Pre-requisite Course: Some of the core courses are identified as
pre-requisite courses. A pre-requisite course is one, which is
required to be completed before some other course(s) can be
taken. Any such course, on which one or more subsequent courses
build up, may be offered in each of the two regular semester.
Optional Courses: Apart from the core courses, Students have to
complete a number of courses which are optional in nature. In that,
Students have some choose the required number of courses from a
specified group/number of courses.

10. Departmental Monitoring Committee and student Adviser:

10.1 Each department constitutes a Departmental Monitoring Committee
with two teachers of the Department as members nominated by the
Committee of Courses studies and Head of the Department as
chairman. This committee monitors and evaluates the performance
of the course system within the Department. The committee may
16

also propose from time to time to the Committee of courses and

Studies any changes and modifications needed for
upgrading/changing the Undergraduate Curriculum and the Course
System.
10.2 Student Adviser: An advisory board will be appointed for a batch
of students of each department to advise each student on the
courses to be taken by the student. The advisory board or one of
its members as decided by the board will discuss with the student
his academic program and then decide the number and nature of
courses for which he can register. However, it is the students
responsibility to keep contact with his adviser who will review and
eventually approve the students specific plan of study and check
on subsequent progress.
11. Registration Requirements:
Each and every student must register for the courses he/she intends
to take during a given semester on the basis of the advice and
consent of his/her adviser.
11.1 Registration Procedure: Student will fill up his/her Course
Registration Form in consultation with and under the guidance of
his/her adviser and must submit to the Registrars Office within
one week from the commencement of the class. Late registration
after this date will not be accepted unless the student submits a
written appeal to the Registrar through the concerned Head and
can document extenuating circumstances such as medical
problems or some other academic commitments which precluded
enrolling prior to the last date of registration. Moreover, students
who fail to register during the designated dates for registration will
be charged a late registration fee. However, no registration will be
accepted after two weeks from the commencement of the class.
11.2 Limits on the Credit Hours to be registered: The total number
of credit hours for which a student should register shall be
between 15 to 22 credits per week in a semester. However, a
student may be allowed to register for less than 15 credits in a
semester if
i) he is considered academically weak
ii) number of credits required for graduation is less than 15 in that
semester and
iii) student can not find appropriate courses for registration subject
to the approval of the adviser.
17

11.3 Pre-Condition for Registration: A student will be allowed to

register in those courses subject to the capacity constrains and
satisfaction of pre-requisite courses. If a student fails in a prerequisite course in any semester, the concerned Department
Monitoring Committee may allow him to register for a course
which build on the pre-requisite course provided his attendance
and grades in continuous assessment in the said pre-requisite
course is found to be satisfaction.
Registration will be done at the beginning of each semester. Late
registration is however, permitted during the first week on
payment of a late registration fee. Students having out standing
dues to the Institute or a hall of residence shall not. be permitted to
register. All students have therefore, to clear their dues and get a
clearance or no dues certificate, on the production of which, they
will be given necessary Course Registration Forms and complete
the course registration procedure. Registration Forms are normally
availably in the Registers office. An orientation program will be
conducted for only the first year students at the beginning of the
first semester when they will be handed over the registration
package on producing enrollment slip/proof of admission.
11.4 Pre-Registration: Pre-registration for course to be offered in a
particular semester will be done on the specified date before the
end of the previous semester. All students in consultation with the
advisor are required to complete pre-requisition formalities.,
failing which a fine may be decided by the authority will have to
be paid before registration in the next term. Further a student who
does not pre-register may not get the courses desired by him
subsequently.
11.5 Registration Deadline: Student must register for the courses to be
taken before the commencing of each and no late registration will
be accepted after one week of classes which may be relaxed up to
maximum of two weeks for the newly admitted first year students.
Late registration after this date will not be accepted unless the
student submits a written appeal to the Registrar through the
concerned head and can document extenuating circumstances such
as medical problems ( physically incapacitated and not able to be
presented) or some other academic commitments which precluded
enrolling prior to the last date of registration.
11.6 Penalty for Late Registration: Students who fail to register
during the designated dates for registration are charged a late
18

registration fee decided by the authority. This extra fee will not be
waived whatever be the reason for late registration.
11.7 Course Adjustment Procedure: A student would have some
limited options to add or delete courses from his/her registration
list within the first two weeks from the beginning of the semester.
Adjustment of initially registered courses in any semester can be
done by duly completing the Course Adjustment Form. These
forms are normally available in the Registrations office. For first
year students such forms can be included in the registration packet
at the time of orientation.
Any student willing to add or drop courses will have to fill up a
Course Adjustment From in consultation with and under the
guidance of his/her adviser. The original copy of the course
Adjustment From will be submitted to the Registrars Office and
then the requisite number of photo copies will be made by the
Registrars Office for distribution to the concerned Adviser, Head
and the student. All changes in courses must be approved by the
adviser and the Head of the department concerned. The Course
Adjustment From will have to be submitted to the Registrars
Office after duly filled in and signed by the concerned persons. To
add/drop a course respective teachers consent will be required.
11.8 Withdrawal from a Semester: If a student is unable to complete
the semester Final Examination due to illness, accident or any
other valid reason etc. he/she may apply to the Head of the degree
awarding department for total withdrawal from the semester
within a week after the end of the semester final examination.
However,
he/she
may
choose
not
withdraw
any
laboratory/sessional/ design course if the grade obtained in such a
course is D or better. The application must be supported by a
medical from any authorized Medical Officer.
11.9 Registration Fee :Each student will pay a registration fee of Tk.
15/= per credit and must submit the document of payment along
with the registration form to the Registrars office. It must be
noted here that, any fraction in credit will be considered as a next
higher integer credit for calculating registration fee.
12. Striking off the Names and Readmission:
12.1 The name of the students shall be struck of removed from the rolls
on the following grounds:

19

i)

Non-payment of Institute fees and dues within the prescribed

period.

where n is the total number of courses passed by the student in the

semester, Ci is the number of credits allotted to a particular course i and
Gi is the grade point corresponding to the grade awarded for i- th course.
The overall or Cumulative grade point average (CGPA) gives the
cumulative performance of the student from first semester up to any other
semester to which it refers and is computed by dividing the total grade
points (Ci Gi ) accumulated up to the date by the total credit (Ci). Both
GPA and CGPA will be rounded off to the second place of decimal for
reporting.

13. Grading System : The letter grade system shall be used to assess the
performance of the student and shall be as follows:

iv) Combined theory & laboratory/Sessional courses:

Assessment for the theory part of the course will be done as per
guideline i) and that for the laboratory/sessional part as per
guideline ii) above. Total marks in a combined course will then be
calculated on the basis of theory to laboratory/Sessional credit
ratio.
14.2 It is desirable that weightage on continuous assessment as
described in Article 14.1 such as quizzes and class tests, class
participation and attendance etc. should be increased up to 50%
22

and weightage on semester final examination should be reduced to

award of any type of scholarship/stipend /grant for the following
academic session.

v)

All class shall ordinarily be of equal value. The result of each

individual class test shall be posted for information of the students
preferably before the next class test is held.

16. Earned Credits:

The courses in which a student has obtained D or a higher grade
will only be counted as credits earned by him/her. A student, who
obtains a F grade in any Core Course in any semester. he/she
will have to repeat the course. If a student obtains a F in an
Optional Course, he/she may choose to repeat the course. If a
student obtains a F in an Optional Course, he/she may choose to
repeat the course or take a substitute course if available. F grades
will not be counted for GPA calculation but will stay permanently
on the Grade sheet and Transcript.
A student obtaining D grade in a course will be allowed to repeat
the course for the purpose of grade improvement if CGPA of the
student falls below 2.20 . In such case he/she will be awarded the
new grade thus he/she obtains or retains his/her previous grade if
he/she fails.

15. Class Tests/Quizzes

i)
For 2 credit courses 3 best out of 4, for 3 credit courses 4 best out
of 5 and 4 credit courses 5 best of 6 quizzes/class test may be
taken for awarding grade. These may be considered as the
minimum as the minimum recommended number of quizzes/class
tests for any course. If the number of quizzes/class tests
administered in a courses exceeds these suggested minimum
numbers, then two thirds best of all may be considered.
ii)
Duration of quizzes/class tests should not exceed 15 minutes and
materials covered should be what were taught in 2 to 3 previous
class or most recent classes.
iii)
for convenience of conduction the class tests/quizzes a half an
hour time slot should be kept at the beginning of each working
day.
iv)
The dates for the quizzes/class test shall be fixed by the Head or
Course Coordinator and shall be announced accordingly.

17. Performance Evaluation:

The minimum CGPA requirement for obtaining a B. Sc.
Engineering degree is 2.2. The performance of a student will be
evaluated in terms of two indices, viz. semester grade point
average and cumulative grade point average.
Student will be considered to be making normal progress toward a
degree if their CGPA for all courses attended is 2.2 or more.
Students who regularly maintain semester GPA or 2.20 or better
are making good progress toward their degrees and are in good
standing with the Institute. Students who fail to maintain this
minimum rate of progress will not be in good standing. This can
happen when one or more of the following conditions exist:
i) Semester GPA falls below 2.20 or
ii) Cumulative GPA falls below 2.20
iii) Earned credits fall below 15 times the number of Semester
attended/studies.
All such students can make up deficiencies in GPA and credit
requirements by completing courses of next semester(s) and

23

24

backlog courses, if there be any, with better grades. When GPA

and credit requirements are achieved,
The student is returned to good standing. Students whose GPA
will fall below 2.20 will have to be notified so that the necessary
remedial measures can be taken.
18. Honors, Directors List and Board of Governors (BOG)Gold medal
Candidates for Bachelors degree in engineering will be awarded
the degree with honors if their CGPA is 3.75 or better.
In recognition of excellent performance, the names of students
who maintains good standing with the Institute obtaining SGPA of
3.75 or above in two regular semesters in each academic year may
be published in the Directors List in each department. Students
who have received F grade in any course during any of the two
regular semesters will not be considered for Directors List in that
year.
If a students can show extraordinary brilliance and obtains all A or
better grades in all the courses he/she attended and fulfills the
credit requirement for graduation will be honored by awarding
BOG gold medal in a special function/convocation.
19. Student Classification:
For a number of reasons it is necessary to have a definite system
by which to classify students as First year, Second year, Third year
and Fourth year. At BIT regular student are classified according to
the number of credit hours earned towards a degree. The following
classification applies to the students.
Year
First year
Second year
Third year
Fourth year

Earned credits
0 to 35
36 to 70
71 to 105
106 and above

20. Registration for the Second & subsequent Semester:

A student is normal required to earn at least 15 credit in semester. At
the end of each semester, the students will be categorized as follows:
Category - 1 :
Consisting of student who have passed all the courses prescribed for
the semester and have no backlog of courses. A student belonging to
25

Category 1 will be eligible to register for all courses prescribed for

the next semester.
Category - 2 :
Consisting of students who have earned at least 15 credits in the
semester but do not belong to category 1. A student belonging to
Category 2 is advised to take at least one course less in the next
semester subject to the condition that he/she has to register for such
backlog courses as may be prescribed by the adviser.
Category -3 :
Consisting of student who have failed to earn 15 credits in the
semester. A students belonging to Category 3 is advised to take at
least two courses less subject for registration for minimum of 15
credits. However, he/she will be required to register for such backlog
courses as may prescribed by the adviser.
21. Probation and Suspension:
Undergraduate students who regularly maintain semester GPA of
2.20 or better satisfying the minimum credit requirements are
making good progress toward their degrees and are in good
standing with the Institute. Students who fail to maintain this
minimum rate of progress may be placed on academic probation.
The status of academic probation is a reminder/warning to the
student that satisfactory progress towards graduation is not being
made. A student may be placed on academic probation when
either of the following conditions exists:
i) The Semester GPA falls below 2.20 or
ii) The cumulative GPA falls below 2.20
Students on probation are subject to such restriction with respect
to courses and extracurricular activities as may be imposed by the
respective Head of the Department.
The minimum period of probation is one semester, but the usual
period is for one academic year. The allows student and
opportunity to improve the GPA through the completion of
additional course work during the period that the student is on
probation. The probation is extended for additional semester until
the student achieves an overall GPA if 2.20 or better. When that
condition is achieved, the student is returned to good standing.
26

Academic probation is not be taken lightly-it is very serious

matter. A student on academic probation who fails to maintain a
GPA of at least 2.20 during two consecutive academic years may
be suspended from this Institute. A student who has been
suspended may apply for consideration to the Director, but this
application will not be considered until the student has been
suspended at least one full semester.
Petitions for reinstatement must set forth clearly the reasons for
the previous unsatisfactory academic record and it must delineate
the new conditions that have been created to prevent the
recurrence of such work. Each such petition is considered
individually on its own merits. After consideration of the petition
is considered individually on its own merits. After consideration
of the petition and perhaps after consultation with the student,
adviser and the respective Head of the Department, Director in
some cases; reinstate the student if this is the first suspension.
However, a second suspension will be regarded as final and
absolute.
22. Measures for Helping Academically weak Students:
The following provisions are made as far as possible to help
academically weak students to enable them to complete their
studies within the maximum period of seven years.
a)

All such students whose Cumulative Grade Point Average

(CGPA) is less than 2.20 at the end of a semester may be given
a load not exceeding four theory/combined courses in the next
semester.

b) For other academic deficiencies, some basic and core courses

may be offered during the regular semester under special
arrangement in order to enable the student to partially make up
for the reduced load during regular semester.

Following criteria are followed for determining academically

weak students.
i)

CGPA falling below 2.20

ii) Semester grade point average (SGPA) falling below 2.20 points
below that of previous semester.
27

iii) Earned credit calling below 15 times the number of semester

attended.
23. Minimum Earned credit and GPA Requirements for Obtaining
Degree:
Minimum credit requirements for the awarded of Bachelor of
Engineering Degree will be decided by the respective committee
of courses and studies. The minimum CGPA requirements for
obtaining a Bachelor of Engineering Degree are 2.20.
A student may take additional courses with the consent of his/her
adviser in order to raise CGPA, but he/she may take a maximum
of 15 such additional credits beyond respective credit
requirements for bachelors degree during his/her entire period of
student.
24. Time Limits of Completion of Bachelors Degree:
A students must complete his/her students within a maximum period of seven years
for engineering.

25. Industrial/ Professional Training Requirements:

Depending on each Departments own requirement a student may
have to complete a prescribed number of days of industrial/
professional training in addition of minimum credit and other
requirements, to the satisfaction of the concerned department.
26. Application for Graduation and Award of Degree:
A student who has fulfilled all the academic requirements for
bachelors degree will have to apply to the Register/Director
through his/her Adviser for graduation. Provisional degree will be
awarded in completion of credit and GPA requirements. Such
provisional degree will be confirmed by the academic council.
27. Inclusion of repeaters from present system to the new courses system
Repeater students will be included in the courses system of
curricula as and when such situation will arise.
27.1 Equivalence of Courses and Grades: Equivalence of courses
passed previously by any repeater student shall be determined by
the respective Committee of Courses & Studies for the purpose of:
a) Allowing course exemption and
28

b) Conversion of present grades into proposed grades in exempted

courses.
27.2 Time Limit for Completion of Bachelors Degree: Time
allowed for a student included in Course System from Previous
System to complete studies leading to a bachelors degree will be
proportional to the remaining credits to be completed by him/her.
A student in engineering for example, having earned 40 credit
hours through equivalence and exemption (for previously
completed courses) out of a total requirement of 162 credits for
bachelors degree will get.
(7 yr. X 122/162 = 5.25) = 5-1/2 years (rounded to next higher
half-a year) or 11 (eleven) Regular semester to fulfill all
requirements for bachelors degree.
27.3 Relaxation of Course Registration for Repeaters: Relaxation of
course Registration for a student transferred to course system from
Previous system: - the requirement of registration of minimum 15
credit hours in a semester shall waived for only the semester of the
year where he/she has been transferred in course system provided
that he/she has been granted exemption in some of the courses
offered in those terms.
28. Absence during Semester:
A Student should not be absent quizzes tests etc. during the
semester. Such absence will naturally lead to reduction in
points/marks, which count towards the final grade. Absence in
semester final examination will result in F grade.
A Student who has been absent for short periods, up to a
maximum of three week due to illness, should approach the course
teacher(s) or the course coordinators(s) for a make-up quizzes or
assignments immediately on returning to the classes. Such request
should be supported by medical certificate from Institute medical
officer. The medical certificate issued by a registered medical
practitioner (with the registration number shown explicitly or the
certificates) will also be acceptable only in those cases where the
students has valid reason for his/her absence from the Institute.
