Each course is denoted by a unique code consisting of three alphabets followed by three
numerals like E C L 2 0 1. The first two letter code refers to the department offering the
course. EC stands for course in Electronics & Communication, course code MA refers to a
course in Mathematics, course code ES refers to a course in Engineering Science etc. Third
letter stands for the nature of the course as indicated in the Table 1.
Table 1: Code for the courses
Code Description
T Theory based courses (other the lecture hours, these courses can have tutorial
and practical hours, e.g., L-T-P structures 3-0-0, 3-1-2, 3-0-2 etc.)
L Laboratory based courses (where performance is evaluated primarily on the basis
of practical or laboratory work with LTP structures like 0-0-3, 1-0-3, 0-1-3 etc.)
N Non-credit courses
D Project based courses (Major, Mini Projects)
Q Seminar Courses
Course Number is a three digit number and the first digit refers to the Academic year in
which the course is normally offered, i.e. 1, 2, 3, or 4 for the B. Tech. Programme of four
year duration. Of the other two digits, the last digit identifies whether the course is offered
normally in the odd (odd number), even (even number) or in both the semesters (zero). The
middle number could be any digit. ECL 201 is a laboratory course offered in EC department
for third semester, MAT 101 is a course in Mathematics offered in the first semester, EET
344 is a course in Electrical Engineering offered in the sixth semester, PHT 110 is a course in

MINOR
Minor is an additional credential a student may earn if s/he does 20 credits worth of
additional learning in a discipline other than her/his major discipline of B.Tech. degree. The
objective is to permit a student to customize their Engineering degree to suit their specific
interests. Upon completion of an Engineering Minor, a student will be better equipped to
perform interdisciplinary research and will be better employable. Engineering Minors allow
a student to gain interdisciplinary experience and exposure to concepts and perspectives
that may not be a part of their major degree programs.
The academic units offering minors in their discipline will prescribe the set of courses and/or
other activities like projects necessary for earning a minor in that discipline. A specialist
basket of 3-6 courses is identified for each Minor. Each basket may rest on one or more
foundation courses. A basket may have sequences within it, i.e., advanced courses may rest
on basic courses in the basket. S/he accumulates credits by registering for the required
courses, and if the requirements for a particular minor are met within the time limit for the
course, the minor will be awarded. This will be mentioned in the Degree Certificate as
“Bachelor of Technology in xxx with Minor in yyy”. The fact will also be reflected in the
consolidated grade card, along with the list of courses taken. If one specified course cannot
be earned during the course of the programme, that minor will not be awarded. The
individual course credits earned, however, will be reflected in the consolidated grade card.
ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING
(i) The curriculum/syllabus committee/BoS shall prepare syllabus for courses to be included
in the curriculum from third to eight semesters for all branches. The minor courses shall be
identified by M slot courses.
(ii) Registration is permitted for Minor at the beginning of third semester. Total credits
required is 182 (162 + 20 credits from value added courses)
(iii) Out of the 20 Credits, 12 credits shall be earned by undergoing a minimum of three
courses listed in the curriculum for minor, of which one course shall be a mini project based
on the chosen area. They can do miniproject either in S7 or in S8. The remaining 8 credits
could be acquired by undergoing 2 MOOCs recommended by the Board of studies and
approved by the Academic Council or through courses listed in the curriculum. The classes
for Minor shall be conducted along with regular classes and no extra time shall be required
for conducting the courses.
(iv) There won’t be any supplementary examination for the courses chosen for Minor.
(v) On completion of the program, “Bachelor of Technology in xxx with Minor in yyy” will be
awarded.
(vi) The registration for minor program will commence from semester 3 and the all
academic units offering minors in their discipline should prescribe set of such courses. The
courses shall be grouped into maximum of 3baskets. The basket of courses may have
sequences within it, i.e., advanced courses may rest on basic courses in the basket.
Reshuffling of courses between various baskets will not be allowed. In any case, they should
carry out a mini project based on the chosen area in S7 or S8. Students who have registered
for B. Tech Minor in ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING can opt to study the
courses listed below:

HONOURS
Honours is an additional credential a student may earn if she/he opts for the extra 20
credits needed for this in her/his own discipline. Honours is not indicative of class. KTU is
providing this option for academically extra brilliant students to acquire Honours. Honours is
intended for a student to gain expertise/specialise in an area inside his/her major B.Tech
discipline and to enrich knowledge in emerging/advanced areas in the branch of engineering
concerned. It is particularly suited for students aiming to pursue higher studies. Upon
completion of Honours, a student will be better equipped to perform research in her/his
branch of engineering. On successful accumulation of credits at the end of the programme,
this will be mentioned in the Degree Certificate as “Bachelor of Technology in xxx, with
Honours.” The fact will also be reflected in the consolidated grade card, along with the list of
courses taken. If one specified course cannot be earned during the course of the
programme, Honours will not be awarded. The individual course credits earned, however,
will be reflected in the consolidated grade card.
The courses shall be grouped into maximum of 3 groups, each group representing a
particular specialization in the branch. The students shall select only the courses from same
group in all semesters. It means that the specialization is to be fixed by the student and
cannot be changed subsequently. The internal evaluation, examination and grading shall be
exactly as for other mandatory courses. The Honours courses shall be identified by H slot
courses.
(i) The curriculum/syllabus committee/BoS shall prepare syllabus for courses to be
included in the curriculum from fourth to eight semesters for all branches. The
honours courses shall be identified by H slot courses.
(ii) Registration is permitted for Honours at the beginning of fourth semester. Total
credits required is 182 (162 + 20 credits from value added courses).
ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING
(iii) Out of the 20 Credits, 12 credits shall be earned by undergoing a minimum of
three courses listed in the curriculum for honours, of which one course shall be a
mini project based on the chosen area. The remaining 8 credits could be acquired
through 2 MOOCs recommended by the Board of studies and approved by the
Academic Council or through courses listed in the curriculum. The classes for
Honours shall be conducted along with regular classes and no extra time shall be
required for conducting the courses. The students should earn a grade of ‘C’ or
better for all courses under honours.
(iv) There won’t be any supplementary examination for the courses chosen for
honours.
(v) On successful accumulation of credits at the end of the programme, “Bachelor of
Technology in xxx, with Honours” will be awarded if overall CGPA is greater than
or equal to 8.5, earned a grade of ‘C’ or better for all courses chosen for honours
and without any history of ‘F’ Grade.
(vi) The registration for honours program will commence from semester 4 and the all
academic units offering honours in their discipline should prescribe set of such
courses. The courses shall be grouped into maximum of 3 groups, each group
representing a particular specialization in the branch. The students shall select
only the courses from same group in all semesters. It means that the
specialization is to be fixed by the student and cannot be changed subsequently.
In any case, they should carry out a mini project based on the chosen area in S8.
For example: Students who have registered for B.Tech Honours in ELECTRICAL &
ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING can opt to study the courses listed below:
Values and Ethics: Focus on fostering a strong sense of ethical judgment and moral
fortitude.
Creativity: Provide channels to exhibit and develop individual creativity by
expressing themselves through art, craft, music, singing, media, dramatics, and other
creative activities.
