the credits were 1.5 credits for each course. The
duration of these courses will be 3 hours and the courses will be conducted in two consecu-
tive semesters. As per requirements of OBE, 3 credits will be allocated to 8 weeks industrial

training. This extra 3 credits will be adjusted from the elective courses. As per require-
ments of OBE, the duration of Final Year Project/Thesis is decided to be 1 year. This implies
that the Project/Thesis will be conducted in 3 consecutive semesters and the credits for this
course in each semester is 2.

In the 7th curriculum meeting, the committee introduced a range of new and revamped
courses. The title of some core and elective courses have been changed after reviewing the
course structure of BUET and some esteemed foreign universities. Numerical Analysis Lab
was replaced by Control Systems Lab. New courses such as Machine Learning, Digital Image
Processing and Medical Imaging have been added as elective courses in the Communication
and Signal Processing group. Likewise, course titled Smart grid has been added to Power
elective group. The sessional courses Integrated Design Project I and Integrated Design
Project II have been merged into a single sessional course titled Integrated Design Project
and Electrical Service Design sessional has been appended to the curriculum. The previ-
ously uncredited course Professional Life Skill Development has been assigned 1.5 credits
in the new curriculum.

22 Grading/Evaluation
a) Grading Scale
At GUB, a grading scale of 4.0 is followed.
b) Grades
Letter grading will be made to assess students’ performance. The grade will be as-
signed on the overall evaluation of a student’s performance based on the semester final
examination, midterm exam, case studies, tutorial test, term papers, assignments, and
class attendance in aggregate and whatever is applicable for an individual program.
The teachers responsible for the course will determine Grades/GPA. The final result
will be prepared by cumulating the grade point average over the courses. The UGC-
approved uniform grading system is adopted for assigning a letter grade and grade
point. This is given in the following table:

Numerical Grade Letter Grade Grade Point

80% or Above A+ 4.00
75% to 80% A 3.75
70% to 75% A- 3.50
65% to 70% B+ 3.25
60% to 65% B 3.00
55% to 60% B- 2.75
50% to 55% C+ 2.50
45% to 50% C 2.25
40% to 45% D 2.00
Less than 40% F 0.00
I Incomplete
W Withdrawn

c) Grade Point Average (GPA) Calculation Procedure

A student obtaining a ’D’ or higher grade will be counted as credits earned by him/her.
A student obtaining an ’F’ grade will not be counted towards his earned credits. The
Grade Point Average (GPA) is calculated for the courses taken in a semester and the
Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is calculated for all the courses taken up to
the semester to which it refers to by the student. The calculation of GPA and CGPA
are as follows:

Pn
i=0 Ci Gi
T erm GP A = P n
i=0 Ci
PN
i=0 Ci Gi
CGP A = P N
i=0 Ci

© Dept. of EEE, GUB Page 67

 Part D
where Ci stands for credits of the i-th course, Gi stands for grade points earned in the
i-th course. n stands for the number of courses taken in the semester. N stands for the
number of courses taken up to the semester to which it refers. Both GPA and CGPA
will be rounded off to the second place of decimal for reporting.

d) Course Withdrawal (W)

A ’W’ grade is assigned to a course for a student if s/he withdraws from the course.
’W’ grade will not be considered for GPA/ CGPA calculation. A student can withdraw
a semester following the rules;

i. A student shall withdraw officially from a course within two working weeks of the
commencement of the semester or else his grade in that course shall be recorded
as F unless s/he is eligible to get a grade of I.
ii. A student can drop his/her semester, subject to the permission of the Chairperson
of the department. In that case his/her grade in the courses registered shall be
recorded as ’W’ in his Academic Record but shall not be reflected in the transcript.
iii. If a student is willing to withdraw from all courses/semesters, s/he must follow
the official semester drop procedure of the university. As per the academic calen-
dar, a student must write an application in a prescribed form to the Chairperson,
and his/her application will be forwarded to the registrar’s office to complete the
formalities.
iv. If any student drops for less than three semesters without prior permission shall
have to pay the prescribed delay fee per semester to continue his/her study at the
university.
v. If any student drops for three or more consecutive semesters without prior per-
mission, the student’s admission will be canceled. The student can resume his/her
study by taking readmission and paying the readmission fee with permission
from the Dean of the faculty through the Chairperson of the respective depart-
ment.
vi. A student who leaves the university without officially withdrawing a semester in
the manner mentioned above, will get a fail grade, ’F’ in each course registered in
that semester.

e) Incomplete (I) Course

A student will be assigned ’I’ grade,

i. If a student appears either in the Midterm or in the Midterm make-up examina-

tion but fails to appear in the Semester Final examination.
ii. An ’I’ grade will automatically be converted to an ’F’ grade if s/he fails to improve
it to a passing grade.

f) Retake
If a student gets an ’F’ grade in any course, s/he will have to retake the course in a
subsequent semester by re-registering the course and paying full tuition fees. A course
may be retaken in a semester only if the course is offered in that semester. The course
repeated/retaken must carry the same course code, course title, and course contents

© Dept. of EEE, GUB Page 68

 Part D
or its equivalent. The student retaking the course must attend the classes, appear in
all the examinations and do assignments and other tasks, for the course like a regular
student.

g) Grade Improvement
If a student obtains a grade lower than B in a course, s/he will be allowed to retake
that course only once for the purpose of grade improvement subject to the offering of
that course. A student will be permitted to repeat a maximum of four courses in a
Bachelor’s program for grade improvement. No improvement shall be allowed for the
Practical/Sessional Courses and they cannot be retaken as self-study courses. Under
all circumstances, the higher grade will be taken into account in calculating the final
CGPA. A student taking advantage of the retake policy will not be eligible for receiving
a gold medal or any other award.

h) Dropout
A student may add/drop courses without fee/with fee as per the schedule of the aca-
demic calendar. A student must obtain permission from the respective academic ad-
viser, program coordinator and Chairperson of the Department and complete the for-
malities with the registrar’s office to Add or Drop courses.
