However, such students, if interested, have the option of choosing another specialization, which is being offered.

Students need to maintain a minimum of 75% attendance in each subject to be eligible for appearing for the end semester university exams. However, in special circumstances, student may be permitted to take the examination even if he / she has less than 75% attendance (but not less than 60% in individual subjects) only if he / she produces a letter from the concerned authority supporting the genuineness of the cause for absence.

Evaluation Methodology
The letter grading system (Credit Based) will be adopted to evaluate the performance of the students. The evaluation is done on the basis of internal assessment and end semester examinations.

Project Work
The students need to undertake a two months duration project work in their organization or on their own, in the chosen area of specialization. The score assigned to the Project Report, Presentation and Viva-Voce is considered in the final calculation of marks and declaration of result. Project work evaluation will follow the fixed grading system.

Grade A+ A B C D E F

Grade Value 10 9 8 7 6 5 0

Outline of Evaluation
The student performance in each subject is evaluated out of a maximum of 100 marks, of which 50% is for in-semester assessment and 50% for the end semester examintions. However a candidate must score a minimum of 35%marks in the end semester exam to be eligible for passing grades. In-semester assessment will be based on continuous evaluation, the factors of which will include attendance, assignments, case presentations and class tests. The overall performance of a student in different subjects is expressed in terms of a Letter Grade. Both internal assessment and the University viva-voce examination marks will be considered for awarding the grade.

Examination
The examinations are conceived, developed and administered on a rigorous and fair basis to bring out the best in the students and prepare them for challenging careers in the world of management. The examination for the program is conducted at the end of each semester. A student will be promoted to the higher semester irrespective of the number of subjects he/she has passed.

Credit Based System/ Letter Grades

The educational process uses credit based system. The program content of individual subject is expressed in terms of certain number of credits. The number of credits assigned to a subject depends on the number of contact hours. The program content of each semester is expressed in terms of a specified number of total credits. A student is deemed to have successfully completed a particular semes ter's program of study when he/she earns all the credits of that semester, i.e., he / she has no F grade in any subject of that semester.

The number of credits attached to a program will be multiplied by the grade value (i.e. points) to arrive at the grade points secured by a student in that subject. The total of the grade points divided by the total credits gives GPA per semester. At the end of the program, CGPA is arrived at by the weighted average of the GPAs of the four semesters. A student who has secured F grade in one or more subjects, irrespective of the reason, has to take a supplementary examination in each of such subjects.

minimum attendance per subject is 60% and the average attendance in the semester is 75% the candidate will be allowed to take the exam. Students who take break due to official assignment can avail certain exemption in attendance by producing a written document/letter from the company. In such cases the minimum attendance required per subject cannot be less than 60% and the average attendance in the semester has to be 60%. If the above criteria is not met the candidate can take exams only for those subjects with attendance of 75% and above. However, if the candidate is keen on attending lectures for the subject missed during the break, he/she can join the lectures in the next available batch and appear for the exam.

Long-term Break
If required, a candidate can take a long term break spanning upto one year (first year of study). However, such break will be allowed only for official reasons such as deputation on project abroad or at other locations. Note A candidate is eligible to take short / long-term breaks provided we have a batch to offer.

Evaluation of Project Work

The evaluation of the project work will be based on the quality of the report and student's performance in a viva-voce & presentation, divided as 50% for project report and the rest 50% for viva-voce & presentation. The viva-voce will be conducted by external examiners.

Continuous Internal Evaluation

Manipal University follows continuous system of internal evaluations to monitor / improve the performance of students. Internal evaluation shall be based on assignment / test / examinations and seminars conducted in respective subjects total weight age for the same will be 50%. (There will be two internal tests in each subject and one assignment)
