Assessment Criteria

Students ability to make calculations in course outcomes are evaluated using midterm and final examination. Their ability to use the information and capture the concepts in
applications are evaluated in laboratory experiments for which they have to prepare technical reports. Midterm consists 30% , Laboratory consists 20% and fina lexamination consists 50% of the final grade.
