Assessment Details (both CIE and SEE):

Assessment Structure:
The assessment in the course is divided equally between Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE)
and the Semester End Examination (SEE), with each carrying 50% weightage.
 To qualify and become eligible to appear for SEE, in the CIE, a student must score at
least 40% of 50 marks, i.e., 20 marks.
 To pass the SEE, a student must score at least 35% of 50 marks, i.e., 18 marks.
 Notwithstanding the above, a student is considered to have passed the course, provided
the combined total of CIE and SEE is at least 40 out of 100 marks.
Continuous Comprehensive Assessments (CCA):
CCA will be conducted with a total of 25 marks. It is recommended to include a maximum of
two learning activities aimed at enhancing the holistic development of students. These
activities should align with course objectives and promote higher-order thinking and
application-based learning.
Learning Activity-1: Tutorial: Practicing problems (Average of two objective type
assessments for 15 marks each (Total 15 marks).
Learning Activity-2: Choose either lab activity or seminar for 10 marks
Lab activity: Execute the following lab exercises with the aid of any modern technological
tool (Matlab/ Mathematica/ Scilab/ Python/ Maxima, etc).
 Bangalore Institute of Technology
Department of Mathematics
(Autonomous College under VTU)

Seminars: The students has to present applications of mathematics related to syllabus as a

group maximum of four members.

Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE):

 Two Tests each of 25 Marks. The first after the completion 35-50% syllabus and the
second after 80-100%.
 The remaining 25 marks will be considered from CCA
Semester End Examination(SEE):
Theory SEE will be conducted as per the scheduled timetable, with common question papers
for the subject.
 The question paper shall be set for 100 marks. The medium of the question paper shall be
in English. The duration of SEE is 3 hours.
 The question paper will have 10 questions. Two questions per module. Each question is
set for 20 marks with a maximum of 3 sub-questions having a mix of topics under that
module. The students have to answer 5 full questions, selecting one full question from
each module.
 The marks scored by the student out of 100 are scaled down to 50 marks.
