Term Work
Term work shall consist of,
1. Assignments: On topics drawn from syllabus [At least 1 assignment per module].
Minimum SIX exercises based on above topics including programming of
robots.

The distribution of marks for term work shall be as follows:


Laboratory work (Experiment/ programs and journal): 10 marks
Assignments: 10 marks
Attendance (Theory and Practical): 05 marks

The final certification and acceptance of term work ensures the satisfactory performance of
laboratory work and minimum passing in the term work.

Internal Assessment
Assessment consists of two tests out of which; one should be compulsory class test (on
minimum 40% of curriculum) and the other is either a class test (on minimum 70% of
curriculum) or assignment on live problems or course project.

Theory Examination
In question paper weightage of each module will be proportional to number of
respective lecture hours as mention in the syllabus.

1. Question paper will comprise of 6 questions, each carrying 20 marks.


2. Question number 1 will be compulsory and based on maximum contents of the
syllabus
3. Remaining questions will be mixed in nature (for example, if Q.2 has part (a) from
module 3 then part (b) will be from other than module 3)
4. Total four questions need to be solved.
