Course syllabus.  

Eligibility:
Candidates successful in the two-year Pre University Course of PU Directorate, Government of Karnataka, from any stream, or the equivalent recognized by the Bangalore University may apply.

Academic Programme:
With Autonomy, the College will have the freedom to determine its own courses of study and syllabi, prescribe rules of admission, evolve methods of evaluation and conduct examinations. The Bangalore University will award the Degrees with the name of the College mentioned in its certificates.

Curricular Programme:
The BBM Course is divided into 6 semesters. Each semester comprises of 18 weeks including the period of preparation for the semester examination. Right through the semester the student will be evaluated on a continuous basis. The Continuous Internal Assessment (CIA) will carry a weightage of 50% of the marks on which the student is evaluated. The End Semester Exam (ESE) constitutes the other 50%. There is an exception in the case of languages where the ratio between the continuous internal assessment and end semester exam is 30:70.

Core Subjects:
In each semester, core subjects are offered with stipulated credits for each paper. A credit is a yardstick to measure the weightage given to a subject. The number of lecture hours per week is indicative of the credits attached to each subject.

In the fifth and sixth semester, students are given a choice of three electives. They may choose to specialise in either Finance, Marketing or Human Resource. Each elective will have four papers, two in the fifth semester and two in the sixth semesters.

All students joining the sixth semester are required to undertake Internship and Project as part of their academic requirement, for which 4 credits are awarded. Internship and Project work enables students to get a practical exposure to the working of the industry. It would also help them to substantiate their classroom learning with practical experience.

A student is required to take up a minimum of 144 credits (including language and foundation courses) in order to qualify for the BBM degree. .............DETAILS

Cumulative Grade Points System of Evaluation:
In keeping with the suggestions of the UGC & NAAC, the College has adopted the Cumulative Grade Point Average System for evaluation and grading. The modalities and operational details of the credit system are follows.

•Papers are marked in the conventional way for 100 marks.
•The Percentage obtained by a student is multiplied by the standard grade to obtain the Product.
•The Total of the Products of all the subjects is divided by the total of all the Grades. This gives the Average Grade Point.
•For the sake of more common understanding the Average Grade Point is then converted into Grades of Outstanding, Excellent, Good, Average and Satisfactory.

The following Grading Table is to be adopted:

Percentage
Grade
Interpretation
Standard Grades
80 and above
O
Outstanding
5
70 to 79
A
Excellent
4
60 to 69
B
Good
3
50 to 59
C

The Cumulative Grade Point Average system permits greater weightage to be given in terms of teaching hours, course content and grades to the core commerce subjects.
