GPA and CGPA
Grade Point Average (GPA) is the weighted average of the grade points obtained of all the courses passed/completed by a student in a semester. For example, if a student completes courses in a semester having credits of C1, C2, ……. , Cn and his grade points in these courses are G1 , G2, …. , Gn respectively then

The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is the weighted average of the GPA obtained in all the semesters completed by a student.  For  example,  if  a  student completes n Semesters having total credits of SC1, SC2 , … , SCn and his GPA in these terms are GPA1 , GPA2 , GPAn respectively then

 

Course Withdrawal
The last day for dropping a course with and without a record entry (i.e. “W”) is mentioned in the semester Academic Calendar. The grade “Withdrawal” (W) is assigned when a student officially drops a course within the date mentioned in the Academic Calendar for the semester. The instructor may drop students from a course if they fail to attend 80 percent of the scheduled classes. The student must keep the instructors informed regarding absences in classes.

Incomplete (I) Courses
The “Incomplete” (I) grade may be used in special circumstances. The “Incomplete” may be given only at the end of a semester to a student who has completed all other requirements except appearing in the final examination without further class attendance. The instructor must file with the Office of the Controller of Examinations an Incomplete Grade Form describing the work to be completed.

The student has the sole responsibility to take the initiative in making up the requirements for the Incomplete grade as specified by the instructor. If action is not taken within one week of the commencement of the next semester, the “I” grade will automatically be converted to “F”, otherwise the “I” grade will revert to the tentative final grade (the final grade becomes an “F” if no tentative grade was assigned). In the event where the instructor from whom a student received an incomplete grade is not available, the disposition of the case involving an incomplete grade resides with the respective Dean of Faculty.

The concerned Instructor must submit the Incomplete (I) Grade within one week of the next semester through Department Chairperson and the Dean, to the Office of the Controller of Examinations. Delayed Grade submission will require Vice Chancellor’s approval before it is entered into records. Usual submission of Grades by an Instructor shall be done as per Academic Calendar through proper channel.

Course Retake and Grade Improvement
A student will be allowed to retake as many courses as he/she wants, but students will be allowed to retake a particular course only once with any grade he/she earned previously.  A student with ‘F’ Grade(s) in a course(s) may Retake the same any number of times to pass within the time limit allowed for Graduation. In case of repeating a course due to ‘F’ grade, the ‘F’ grade of previous attempt(s) will be converted to ‘R’ grade and the grade of last attempt will be counted in CGPA. A student using the advantage of Retake Policy, shall not be eligible for getting Gold Medal/Award/ Distinction. Students who wish to retake a course must obtain previous written permission of the Chairperson of the Department concerned. They will have to register for the course again and will be required to pay the usual tuition charges including lab (if applicable) and other fees.

Credit/Course Transfer
Students who intend to be admitted into EWU with credit/course transfer are considered for admission based on the result of the admission test and courses completed at public universities of Bangladesh, and other reputed private universities of Bangladesh. Credit/course is generally transferable, provided that course work has been successfully completed and is equivalent to that offered at East West University.

Courses taken at other universities/institutions may satisfy the B.Sc. in Civil Engineering program curriculum requirements only if the courses are equivalent to EWU courses approved for the core curriculum and if a minimum (B-) grade was earned.  Course equivalencies are determined on the  basis  of  contents,  prerequisites,  writing requirements, and level. Some transfer students may be required to sit for placement examinations to determine eligibility for credit transfer. A maximum of twenty five percent (25%) of credit/course for the B.Sc. in Civil Engineering program may be accepted through credit transfer.

Credit/Course Waiver
Students having Diploma in Civil Engineering who intend to be admitted into B.Sc. in Civil Engineering program are eligible to get a waiver maximum of 15 (Fifteen) credits, having similarity of courses completed successfully during their diploma study.

Probation and Dismissal
Student whose CGPA will be between 1 and 2 after the first two or any subsequent semesters, will be placed on probation for the next two semesters. Failure to raise their CGPA to at least 2.25 after the probation period (irrespective of whether s/he is a regular student or remains absent without authorization) will lead to dismissal from the university. If a student’s CGPA falls below 2.25 subsequently, he/she will again be placed on probation. Student who are on probation or subject to dismissal are not allowed to drop a semester or to take leave of absence.

Academic Dismissal
A student whose CGPA falls below 1.0 after the first two or any subsequent semesters, will be automatically dismissed from the university. Students who fail to raise CGPA to satisfactory levels during the probation period will face dismissal from the university. Remedial Course may be required for students on the basis of their score in the English part of the admission test. Students who fail to pass in remedial courses in two attempts will be placed on probation. A student dismissed on academic ground (s) may be allowed to be admitted in another program of this university on qualifying the Admission Test for that program.

Course Content
The capstone project is an intense engineering exercise which is assigned to the final year students that span for three consecutive semesters. The capstone project generally involves a process of solving civil engineering related practical problems with considerations of safety; serviceability, economy, sustainability and impacts on society and environment. During this project, students will work in a team who will develop a viable solution for a real-life problem with guidance from the project advisor. At the end of the project, students will prepare a professional technical report which must be submitted to the project advisor and department.
