exam, it shall be considered as a failure and shall have to appear again in both theory
and practical exam. Only one more chance shall be given to her/him to re-appear in
the qualifying exam (theory and practical both) after a gap of six months. No further
chance shall be given to the candidates in case of failure in the second attempt / re-
appear chance also.
4. The questions in both the papers of the theory exam shall multiple choice (MCQ) type
and conducted on OMR sheets.

(M.E./M.Tech.) will be posted on AICTE website.
6. The theory papers shall comprise of questions of one mark and two marks.
7. There shall be no negative marking in the theory papers.
8. More emphasis shall be given on comprehensive type, application type and analysis
type questions in both the theory papers.
9. The details of Theory papers are as follows:
Theory Paper I (MCQ Type)

• 40 questions shall be of 2 marks and
• 80 questions of 1 mark each.
Theory Paper II (MCQ Type)
Theory paper II shall comprise of core engineering/technology subjects (120
questions)

Total Questions: 120
Maximum Marks: 160
Core Engineering / Technology subjects.
• 40 questions shall be of 2 marks and
• 80 questions of 1 mark each.
10. The details of practical paper are as follows:
A List of 25 practical relevant to each PG degree programme (M.E./M.Tech.) will
be published and posted on the AICTE website and the candidate has to perform two
practical, which shall be identified on a random basis by the examiner from the list of
25 practical uploaded on the AICTE website for each programme.
Practical Paper
Duration: 4 hours (180 minutes)
Maximum Marks: 100
Exam Pattern: Candidate will have to conduct two practical of 50 marks each. The
distribution of marks in practical exam is as follows:
• Writing process and methodology – 15 marks for each practical
• Showing results of the practical – 25 marks for each practical
• Viva Voce – 10 marks for each practical.
