Academic Standards & Guidelines


SCIT is a constituent of SIU and will be required to follow SIU guidelines.
The students will follow these standards and guidelines until further notice.
SCIT has 2 semesters in an academic year. The programme for the academic
year is given in this Handbook. Schedules or timetable shall be put up on
the notice board and also published on SCIT Intranet. A student must attend
classes, labs, internal assessments and term-end examinations regularly.
During a semester, for each course, student attendance in class, lab etc. shall
be recorded.
a. Session Guidelines
Students must be in the class on or before the scheduled time. Latecomers
are not allowed to enter a classroom or any place of learning.
Before entering a classroom or lab or assembly hall or any other session,
mobile phones should be switched off.
During a session, laptops should be kept closed, unless instructed by the
concerned faculty member.
b. Attendance
1. SCIT follows continuous evaluation process that demands attendance in
all sessions. Students are advised to attend all sessions in their own
interest. Internal evaluation may be conducted unannounced if a faculty
so plans. No in-class evaluation will be repeated.
2. The students should ensure that the attendance in all sessions is 80% or
above. Defaulters will not be allowed to appear for the exams. This
is subject to change as per the guidelines given by the University
3. Students need to ensure 90% attendance for all the classes to be eligible
for the internship & placement processes.
Student Handbook 2016

Page 13

4. All absences should be pre-authorized. The above clause of 80%


attendance does not automatically entitle student to avail of leave for
remaining 20% classes.
5. Every Student will need to confirm his/her presence on campus once a
day by appropriate method as announced by institute from time to time.
6. The students should also ensure 100% attendance in co-curricular and
extra-curricular activities like seminars, guest lectures, holistic
development, health management sessions etc.
7. Students working for Student Committee should take prior sanction
from the committee-in-charge and Director/ Dy. Director /the person
designated by the Director, in case they cannot attend lectures due to
committee work. The approved sanction must be submitted to the
Coordinator one day in advance of the absence. Late submissions will
not be accepted and the student will remain marked as absent.
8. Internal Assessment (IA): Periodic assessment of learning occurred to
students during a course by using a combination of the instruments like
tests, presentations, viva, quizzes, assignments and others as devised by
the Faculty member, who is teaching the course.

Absenteeism: When a student does not attend a class, it is counted as


absenteeism. There can be two types of absenteeism unapproved and
approved. Unapproved absenteeism is the case when the student has
not taken the permission from the authority for remaining absent in a
class. Approved absenteeism is the case when the permission has been
granted by the authority.
Policy Statements:
Internal Assessment is an important activity of a course and remains the
sole discretion of the member of the Faculty, who has been given the
responsibility of teaching the course.

Student Handbook 2016

Page 14

An authority can only give suggestions to the Faculty member for


improvising the quality of Internal Assessment.
A student may remain absent in a class (or, classes) of a course (or,
courses) in following situations:
a. As per personal choice,
b. Medical unfitness,
c. Medical Emergency,
d. Personal Emergency in the family or
e. Any other unforeseen emergency.
If an Internal Assessment Component has been scheduled on the day
when a student has got an approval for absenteeism from the authority,
guidelines are to be followed as given below:
a. If the teaching Faculty member finds some suitable way of
evaluation during the course, he/she can conduct the same
when the course is going on.
b. If the absenteeism is long and spread across multiple
components,
or,
student misses the components towards the end
of the course,
or,
faculty member finds it difficult to conduct
another evaluation and so is accepted by the
authority (Deputy Director in charge of
academics at SCIT)
Student will have to appear in a comprehensive test of 60
marks for Internal Assessment of the course. This is decided
jointly by the Director and Dy. Director on case to case basis
For every course, the teaching Faculty member has to make a
Comprehensive Internal Assessment Test (CIAT) of 60 marks along

Student Handbook 2016

Page 15

with its model answers so that the test can be conducted and evaluated
in the absence of the concerned member of the Faculty.
Teaching Faculty member is expected to make CIAT question paper a
little tougher than overall Internal Examination components to
compensate for the extra time available with such students.
Examination Department will receive the question paper for
Comprehensive Internal Assessment Test (CIAT) for every course from
the teaching Faculty member before the end of the course.
Submission of IA marks by the teaching Faculty members must
explicitly mention Absenteeism of students in the mark sheet.
Students, who lost an opportunity to appear for an IA component due to
approved absenteeism and for whom no other evaluation could be
conducted, has to apply for CIAT to examination department with a
copy of the approved leave document.
Examination Department will conduct one CIAT (on advice from the
Director and Dy. Director) after completion of the course but before
External Examination based on the findings related to failures in
Internal Assessment (students getting less than 70% of class average in
Internal Assessment) and for the students, who fall in category stated in
bullet 9. It is not mandatory for the exam department to conduct
CIAT for students who fail.
Students, who have lost 75% or more of Internal Assessment (i.e.,
evaluation for 45 marks) due to absenteeism during the course, will be
evaluated for 100% of IA (i.e., 60 marks) using CIAT paper. Also, those
who have failed in IA will be assessed for 100% using CIAT.
Students, who have missed IA components of less than 45 marks (or
75% of IA), will get the marks for CIAT normalized to the respective
missed value. For example, if someone has missed IA component for 12

Student Handbook 2016

Page 16

marks (20% of IA), and got 36 out of 60 for CIAT, would get 7.2
marks for the missed IA component.
9. Authority: Director or Acting Director; Deputy Director or Acting
Deputy Director (with a consent from the Director).
10. Failure: Students who score less than 40% in Internal Assessment will
be considered as Failed in the Internal Assessment for the course.

fines, debarring from tests/examination, etc. or termination of studentship if
counseling and caution fails. SCIT Disciplinary Committees decision is
