Option for final year students with backlogs.

[Mukund Madhav]

Hey

If you have a backlog which you are not able to complete because a course is not running this sem, you can take that course as a guided study course. For this, you will need to talk to the course instructor, who will have to set some exams (Evaluation scheme should have 50% in­sem. and 50% end­sem. In­-sem may contain quizzes, assignments, and 2-­hour mid­way exam). You also need to talk to your faculty advisor probably, and you will finally need to get approval from dean ap/acad office. It will be good if you can talk to all these people before the week is out, so that there is as little pain in registration as possible. For more details and specific requirements you can ask someone in the dean AP office.

It seems self study courses can only be done in the last summer. The link to the UG rulebook is here - http://www.iitb.ac.in/academic/rules/newugrules.html
