Every course offered by any University Department is identified by a unique course code. A course may be
designed to involve lectures / tutorials / laboratory work / seminar / project work / practical training / report
writing / Viva voce, etc or a combination of these, to meet effectively the teaching and learning needs and the
credits are assigned suitably.

Semesters
An academic year consists of two semesters.
Odd Semester (I and III Semesters) : Normally between July and November
Even Semester (II and IV Semesters) : Normally between December and April

16
 A semester normally extends over a period of 15 weeks. Each week has 30 working hours spread over
a 5 day week. Credit requirements for M.Phil., P.G., P.G.Diploma, Diploma and Certificate course:-
