CHOICE BASED CREDIT SYSTEM (CBCS):
The CBCS provides an opportunity for the students to choose courses from the prescribed courses comprising core, elective/minor or skill-based courses. The courses can be evaluated following the grading system, which is considered to be better than the conventional marks system. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce uniform grading system in the entire higher education in Odisha. This will benefit the students to move across institutions within Odisha to begin with and across states and countries. The uniform grading system will also enable potential employers in assessing the performance of the candidates. In order to bring uniformity in evaluation system and computation of the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) based on student’s performance in examinations, the UGC has formulated the guidelines to be followed.
Outline of Choice Based Credit System:
- Core Course: A course, which should compulsorily be studied by a candidate as a core requirement is termed as a Core course.
- Elective Course: Generally, a course which can be chosen from a pool of courses and which may be very specific or specialized or advanced or supportive to the discipline/ subject of study or which provides an extended scope or which enables an exposure to some other discipline/subject/domain or nurtures the candidate’s proficiency/skill is called an Elective Course.
- Discipline Specific Elective (DSE) Course: Elective courses may be offered by the main discipline/subject of study is referred to as Discipline Specific Elective. The University/Institute may also offer discipline related Elective courses of interdisciplinary nature (to be offered by main discipline/subject of study).
- Dissertation/Project: An elective course designed to acquire special/advanced knowledge, such as supplement study/support study to a project work, and a candidate studies such a course on his own with an advisory support by a teacher/faculty member is called dissertation/project.
- Generic Elective (GE) Course: An elective course chosen generally from an unrelated discipline/subject, with an intention to seek exposure is called a Generic Elective.
- P.S.: A core course offered in a discipline/subject may be treated as an elective by other discipline/subject and vice versa and such electives may also be referred to as Generic Elective.
- Project work/Dissertation is considered as a special course involving application of knowledge in solving / analyzing /exploring a real-life situation / difficult problem. A Project/ Dissertation work would be of 4 credits. A Project/Dissertation work may be given in lieu of a discipline specific elective paper.
GUIDELINES FOR PROJECT FORMULATION
As the project work constitutes a major component in most of the professional programs and it is to be carried out with due care and should be executed with seriousness by the candidates.
TYPE OF PROJECT
As majority of the students are expected to work out a real-life project in some industry/research and development laboratories/educational institutions/software companies, it is suggested that the project is to be chosen which should have some direct relevance in day-to-day activities of the candidates in his/her institution. It is not mandatory for a student to work on a real-life project. The student can formulate a project problem with the help of Guide.
PROJECT PROPOSAL (SYNOPSIS)
The project proposal should be prepared in consultation with the guide. The project proposal should clearly state the project objectives and the environment of the proposed project to be undertaken. The project work should compulsorily include the software development. The project proposal should contain complete details in the following form:
- Title of the Project
- Introduction and Objectives of the Project
- Project Category (RDBMS/OOPS/Networking/Multimedia/Artificial Intelligence/Expert Systems etc.)
- Analysis (DFDs at least up to second level, ER Diagrams/ Class Diagrams/ Database Design etc. as per the project requirements).
- A complete structure which includes: Number of modules and their description to provide an estimation of the student’s effort on the project. Data Structures as per the project requirements for all the modules. Process Logic of each module. Testing process to be used. Reports generation
- Tools / Platform, Hardware and Software Requirement specifications
- Future scope and further enhancement of the project.
