Activity may be N.S.S., N.C.C., or any other physical education. The curricula for B.Tech. programme includes compulsory Industrial training or R & D Experience (SIRE) of 8 weeks duration after 6th semester in any reputed industry, research organization, IIT's and other reputed institutions which is assessed in the 7th Semester. Besides the successful AIEEE candidates, a specified number of foreign nationals/NRI selected with the policy laid down by Govt. of India are admitted directly to the 1st year of any of the courses. The Project work will carry a total of 10 credits. The departments can choose the distribution of credits between 7th and 8th semester, the preferred one being 4+6 or 6+4 credits. ii) Academic Calendar : The academic session is divided into two semesters each of approximately 17 weeks duration, an Autumn Semester (July-December) and a Spring Semester (January-June). The AIEEE selected candidates take admission in the Institute and do registration for the semesters on the dates as per Academic Calendar approved by the Senate. The Senate approves the academic calendar consisting of schedules of activities for a session inclusive of dates for registration, mid-semester and end-semester examinations, inter-semester breaks etc. well in advance of start of a session. The Academic Calendar shall usually provide for a total of about 85 working days in each semester. iv) Registration: To be able to register in the 2nd year (3rd semester) and continue his/her study in the Institute at the end of 1st year, a student must iii) Programme Structure : The duration of the programme leading to B.Tech.Degree is four years and Dual Degree B.Tech. & M.Tech. and Integrated M.Sc. are five years. The curricula for the different degree programmes as proposed by the respective departments and recommended by the Undergraduate Programme Evaluation Committee (UGPEC) shall have the approval of the Senate. The departments would also prepare the syllabus of each subject containing the scope of studies and detailed instructions to be imparted which must have the approval of the Senate. All subjects would have a lecture-tutorial-practical (laboratory/sessional) component (L-T-P) to indicate the contact hours. The tutorial (T) or practical/ Sessional (P) component may be absent in certain courses. Separate pure laboratory subjects (0-0-P) may exist in certain cases as decided by the Senate. All subjects will have a credit count 'C'. Teaching of subjects will be reckoned in terms of credits. In each of the First two semesters, there shall be two credits for Extra Academic Activity (EAA) consisting of 3 hours activity per week. The Extra Academic National Institute of Technology Rourkela a) complete satisfactorily at least 40 credits of courses prescribed for the two semesters, i.e., secure 'P' or higher grade in at least 40 credits of prescribed courses b) obtain a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of not lower than 5.70 (considering all courses including those in which the student has secured an F grade) c) If the CGPA at the end of the First year is between 5.00 and 5.69 (both inclusive), the student may be permitted to suspend his/her studies and resume it in the following year along with the next batch of students. In the repeat year, he/she must attend classes and be treated at par with fresh students, with no memory of grades in the previous year. The B.Tech. programme must then be completed within 6 years of the original admission. However, if the CGPA is less than 6.00 in the repeat year, the student must leave the Institute. d) While registering for 3rd, 5th or 7th semester, a student may register for backlog papers of 1st, 3rd or 5th semester respectively and while registering for 4th, 6th or 8th semester, he/she may register for backlog papers of 2nd, 4th or 6th semester respectively. A student need not attend classes in papers registered as "backlog papers". He/she has to sit for both mid-semester and end-semester examinations and the grade will be awarded based on the scores of the latest examinations. The Teacher's assessment component will be same as that given by the instructor in the original semester, when he/she attended classes. The registration for backlog papers must be done at the time of semester registration. In all such cases of "backlog paper", the grade awarded will be one step lower than what 9 Annual Report 2011-2012 the student actually obtained, except for the grade 'P' which remains unchanged. e) Alternatively, a student may opt to repeat a course afresh, in which case he/she will attend classes, and there will be no reduction of grade awarded. He will, however, be ineligible for awards of medals and prizes which are based on academic performance. If regulations and examination schedule otherwise permit, a student may register for an even semester elective in odd semester and vice-versa. A student may change an elective course if he/she satisfies the pre-requisites and if the timetable permits. If a student has completed 8 semesters of study but has a few F grades still left, he must register for them as full time courses and attend classes if time table permits, instead of only writing exams as backlog papers. The entire programme must be completed within 6 years. score. If a student gets CGPA below 6.0 in the 4th consecutive semester, he must leave the Institute to pursue other avenues of study instead of ruining his career at NIT, Rourkela. In truly exceptional circumstances, if the arithmetic of the grade card dictate that the required improvement can only be achieved in at least 2 semesters, the Senate, at its discretion may sanction 2 semesters instead of one to improve CGPA with ba maximum of 4 new courses spanning over two semesters.The reasons for such exception should be recorded. Such a decision needs to be made at the beginning of the 4th semester of failure and not after a student fails to raise his CGPA in the 4th semester of failure. Education System (PG ): (i) It is necessary for a student to maintain a CGPA equal to or above 6.00 at all times.If the CGPA falls below 6.00 he should enter a slow pace programme in his own interest.The following procedure will be used to make "slow pace" mandatory for a student with poor performance. A modified grade point average called MGPA will be computed by replacing all F and X grades by P grades. If the MGPA equals or exceeds 6.00, he may be permitted to register for a full suite of higher semester courses at the discretion of Faculty Advisor. If the MGPA remains below 6.00 the student must enter a slow pace programme. i) Introduction The M.Tech. regulation provides the necessary guidelines for the Post-Graduate programme of two years duration. However, persons working in various organizations can join the same course in a slow pace which is of 3 years duration. In this case the course work will be of 2 years (4 semesters) duration, the third year being devoted for Project/Thesis as usual. The course structure and subjects remaining the same, the workload of one semester is split up into two semesters. When a student of 1st semester gets a CGPA score below 6.0 or a student of any other semester scores CGPA below 6.0 for two consecutive semesters, parents will be required to visit the Institute and will be appraised of the position. Students of 3rd or higher semesters will be permitted to register in the next semester only in slow pace in such a manner that he has a possibility of improving his CGPA above 6.0. Parents and students will give undertaking that they are aware of the possibility of leaving the Institute. ii) Admission Requirement : It has been defined in clause 2.6 of M.Tech. regulation If at the end of 3rd consecutive semester, he still fails to improve CGPA above 6.0, he will still be permitted to register with following restrictions: Parents will visit the Institute and give an undertaking that they will do everything possible including psychological counseling to improve motivation of student. In addition to 22 regular M.Tech. programmes, the Institute offers a Master of Technology degree by research, termed as M. Tech. (Res) in all Engineering disciplines. iii) Duration : The duration of M.Tech. course is two years (broken up to four semesters) and 3 years for those admitted under slow pace category. A student admitted to P.G. programme has to finish all requirements and obtain the degree in a maximum time period of four years. The duration for completing coursework, however, is maximum 2 years for full time regular programme while for slow pace the maximum duration is 3 years. The student will enroll only in Backlog courses and courses with 'P' grade with no new course. There should be a reasonable chance of improving his National Institute of Technology Rourkela 10 Annual Report 2011-2012 1.5 New Initiatives Academic Reform 1.

The final grades awarded to the students in a subject must be submitted by the teacher on line within the dates specified in the Academic Calender. The teacher submits a separate report on all students obtaining F or I grades on Forms AC/121 and AC/122.

The evaluated scripts of the end-semester examinations are to be shown to the students at the beginning of the next semester, but not later than 2 weeks from the starting of classes. There is no limit on how early a teacher can show the evaluated scripts to the students.

Every Department will send one comprehensive report for each semester in a standard format. If a student is dissatisfied with his/her grade, he/she may bring it to the attention of the teacher within two weeks from the first day of commencement of classes in the next semester. The teacher may change the grades if he finds an error in evaluation. The teacher will report the change of grade to the Departmental Academic Committee [Form AC/120] along with all relevant papers (answer scripts, attendance register etc) before a specified date. The DAC will submit a consolidated report as per standard form to the Examination office for correction of records. If the student still feels aggrieved, he/she will file a formal complaint with Dean (AA) through his/her faculty advisor and HOD with a copy to the teacher (evaluator). If no complaint is filed within one month from the first day of classes in the next semester, the student is deemed to have accepted the results and no further change of grade is permitted. The teachers are expected to retain all answer scripts, assignments and laboratory records for a period of two months from the starting of classes in the next semester. After that the material may be disposed off, except for the students who have filed a complaint. In case of complaint filed before the expiry of two months, the material need to be saved till all disputes are settled and final grade awarded. All relevant material will be handed over by the teacher to the Head of the Department for safe keeping in the department office. The teacher, at his discretion, may retain a photo copy. There is no provision for supplementary or alternative mid semester exams in a P.G. course. A student who secures an F grade in First or Second semester or misses an examination due to a compelling reason, may appear at the examinations during 3rd or 4th semester as backlog papers, the later being subject to satisfactory attendance record. In such cases the grade will be reduced by one step, except in case of P grades which remain unchanged. A student can get full credit if he misses examination for a compelling reason and has over 95% attendance. If a National Institute of Technology Rourkela 21 Annual Report 2011-2012 student does not satisfy attendance requirements, he will have to formally register for the courses during 3rd or 4th semesters, in which case his date of thesis submission gets deferred. 2.9 Placement : The Training and Placement Centre has been actively performing and coordinating a number of professional activities for the students.

Subuddhi Name of the Brief Report Scholar Subhraseema Das Various hydrogels are being synthesized, inclusion complexes of fluorescent model drugs with cyclodextrins have been investigated. PVA hydrogels with and without cyclodextrins have been investigated for drug delivery efficiency. It is observed that addition of PVA to PAA increases significantly the mechanical strength and stability of the hydrogel films. The presence of CD in the polymer film increased the drug intake capacity of the film. The difference in intake is significantly higher in case of hydrophobic drugs. The presence of CD prolongs the release of the drug from the hydrogel matrix. Spectroscopic Investigation of Dr. U. Subuddhi Serum Proteins Smruti Snigdha Interaction of Coumarin-1 a warfarin Mishra analogue with Bovine Serum Albumin has been investigated.
