BTech and MTech

Responding to a crucial requirement of the present times, DSU is offering an exclusive programme, a one of its kind, leading to BTech/MTech in Engineering & Entrepreneurship giving an option to students with innovative ideas to pick a very unusual combination of coming in as a student to participate in an academic program while also being trained to become an entrepreneur.

End of the 4 year course, the student would go out with a B.Tech in Engineering & Entrepreneurship as also own a Company. A similar program is designed for working professionals and fresh under graduates to start an enterprise at the DSU Start-up village and also join an MTech program.

This enterprise-academic plan would be backed by working professionals, experienced entrepreneurs and veterans drawn from industry who spend time as Visiting Professors and also acting as Mentors to entrepreneurs in the making.

Admission- DSAT Scores and InterviewsAdmission to the BTech / MTech in Engineering & Entrepreneurship programs would go through a special interview process in addition to DSAT Scores. Applicants have to submit their original ideas which they feel are good for transition into finish products. This national level selection would be routed through an eminent panel of industry experts, scientists, investors, researchers and academicians; and potential mentors/ adjunct professors.

Curriculum: A unique learning processThe curriculum would be seminar led with students expected to engage in research; coming out with answers, making presentations to peers and to the Visiting Professors - receiving comments, suggestions to

improvise, fine tune, change and re-strategise, wherever needed. It is more of doing and learning and at each attempt the outcome has to show better efficiencies and improved outcomes. With time and continuous fine tuning the product should be developed for acceptance in a global market.

The teaching-learning would have more industry inputs. Evaluation processes would be to assess and ensure the students continued ability to apply knowledge to a real product that should go to market. The student would be exposed to working professionals and Visiting Faculty / Professors on a regular basis; who bring with them a mountain of industry experience, information and new knowledge that is real time and good for any major challenge in the future making this program very different over the traditional Engineering courses offered at DSU or elsewhere.

How it worksEvery idea would have a team of 3-5 students; team members are chosen by the original owner of the idea or by the Chief Mentor. The criteria for students to be in a team would be originality, technical skills, entrepreneur ability, interpersonal skills, leadership, ability to learn more than one domain- for instance in addition to core Engineering, also master concepts in Design, Marketing, Finance, Logistics and other related fields that could be requirements for any independent individual project. DSU, thankfully, is privileged to access varied expertise to broadly provide for the individual project led needs.A key parameter for selection would be a students ability to bring in her / his margin of the total project costs-either on ones own or pooled from among the team members. All Mentors and Visiting Professors would be entitled to a stake in the ventures started by the students in exchange for time and value adds that they bring to each venture.

Semester VIII Go to Markets, Networking, Reach-out, Planning for manufacture, Design, Packaging, Distribution, Logistics.

A similar pattern as in the BTech program, to be completed in four semesters spread over 2 years.

Applicants should demonstrate a higher level of maturity and understanding and present more complex ideas that are critical to the economy, having an element of sustainability, reverse innovation- produced for India and other low priced economies- also fit for superior markets with add on features; to be sold at higher prices with a possible preference for use of local raw materials and other requirements, to find quicker global acceptance.

Work for an independent IndiaProject ideas are to lead to substantial import substitution, needing lesser time to go to market, should respond to Indias defence needs and similar other demands.

All other parameters being similar as in BTech, students with work experience would find preference in admissions.

SCHOOL Of HUMaNITIES

pG pROGRaM : MaSS COMMUNICaTION (Ma)

In a world that is fast changing with nations and citizens becoming free of borders and nationalities, the need for study of subjects in humanities has been greatly appreciated and has become an absolute necessity. A borderless world demands wholesome and well rounded individuals. This new emphasis is different from the traditional education that produced specialists in silos. Ultimately whatever education and training an individual receives, it needs to be used for the good of fellow human beings. This need for interaction has brought the focus back on: Good Basic Education combined with mastery in a chosen professional domain and a good training to deal with any situation involving another human being.

The Study of Humanities thus helps to develop cultural literacy and imbibe the aesthetic and ethical values among students.

This total and comprehensive experience would now come from the new education opportunities that are opening up; that is targeted at the total development of an individual. The School of Humanities at DSU fulfills a major need in the Indian education space.

The School also offers an undergraduate programme leading to a degree in Journalism and a Masters degree in Mass Communication.

The objectives are to be realized through: Support to original understanding of Indian Society

Pharmacy as a subject of study and practice leads to an exciting profession within the domain of medicine opening up opportunities to work with doctors, nurses and patients, drug developers, scientists and researchers.

With time and more advances in medicine and treatment of diseases the role of a Pharmacist also has kept pace. The Pharmacist brings with him in-depth knowledge of medicine, its action and also reaction of drugs on patients, the ideal recommendations on dosage, intensity and other factors.

The basic requirements for entry into a Pharmacy School are almost similar to that of the other health care programs and the academic rigour is also intense. Students need to demonstrate mastery in basic sciences before they move to more study on drug development and its delivery.

Pharmacists have found greater acceptance as key knowledge providers to medical practioners; on a real-time dynamic basis. Doctors, thus, spend time on regular basis to stay abreast on the drug development scenario while also giving feedback on the various noticeable changes or reactions to specific drugs on particular patients. This exchange of data, with another specialist would not be that effective as much as with a Pharmacist.

Pharmacists with strong technical knowledge and also spending considerable time on the field, in sales & distribution gain diverse experience of knowing the markets in the healthcare industry. Backed by

this integrated knowledge a Pharmacist could soon rise to occupy key leadership positions in large drug manufacturing companies or in major drug distribution sectors.

Many Pharmacists have become great health care administrators, in large hospitals, Government and other sectors. Academics and research has a huge shortage of Pharma specialists across the world. Thus the opportunities are vast.

The question is where would you study?

Pharma education is special at DSU. The school invariably has to work with the schools of Bio-sciences, Dentistry, Nursing, the Sagar Hospital and several other Centres of Excellence in the health care domain- all located within the campus. These independent institutions are housed closer to each other. Many of the labs in each of the departments are state of the art providing great opportunity for interdependence, opitimising resources and people expertise.

The School offers a PhD and Doctoral Programs (Pharm D) as also the regular Bachelor and Masters courses in Pharmaceutical Sciences.

Well laid out classrooms, labs, a distinguished group of academicians and industry professionals make up for the faculty.

pB BSc NURSING

A good number of young people chose Nursing as a career. The thinking and planning was perfect. This, at a time when the loudest talk was to become a doctor or an engineer.

The need for quality personalsied nursing care is the present trend. Nursing care, unlike as in the past, is completely changing; moving from the confined traditional settings as known previously.

Walking with a doctor on the rounds, or dressing a wound. Its all there! With time these trends are being replaced to higher levels of service offerings.

Nurses are taking into education: They give talks to Rotarians, schools & colleges, drivers & the police. They visit prisons as much as public places educating people on prevention of communicable diseases. The poster presentations, films and PPTs they produce or the confidence with which they talk, the skills they demonstrate are comparable to any B-School grad!

Yes! The traditional responsibility of being at the bedside and working with the surgical team is ever there. A hospitals success depends not so much on the machines and doctors it has. But its on the quality of nursing care provided in these hospitals. Not surprisingly a Nurse is employed, forever.

Nursing occupies priority in defence as much as in civil hospitals. Good salaries and career movement assures a long time growing demand for the nursing professional.

The newest option for a qualified Nurse is to enter practice. With hospital care on a steep rise, patients realise the needs for stay at home seeking nursing care from a practioner. A practicing Nurse is seeing a lucrative career as a consultant. Giving considerable flexibility to manage larger number of patients especially with a growing population that is living longer while also keeping an eye on her/his rising bank balance.

The School of Nursing Sciences is among the very few campuses to have an attached 415 bed super specialty hospital. It is also the only campus that allows students to be trained for professional skills as well as get exposed to the working of a specialty hospital which has doctors trained in the best of medical schools- who work on state of the art technology for effective outcomes on complicated procedures.

Our nursing students get to master one foreign language in addition to English and get to net work with exchange students coming from Finland to Singapore!

The faculty & students regularly interact with visiting faculty from the US and Finnish Nursing schools and other premier institutions within the country and elsewhere by planning and hosting international conferences in Nursing.

The Nursing grads from DSU, naturally, are sought after by all the major hospitals in the country and outside.

As a profession Allied Health has received a little less attention than it should have considering that 6 out of 10 specialists who can minimise pain in a patient are from this domain. The general impression when people have major health issues is they are to look up to doctors and nurses. But helping an entire health care system very substantively is the expert from the Allied Health field. Every medical report, tests, measurements, therapy before and post a procedure or surgery comes from experts who are not doctors or nurses or pharmacists; but are from the Allied Health background.

The services of a Physiotherapist with specialisation in sports are probably one of the most visible especially when a star sportsman falls or develops cramps or suffers an injury on the field. We find a specialist in sports injuries responding fast. The sportsman is quickly attended generally by the Physiotherapist and action on the sports ground is resumed. Similar responses are seen in Cardiac treatment emergency rooms and several other areas.

The Allied Health professional is critical for the good health of man. They form a vital link to the doctor and all his needs before, during and after every major procedure or surgery. This new recognition was a fact of life at Dayananda Sagar and thus the Allied Health programs covering Diploma, Bachelors and Masters level education is offered with great success.

The Sagar Hospitals and the other healthcare programs along with life sciences etc and many related fields of study make for a good integrated outcome even in a developing field that is relatively new in the overall health care sector.

Good faculty, labs, great support infrastructure, clinical facilities, modern classrooms and easy access to the facilities and expertise at Sagar Hospitals make the School of Allied Health a great choice.

REGISTRaTION

CREDIT BaSED SYSTEM

DSU uses a Credit Based System for assessment. Each course, theory as well as practical, is expressed in terms of a certain number of credits. The number of contact hours per week determines the credits. In the case of theory courses, the number of credits is equal to the number of contact hours (lectures & tutorials) per week. In practicals, one credit is assigned for every two contact hours per week.

Course work in each semester is expressed in terms of a specified number of credits.

Every course is assigned a [L T P C] code indicating Lectures / week, Tutorials / week, Practical / week and the Credits assigned. For example, a theory course with a [L T P C] code [3 1 0 4] has 3 hours of Lectures / week,

and 1 hour of Tutorial / week and the Credits assigned are 4. A lab course with [L T P C] code [0 0 6 3] has 6 hours of Lab / week, and the Credits assigned are 3.

A student successfully completes a particular semester when he / she earns the specified credits of that semester. A student earns full credits for a subject registered if he / she secures letter grade E or higher.

Promotion to higher semesters is based on securing a prescribed minimum number of credits, as detailed below.

A student completes the requirements for graduation when he/she earns the specified number of credits in all the semesters making up the course.

Re-RegistrationStudents can re-register in one or more courses offered in the current semester (both Theory and Labs) for improvement in internal assessment grades after paying the prescribed fees, if they had got F/ I /DT grade(s) earlier. Students need to attend regular classes in all such cases, and they have to submit assignments and appear for sessional tests along with the regular students. However re-registration during a regular semester will be allowed only with prior permission of respective HODs.

Pre-registrationEach student has to register for the core courses with the parent department at the commencement of each semester on the day notified in the academic calendar.

They must also register for the elective courses (both program & open electives) they wish to take for the next semester as notified in the academic calendar.


CREDIT SYSTEM aND EvaLUaTION pROCEDURE

Education at the Institute is organized around the semester-based credit system of study. A student is allowed to attend classes in a course for which he has registered and earn credit for it. The prominent features of the credit system are a process of continuous evaluation of a students performance/progress and flexibility to allow a student to progress at an optimum pace suited to his/her ability or convenience, subject to fulfilling minimum requirements for continuation.

Number of credits earned and completed would decide the performance of a student. All courses in Engineering programmes require that a student must obtain a minimum grade point average in each semester to progress through the course and continuation in the programme. Also a minimum number of earned credits and a minimum grade point average should be acquired in order to qualify for the degree. Details as given in clauses below explain how grade point is calculated to arrive at semester grade point average as well as cumulative grade point average.

3.1 Course Credits AssignmentFor each course a certain number of credits are assigned depending upon whether it is lecture, tutorial or laboratory contact hours in a week. The assigned credits for each subject are calculated as:Lectures and Tutorials: One lecture or tutorial hour per week is assigned one credit.Practical / Laboratory: Two hours of laboratory work per week is assigned one credit.

A few courses are without credits and are referred to as non-credit (NC) courses.

A student, who has earned the requisite credits but is not able to obtain minimum CGPA for graduation may opt for additional courses under departmental electives to meet the CGPA requirement within the permissible time.

3.2 How to earn creditsGrade is awarded at the end of each course for which a student has registered. The table 1 given shows the relationship among Grade, Grade point and % of marks. On obtaining a pass grade, the student accumulates

the course credits as earned credits. Performance is measured by the number of credits that a student has earned and by the weighted grade point average. A student has the option of auditing some courses. Grades obtained in these audit courses are not counted for computation of grade point average. A pass grade is essential for earning credits from an audit course. A minimum number of earned credits are required in order to qualify for a degree and continuation of registration at any stage.

3.3 Grading SystemThe course coordinator formulates appropriate procedure to award grades that are reflective of the students performance.

3.4 Relationships among Grades, Grade points and % of marks

The grades and their equivalent numerical points are listed in Table given below.

Table 1: Grades and their description

Grade Grade points

Description % Marks

O 10 Outstanding 90.1 - 100

A+ 9 Excellent 80.1 - 90

A 8 Very good 70.1 - 80

B+ 7 Good 60.1 - 70

B 6 Above Average 55.1 - 60

C 5 Average 50.1 - 55

P 4 Pass 45.1 - 50

E 2 Poor 40 44.9

F 0 Very poor < 40

IC - Incomplete

AP - Audit pass

AF - Audit fail

WD - Withdrawal

CD - Continued

SC - Satisfactory completion

CC - Course continuation


3.5 Description of gradesFrom the above table it is clear that there is a relationship among the grades, grade points and % of marks. This has been prepared keeping in view the guidelines given by the UGC. The grade points are awarded on a scale of 10. A student is required to obtain minimum grade P with grade point 4 to be declared pass.

A student getting E grade can appear for re-exam in consultation with course coordinator for upgrading his grade points. Anybody getting F & below will have to repeat the course.

A student who has scored < 40% aggregate marks in a subject can be awarded an E Grade. Students who obtain an E Grade will be eligible to take a re-major test (an examination with weightage same as that of Major). If they perform satisfactorily, they become eligible for getting the grade converted to a D Grade, otherwise they will continue to have E Grade. However, the student will have only one chance to appear for re-major for an E Grade. The re-major test will be conducted within the first week of the next semester. The date of re-major test of first year courses will be centrally notified by the co-ordinator, Time table committee. A student can take a maximum of three such re-major tests in a given semester. If a student can not appear for the re-major test due to any reasons, he/she will not get any additional chance.

E and F GradeA student has to repeat all core courses in which he/she obtains F Grades until a passing grade is obtained. For E Grade in a core course, a student has to repeat the same core courses or take a re-major test to obtain a passing grade. For the other (elective) courses in which E or F grade have been obtained, the student may take the same course or any other course from the same category or take re-major in case of E Grade. E or F Grades are not counted in the calculation of the CGPA; however, these are counted in the calculation of the SGPA.

IC GradeAn IC grade denotes incomplete performance in any L (lecture), P (practical), V (special module) category

courses. It may be awarded in case of absence on medical grounds or other special circumstances, before or during the major examination period. The student should complete all requirements within(i) 10 days of the last date of Major Tests; the request

is to be made to the head of the department of the students programme who will notify the same to the concerned course coordinators, or

(ii) With permission of the Dean, Academics the period can be extended to the first week of the next semester. A student will be eligible for an IC grade provided he/she has met the attendance criterion.

Upon completion of all course requirements, the IC grade is converted to a regular grade (O to F, AP or AF).

Requests for IC-grade should be made at the earliest but not later than the last day of major tests.

Attendance in the course for which IC- grade is being sought will be certified by the course coordinator of the course. The course coordinators can instruct all students awarded IC or extended IC grade to appear for the re-major of the `E grade. On the basis of their performance a student having IC grade or extended IC grade can earn any permissible grade unlike students taking re-major after obtaining E grade.

3.6 Evaluation of PerformanceThe performance of a student will be evaluated in terms of the Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) which is the Grade Point Average for a semester, Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) which is the Grade Point Average for all the completed semesters.

A student who completes the course and credit requirements but has CGPA below the minimum required for award of degree will be evaluated in terms which is calculated on the basis of the best valid credits category wise; for all the completed semesters at any point of time until the maximum permissible period.

The Earned Credits (E.C.) are defined as the sum of course credits for courses in which students have been awarded grades between O to P or AP or SC. (Table 1)


Points earned in a semester = (Course credits x Grade point) for courses in which O - P or AP or SC (given in table 1)

The SGPA is calculated on the basis of grades obtained in all courses, except audit courses and courses in which E grade or below, registered for in the particular semester.

When all the seats in a given course/s are filled, candidates may choose to be waitlisted. Candidates will be waitlisted as per their rank order in the counseling.

i) Candidates may opt for one course and simultaneously get waitlisted for other course/s. Such candidates are required to pay the fee for the course to which they are admitted. Failure to pay the fee will result in immediate forfeiture of the seat. On subsequent selection to the course to which they are waitlisted, these candidates need to pay the difference of fees, if any.

ii) Candidates who opt only to be waitlisted need not pay any fee until they receive the selection intimation from the university that they have been selected for admission from the waiting list as a consequence of withdrawal or cancellation of admission of any originally admitted candidate.

iii) The University officer in-charge of counseling will declare the waiting list for each course as closed as soon as he/she is satisfied that an adequate number of candidates have been waitlisted for that course.
