How grades are determined
Each theory course is assessed through class attendance (10%), class tests and quizzes (15%), a mid-semester examination (25%), and the semester-final examination (50%). Students must maintain at least 85% attendance in each course to sit the semester-final examination; the Vice-Chancellor may condone up to 10% of the requirement on the Head of Department's recommendation.

GPA and CGPA calculation
Grade Point Average (GPA) is the credit-weighted average of the grade points earned in a semester: total grade points secured divided by total credit hours taken. A student passes a semester only after passing every course in it, with a minimum semester GPA of 2.00 for undergraduate programmes. Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is the same calculation carried across all completed semesters.

Referred examinations and repeated semesters
A student failing no more than two theoretical courses may sit a Referred Examination covering the full syllabus, with the resulting grade capped at a maximum of B regardless of the mark achieved. A student failing three or more theoretical subjects (or referred subjects) may be provisionally promoted to the next semester with a reduced course load, as decided by the Head of Department. Admission is cancelled after two consecutive semester failures.

Degree award requirements
A Certificate, Diploma, Higher Diploma, Bachelor, or Master degree is awarded once a student passes the prescribed subjects of all semesters and completes any required industrial attachment, special assignments, practical training, and remedial courses, subject to approval by the Academic Council.

Class of degree and gold medals
Graduates with a Cumulative GPA of 3.75 or above are placed in the First Class with Honours; 3.00 or above in the First Class; other successful candidates are placed in the Second Class (classes are not awarded for the Master of Technical Education). The department-wise IUT Gold Medal requires a CGPA of at least 3.80 out of 4.00; the university-wide OIC Gold Medal requires at least 3.90 out of 4.00 and the top rank among all successful students of every department.

Frequently asked questions
Can I save my semesters and track my CGPA at IUT?
How do I convert SGPA to CGPA at IUT?
Can I add past semester GPAs without entering every course?
Is my CGPA tracker data sent to your servers?
Is this Islamic University of Technology (IUT) GPA calculator free?
Does this scale apply to IUT's postgraduate programmes?
No. IUT's postgraduate (M.Sc./M.Engg.) programmes use a separate, university-approved grading scale that differs from the undergraduate table used here: postgraduate grading has no D grade, C equals 2.00 grade points instead of 2.25, and F applies below 45% instead of below 40%. This calculator uses the undergraduate scale, which governs all undergraduate Engineering and Technical Education programmes.
