1. GENERAL:

These Regulations shall be called the University of Kalyani regulations for semesterized Choice Based
Credit System (CBCS) with continuous assessment pattern for Under-Graduate(UG) degree Programme.
These regulations will come into effect from the academic year 2018-19. The three year’s (Six Semesters)
Bachelor's degree programme in Science, Arts & Commerce in Semesterized CBCS System under Honours
and Programme/General course will be held according to the following regulations. The Kalyani University
Executive Council makes this Regulation in exercise of the power conferred upon it by section 49 of the
KALYANI UNIVERSITY ACT, 1981 (amended upto 2012).

2. DEFINITION OF KEY WORDS:

2.1. Academic Year: Two consecutive (one odd + one even) semesters constitute one academic year.

2.2. Choice Based Credit System (CBCS): The CBCS provides choice to students for selection of courses from
the prescribed courses (Core, Elective, Ability & Skill Enhancement courses).

2.3. Course: A component of a programme is usually referred to, as 'Papers'. All courses need not carry the
same weight. The courses should define learning objectives and learning outcomes. A course may be
designed to comprise lectures/tutorials/laboratory work/field work/outreach activities/project work/
Vocational training/viva/ seminar/Term Papers/assignment/presentation/self-study or a combination of
some of these.
2.4. Credit: A unit by which the course work is measured. It determines the number of hours of instruction
required per week. One Credit is equivalent to one hour of teaching (lecture or tutorial) or two hours of
practical work/field work per week.

2.5. Credit Based Semester System (CBSS): Under CBSS, the requirement for awarding a degree or diploma
or certificate is prescribed in terms of number of credits to be obtained by the students.

2.6. Credit Point: It is the product of grade point and number of credits for a course.

2.7. Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA): It is a measure of overall cumulative performance of a student
over all semesters. The CGPA is the ratio of total credit points secured by a student in various courses in all
semesters and the sum of the total credits of all courses in all the semesters. It is expressed upto two
decimal places.

2.8. Grade Point: It is a numerical weight allotted to each letter grade on an l0-point' scale.

2.9. Letter Grade: It is an index of the performance of students in a said course. Grades are denoted by
letters 0, E, A, B, C, D, F and AB etc.

2.10. Programme: An educational programme leading to award of a degree, diploma or certificate.

2.11. Semester: Each semester will consist of 18 weeks of academic work equivalent to 90 actual teaching
days. The odd semester may be scheduled from July to December and even semester from January to June
of every year.

2.12. Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA): It is a measure of performance of work done in a semester. It
is the ratio of total credit points secured by a student in various courses registered in a semester and the
total course credits taken during that semester. It shall be expressed up to two decimal places.

2.13. Transcript or Grade Card or Certificate: Based on the grades earned, a grade certificate shall be issued
to all the registered students after every semester. The grade certificate will display the course details
(code, title, number of credits, grade secured) along with SGPA of that semester and CGPA earned till that
semester

3. PROGRAMME STRUCTURE & ADMISSION:

3.1. A Student shall be admitted into three years (six semester) Bachelor's degree programme under

3.8: Types of Courses: Courses in a programme may be of three kinds: Core, Elective and Foundation.
 Core Course: There shall be a Core Course in every semester. This is the course which is to be
compulsorily studied by a student as a core requirement to complete the programme in a said discipline of
study.

Elective Course: This is a course which can be chosen from a pool of papers. It may be:

1. Supportive to the discipline of study

2. Providing an expanded scope
3. Enabling an exposure to some other discipline/domain
4. Nurturing student’s proficiency/skill.
An Elective course may be of two (02) types:

Discipline Specific Elective (DSE) Course: A course, which may be offered by the main discipline/ subject
of study, is referred to as Discipline Specific Elective.

Generic Elective (GE) Course: An elective course, chosen generally from an unrelated discipline/
subject of study with an intention to seek an exposure, is called a Generic elective Course.

[N.B.-A Core Course, offered in a discipline/ subject, may be treated as an elective by other
discipline/subject and vice-versa and electives chosen in such way referred to as Generic Elective. ]

Dissertation/ Project: An elective course, designed to acquire special/ advanced knowledge, is termed
as dissertation/ project. This is considered as a special course involving application of knowledge in solving/
analyzing / exploring a real life situation/ difficult problem. A dissertation/ project work will be of 6 credits.
A dissertation/ project work may be given in lieu of a Discipline Specific Elective.

Foundation Course: The Foundation Courses may be of two kinds:

i) Ability Enhancement compulsory courses (AECC)

ii) Skill Enhancement Courses (SEC)
