COURSE EXIT SURVEY: (will be collected at end of the course)

The purpose of this survey is to find out from students about their learning experiences and
feedback to improve the course content.
COURSE POLICY: (Compensation Assessment)
1. Attending all the assessment is mandatory for every student
2. Course policy will be followed as per the academic course regulation

COURSE ACADEMIC DISHONESTY AND PLAGIARISM:

1. All rules and regulation prescribed by the ACOE, University Departments, are applicable
in the Internal Assessment Tests and University (End Semester) Examinations.
(https://acoe.annauniv.edu/download_forms/student_forms/Guidelines.pdf)
2. In general, possessing a mobile phone, carrying bits of paper with materials, talking to
other students, copying from other students during Internal Assessment Tests and
University (End Semester) Examinations will be treated as Malpractice and punishable
as per the rules and regulations. The misuse of Assignment / Project / Seminar work
from others is considered as academic dishonesty and will be treated with the rules and
regulations of the University.
