Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

QUESTIONS ABOUT AUTONOMY

Q1. Who grants Autonomy? UGC, Govt., AICTE or University

In case of Colleges affiliated to a university and where statutes for grant of autonomy are ready, it is the respective University that finally grants autonomy but only after concurrence from the respective state Government as well as UGC. The State Government has its own powers to grant autonomy directly to Govt. and Govt. aided Colleges.

The University to which an autonomous college is affiliated will have checks on the performance of the autonomous college.


Q4. How will the Foreign Universities or other stake – holders know that we are an Autonomous College?

An autonomous college carries a prestigious image. Autonomy is actually earned out of our continued past efforts on academic performances, our capability of self- governance and the kind of quality education we offer.

There is a built in mechanism in the autonomous working for this purpose. An Internal Committee called Academic Programme Evaluation Committee, which will keep a watch on the academics and keep its reports and recommendations every year. In addition the highest academic council also supervises the academic matters. The standards of our question papers, the regularity of academic calendar, attendance of students, speed and transparency of result declaration and such other parameters are involved in this process.


Q7. Will the students of IARE as an Autonomous College qualify for University Medals and Prizes for academic excellence?

Therefore with the prior permission of the University the college will be entitled to give the provisional certificate.


Q10. Will Academic Autonomy make a positive impact on the Placements or Employability?

Certainly. The number of students qualifying for placement interviews is expected to improve, due to rigorous and repetitive classroom teaching and continuous assessment. Also the autonomous status is more responsive to the needs of the industry. As a result therefore, there will be a lot of scope for industry oriented skill development built-in into the system. The graduates from an autonomous college will therefore represent better employability.

(e.g. 91% and above is A+, 80 to 90 % could be A etc.) in Absolute Grading System while grades are awarded by statistical analysis in relative grading system. We thus dispense with sharp numerical boundaries. Secondly, the grades are associated with defined Grade Points in the scale of 1 to 10. Weighted Average of Grade Points is also defined Grade Points are weighted by Credits and averaged over total credits in a Semester.

Q17. What is a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA)?

An up-to-date assessment of overall performance of a student from the time of his first registration is obtained by calculating a number called CGPA, which is weighted average of the grade points obtained in all the courses registered by the students since he entered the Institute.

Where,
Cj= The number of credits offered in the jth course up to the semester for which CGPA is to be calculated.
Pj= Grade point earned in the jth course. A letter lower than D (i.e. Grade point<4) in a course shall not be taken into consideration for calculation of CGPA.
j= 1, 2, . . ………. m represent the number of courses in which a student’s is registered up to the semester for which CGPA is also rounded to two decimal places.


Q18. Is there any Software available for calculating Grade point averages and converting the same into Grades?
