Trimester Project / Project Feasibility Report
Each student has to write a project to justify the award of testimonial/certificate/title.This should show that the student is capable of scientific analysis of a problem andcan approach the solution for the same in a systematic manner. The projects mustprovide sufficient indication that the student is competent to assimilate skills acquiredin various disciplines for successful application to solve a complex problem. Normallya student works in an organisation on a practical assignment for about three to ninemonths. He writes a project report connected with practical assignment. (See alsoplacement service). Projects can also be completed on the basis of research materialsavailable in libraries. Apart from the above, there are various other projects andtraining assignments, which are compulsory for all students at IIPM International, aswill be clear in the following project distribution table.
Examination/Re-examination/Re-evaluation
Examinations are held at the end of each trimester. Periodic tests and quizzes are held to assess continually the achievement of students. Written examinations may be supplemented by oral tests, whenever necessary. Marks obtained by candidates will be sent to parents/guardians with remarks on general behaviour of the candidates.
Course content of papers for re-examinations will be as per the latest syllabi followed at the Institute. Students will be given the opportunity for re-examinations (to be held one month after final examination) in the subjects they have failed or, if they so desire, to improve upon the marks already obtained. A fee of Rs. 50/- per credit will be charged for all re-examinations.
Students who secure an average of 60% and above will be placed in the first class. A student who fails to secure an average of 50% and who does not pass in all the papers will only be awarded the trimester marksheet and not the certificate/testimonial.
To be eligible for such testimonials, one has to pass at least 100/120 credits inclusive of core subjects and has to acquire relevant experience (2/3 years) as an executive.
