The students also have choice in selecting courses out of those offered by various departments. Courses offered in the University follow both semester and Annual pattern and the semester pattern under CBCS system. The marks obtained are converted in to grades under relative grading system. The courses offered under Distance Education follow the Annual pattern and the divisions are awarded on the basis of the mark secured. The practice of final grading under CBCS system calculated as the weighted SGPA and CGPA are computed on the basis of grades awarded in the semester examination and the number of credits prescribed for a particular course. The gardes in the semester examination are awarded based on relative grading. All diploma courses also follow the semester pattern but these final marks are taken into consideration not the grade.
