- Minor course offerings:
"Rationale behind set of minor course offerings: minor courses
offered to those outside dept should help them use CS in their field
better. They should offer direct value without requiring them to
take further courses."

- Exchange programs:
"The committee felt that a list of courses mentioning compatibility
with our core courses and contact hours per course be made for
each university to establish equivalence with core courses.
The list of approved courses and equivalent courses will be sent to
academic office.
The student representative will compile this information for
the universities under the MoU with the help of students who have
undergone or are applying for the exchange programs. The list
will be taken up in the next DUGC meeting for approval."

- Evaluation of BTP
"The DUGC recommends that a guide and examiner constitute a panel for
the conduct of the examination; both first and second stages.

- Evaluation of R&D project
"The evaluation of the R&D project is upto the guide. It is possible
that part of same topic may be done as an R&D project and also as
BTP. It is upto the guide to ensure that an adequate quantum of work
is done to justify the credits. A separate report is required for
the R&D project."

- Lab course evaluation (feedback) form
"DUGC went through the two forms (Theory course evaluation form
and Form-C for lab course evaluation) and decided that:"
"For the "CS296: Software Systems Lab" (1-3-0-8) and "CS308:
Embedded Systems Lab" (0-0-4-4) labs, since there were
significant classroom components, the theory form was more
appropriate."
"For the other lab courses, all of which were associated with a
parallel theory course, Form-C for lab course evaluation (along
with the instructor component) was more appropriate."
[2014-06-09 DUGC]
- CS296 feedback form
"DUGC decided that the course evaluation has to be done, and that we will use the same form as for theory courses."
[2014-03-10 DUGC]

The last date to confirm BTP pairings is the last date of
registration. Faculty advisor will not approve registration
for BTP if the pairing is not confirmed."

a decision."

allowed, etc.). These eligibility constraints are to be filled
in by the course instrcutor and approved by DUGC (likewise DPGC
