An atmosphere of community living prevails on the
campus. The fervor with which every festival and social
event is celebrated is a reflection of the close bonding in
the KIMI community. Each day is bathed in its own shade,
whether its another guest lecture or a friendly football
match in the Activity centre or simply a presentation for
the next communication session. Influencing practice and
value based growth is the motto of lear ning at KIMI. Group
lear ning and team spirit are the all-pervasive themes
that can be observed in classroom discussions, on the
playground, in the bistro queues- in short everywhere.
Each year a group of students is elected to form the
Students Representative Council headed by two elected
co-presidents from third year. The SRC represents
students in meeting with management and communicates
the student body’s views and specific request. The council
manages its own budget and activity contributes to life on

Assessments &
Grading
The purpose of assessment is to enable students to
demonstrate that they have fulfilled the objective of a
programme of study and achieved the standard required
for its associated award. All programmes of study are
subject to course regulations that relate assessment
requirements to the programme objectives; it is on the
basis of these requirements that the examiners judge
students. Assessment must reflect overall student
performance. While marks and grades make a contribution
they have no inherent absolute value and the final
assessment must look beyond their mere computation.
Where elements of assessment occur throughout a
programme of study, students are advised of the quality
of their work but should also be advised that marks
remain provisional until ratified by the Examination Board.
Consequently, the academic judgment of an Examination
Board cannot be formally questioned or overtur ned. An
appeal against the recommendation for an award can
only be made on the grounds that information relevant
to a particular assessment was not available to the
Examination Board when it reach its decision or on
evidence of procedural irregularity.
