This is essential for evaluating student’s performance and progress. A range of 30% to 60% is usually adopted for continuous assessments weighting by the department in view of the work input expected from students in various courses. This is done by means of term papers, assignments, workshop practice, laboratory / studio projects etc. However, the more practical the course is, the higher the marks for continuous assessment. Therefore most of the studio, laboratory and workshop assignments, projects and practices will carry 60% as continuous assessment.
