Credit Assignment Principles
At RCPIT, Shirpur, the academic structure is built on the principles of NEP 2020, emphasizing flexibility, continuous assessment, and outcome-based learning. The institute has adopted a 60:40 evaluation model from AY 2025-26 Batch (admitted in 2025-26) to ensure holistic student development and transparency in performance measurement.
Course Component | Credits Assigned | Typical Teaching Scheme |
---|---|---|
Lecture (L) | 1 credit per hour/week | Typically 3 hours/week |
Practical / Lab (P) | 0.5 credit per hour/week | Typically 2 hours/week |
Project / Seminar | Variable (2–10 credits) | Guided mentoring + execution |
Internship | Up to 10 credits | Based on scope and duration |
Self-Study (NPTEL/MOOCs) | Up to 3 credits | Approved courses with online exam |
Total Credits per Semester: Typically ranges from 18 to 23
Total B.Tech Program Credits: ~160 to 180 (including Honors/Minor programs)
Evaluation Criteria (Theory) – 60:40 Pattern
RCPIT offers NEP-aligned version of the Credit Assignment and Evaluation Criteria reflecting the 60:40 assessment pattern
Total Marks per Course: 100
Component | Marks | Weightage in Final Grade |
---|---|---|
Teacher Assessment (TA) | 25 | Included in Continuous Assessment (CA) |
Term Test 1 (TT1) | 15 | |
Term Test 2 (TT2) | 15 | |
Average of TT1 & TT2 | 15 | |
Total Continuous Assessment (CA) | 40 | 40% of Total Grade |
End Semester Exam (ESE) | 60 | 60% of Total Grade |
- Teacher Assessment (TA): Based on assignments, class participation, mini-projects, quizzes, presentation, mock, Codechef certification, innovative work etc.
- TT1 & TT2: Conducted mid-semester and end semester; average contributes to final internal score.
- ESE: Final theory exam, 2 hours in duration, covering full syllabus.
Evaluation Criteria (Laboratory)
Total Marks: 50 or 25 Converted to 100 for Grade Calculations
Component | 50 Marks | 25 Marks |
---|---|---|
Performance in Lab/Experiment | 10 | 05 |
Journal & Logbook Submission | 10 | 05 |
Viva-Voce & Interaction | 10 | 05 |
Case Study / Assignment | 10 | 05 |
End-Semester Practical/Oral | 10 | 10 |
- Minimum 8 experiments per lab are mandatory.
- Lab assessments emphasize practical execution, documentation, and analytical thinking.
Key Highlights of the NEP-Aligned 60:40 Evaluation
- Encourages continuous learning and assessment over rote memorization
- Integrates project-based, pedagogy
- Promotes interdisciplinary thinking via Honors/Minor credits
- Seamless inclusion of online learning (NPTEL, SWAYAM) into formal credits
- Supports modular certification, portfolio building, and self-assessment
Additional Consideration
- Continuous Assessment is a core philosophy: student progress is tracked throughout the semester.
- Internship & Project Evaluation includes mid-term reviews, mentor feedback, and final viva.
- Students completing NPTEL/SWAYAM courses must either present the official certificate or pass internal assessment.
