Credit System

A Credit System based on the AICTE norms has been introduced for indicating the efforts required to pass a specific level of course for the first time under the DOEACC Scheme. Award of credit to a student shall facilitate quantitative evaluation / comparison of study hours including Theory lectures, Tutorials and Practical Assignments put in a given paper / subject under the Scheme with similar courses in IT and Electronics offered by Universities and others in India and abroad for considering academic and professional equivalence of DOEACC courses. This shall also help students / organizations to transfer credits from DOEACC to other academic bodies i.e. Universities / Apex / Accrediting bodies and vice-versa for ensuring continuing education. The subjectwise credits earned by a student, based on the number of lectures, tutorials and practicals hours per week, are mentioned alongwith subjects under subsection " Course Structure" of the concerned level.

Credits are calculated based on the formula C = L + (P + T)/ 2

Where
C = Credit of a subject / course
L = Lecture hours per week
P = Practical hours per week
T = Tutorial hours per week
