OVERVIEW
The Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Varendra University (VU) will be offering four-year undergraduate degree program in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. The bachelor degree program requires 151 credits and is spread over 12 semesters with 3 semesters per year.
The aim of the degree program is to keep the students well equipped with the theoretical and practical knowledge of the particular branch. The Electrical and Electronic Engineering program is designed to produce graduates who will find themselves fit to practice electrical engineering in the following areas: Communications, Control Systems, Power Electronics and Power systems; define and diagnose problems, provide and implement electrical engineering solutions in the industry, business and government; observe engineering ethics in the practice of electrical engineering; communicate effectively with technically diverse audiences; collaborate with others as a member or as a leader in an engineering team; develop their knowledge and keep abreast of the advancements in electrical, electronic and telecommunication engineering.
The department has already developed its own laboratories in Electrical Circuits, Analog and Digital Electronics, The department will be developing, in due course, the laboratories in Power systems, Microwaves and Microprocessors, Electrical Machines, Switchgear and Protection, Communication Engineering and Control Systems.
The procedure of Credit Hour Semester System which will be practiced in the academic program at the Varendra University involves 13 weeks of class room instructions in each semester. For all 3 credit theory and 1.50 credit Lab courses, contact hour is 3 period/week. Each class period of theory/Lab courses will have a minimum duration of 50 minutes.
An academic year comprises three semesters, each semester spanning 4 months: 13 weeks for instruction and 3 weeks for registration and examinations. Semester starts at January (Spring Semester), May (Summer Semester) and September (Fall Semester).
The courses of the undergraduate curricula are divided into several groups:
The course in which a student obtains ‘D’ or higher grade will be counted as credit earned by the student. ‘F’ grade is not counted towards a student’s earned credits. A student who obtains an ‘F’ grade in any core course has to repeat the course. If a student obtains an ‘F’ grade in an optional course, he/she may choose to repeat the course or take a substitute course if available. ‘F’ grade is not counted for GPA calculations but will show on the Grade Sheet and Transcript. Students can appear in the supplementary examination to improve their grades. However, a student is permitted to appear in supplementary examinations not more than twice for a course and his/her credit is determined by averaging the marks obtained in the supplementary and original examination.
Evaluation of students’ performance will be based on final examination, midterm examination, class-test/assignments and attendance. Classroom evaluation including attendance, class tests and assignments will cover 25% of the total marks and the remaining 75% are reserved for the midterm and final examinations. For Lab courses evaluation will be based on attendance, Lab assessment, Lab report, Quiz and Viva. The distribution of marks is as follows:
Theory course:
Attendance 5%
Class test 10%
Assignment+Presentation 10%
Midterm Examination 25%
Final Examination 50%
Lab course:
Attendance 10%
Lab Assessment 20%
Report 20%
Quiz/Project 30%
Viva 20%
Note: If Letter Grade ‘I’ (Incomplete) is awarded to any student in any course, it will indicate that he/she has attended the course but did not appear in the semester midterm/final examination. Letter Grade ‘W’ indicates withdrawn from the course.
Student’s performance will be evaluated on the basis of Grade Point Average (GPA) semester wise and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of total completed courses.
The CGPA will be computed in the following manner:
CGPA = ∑Grade points X Credits/∑Credits
The minimum qualifications for admission into the undergraduate program are:
At least second division in both SSC and HSC (No third division is acceptable) or Minimum 2.5 GPA out of 5.00 in both S.S.C. and H.S.C. Student should be from Science background with Math and Physics.
