Outlines of the Academic Program

The Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) offers the 4-Year B.Sc. in Computer Science and Engineering. The course curricula consist of theoretical classes, laboratory sessions, project works, viva voce and etc.. The academic program of the 4-Year CSE Degree course consists of 12 semesters each of 4-months duration and a total of 144 credit hours.

Academic Semesters

In each yearthere are three academic semesters and each semester’s schedule is as follows:

 

 

Each semester is of 15 (fifteen) week duration of which 13 weeks is for teaching, 1 week for preparatory leave and 1 week forthesemester final examination.

Required Academic Qualifications for Admission

 

• Candidates having a total of minimum 4 points (3 points for 1^st Division, 2 points for 2^nd Division and 1 point for 3^rd Division) or CGPA of 2.0 in SSC and HSC in Science background are eligible to apply for the B.Sc in CSE Program.
• 3/4-Year Engineering Diploma holders can also take admission. For Diploma holders, the course duration will be 3 years on the basis of course waiver.

 

Admission test and Selection

The Head of the department with the assistance of his colleagues scrutinize the applications for written admission test. The successful candidates in written admission test need to appear for oral test for the final selection.

The final selection of students for admission to Bachelor degree program in CSE is made on the basis of the students’ past academic records, marks obtained in various public examinations and marks obtained in the admission test (both written and oral). The selection will be made by the admission committee of the department and their decision is the final in this respect.

 

 

Admission on Credit transfer   

Applicants who intend to get admitted into PU on credit transfer may be considered for admission based on the result of the admission test and the courses which are successfully completed at any government approved public and private universities or institutions in home and abroad provided that the completed courses are equivalent to the offered courses at this university. The Equivalence Committee evaluates the courses according to the established rules of the PU.

8. Re-admission

• A student getting GPA below 2 in each academic year may seek readmission with the next batch. For readmission, a student will have to apply within one month of publishing of the result of the concerned year.

• On readmission, grades earned earlier by a student in the class year of readmission shall cease to exist and the students shall have to retake all the courses and re-examinations with necessary fees. Readmission shall be allowed only once in a class year. A student is not allowed for readmission for more than two classes year during the entire program. A class year is defined three consecutive semesters.

 

Examination System

• Semester final Examination of B.Sc. in CSE shall be held after the end of 14^th week of each semester.
• Results of each semester shall be published within 7 days after the semester final examination is over.
• There will be provision for improvement of results which will be allowed for them only in one full academic session. In case a reappeared student fails to improve his/her result, his/her previous result shall stand.
• No student shall be declared to have passed the B.Sc. examination, unless he/she clears all the papers/courses including class test, mid-term examination, viva voce and etc by securing minimum qualifying GPA of 2.0.
• For the examination of the project, a 3-member examination committee consisting of two faculty members (the project supervisor will be one of the committee members) of CSE department plus an external examiner will be formed by the Dean of the Faculty of Engineering through consultation with the Chairperson of the department. For the examination of the Internship, the same committee will work. If the Committee desires, the Internship Supervisor of the Firm/Organization where internship is carried out may be co-opted. The Internship report must be signed and countersigned by Internship Supervisor and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) respectively of the Firm/Organization.
