PREFACE

Notre Dame University Bangladesh (NDUB) offers undergraduate and graduate programs in
the Department of Law. This syllabus is for undergraduate students in the Department of Law
of NDUB. Although this syllabus has been written mainly for the students, student advisers
and teachers will find it valuable as a reference document. Also, anybody who desires to
know about the course contents of the Law Department will find this book helpful.

This syllabus provides the vision and mission of NDUB and the vision and mission of the Law
department. Different aspects of the course system, such as rules and regulations relating to
the grading system, and requirements for degrees have been elaborated. It describes the
course requirements and course rationale, course learning outcomes (CLO), course contents,
and mapping of CLO with Program learning outcome (PLO), Teaching Learning Strategies
(TLS), and Teaching Assessment Strategies (TAS) of each course and courses offered in
different semesters.

The fields of Law are changing rapidly. So the departmental and non-departmental courses
for Law students have been revised to cater together for recent advancements in these fields.
The introduction of a basic course on Legal systems for a gentle introduction of the field to
the newcomers is among the worth mentionable changes. The total credit hour is increased to
adjust for some General Education Courses. This syllabus is designed according to the OBE
(Outcome Based Education) approach for conducting courses.

Some of the information recorded in this syllabus is likely to be modified from time to time. It
is hoped that everyone involved would find this syllabus to be very useful.

4.2 Grades: Each course has a certain number of credits, which describe its corresponding
weights. A Letter Grade with a specified number of Grade Points is awarded in each course
for which a student is registered. Marks earned by the students in Class Tests, Quizzes,
Assignments, Participation, Attendance, Midterm Exam, Final Exam, Projects, Term Papers,
Presentation/Viva Voce, etc. are to be cumulated and the total is to be graded.

A student's performance is measured by the number of credits that s/he has completed
satisfactorily, and the weighted average of the Grade Point is required to be maintained for
satisfactory progress. Grade A+ will be considered as outstanding; Grade A will be
considered as excellent performance, Grade A- will be considered as very good performance;
Grade B+ will be considered as a good performance; Grade B will be considered as
satisfactory performance; Grade B- will be considered as a fair performance; Grade C+ will
be considered as an average performance; Grade C will be considered as below average
performance; Grade D will be considered as minimally acceptable performance, i.e. pass
mark; Grade F will be considered as unacceptable performance, i.e. fail; Grade I will be
considered as Incomplete; and Grade W will be considered as withdrawn.

4.3 Grade Point Average (GPA) and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA)
Grade Point Average (GPA) is the weighted average of Grade Points obtained in all the
courses passed/completed by a student. For example, if a student has passed/completed five
courses in a semester having credits of C1, C2,C3,C4 and C5, and his/her points in these
courses are G1, G2, G3,G4 and G5 respectively then,

GPA = ∑

A NUMERICAL EXAMPLE

If a student completes four courses in a semester and obtained the following grades:

COURSE CREDIT GRADE GRADE POINT


LAW- 3 A 3.75
LAW- 3 A+ 4.00
LAW- 3 A 3.75
LAW- 3 A 3.75

His/her GPA for the semester will be computed as follows:

3 × 3.75 + 3 × 4.00 + 3 × 3.75 + 3 × 3.75


𝐺𝑃𝐴 = = 3.81
(3 + 3 + 3 + 3)

On the other hand, Cumulative GPA (CGPA) will be computed as follows:

𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑔𝑟𝑎𝑑𝑒 𝑝𝑜𝑖𝑛𝑡 𝑠𝑒𝑐𝑢𝑟𝑒𝑑 𝑖𝑛 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠𝑒𝑠


CGPA=
𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝑐𝑟𝑒𝑑𝑖𝑡𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠𝑒𝑠 𝑡𝑎𝑘𝑒𝑛

4.4 Course Withdrawal:


Students will have no options to add or drop courses from his/her registration list.
Departments will decide how many courses will be offered in which semester of the
academic year. They will allocate the courses of the whole syllabus in such a way that
students may begin with comparatively easier to rather tough ones.

4.5 Incomplete (I) courses


No student should be absent from continuous assessments during the semester. For, such
absences will naturally lead to reduction in points/marks, which count toward the final grade.
A student who has been absent for a short period, up to a maximum of three weeks for a
valid reason, should approach the Course teacher(s) or Course coordinator(s) for a make-up
of Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) and midterm examination immediately on returning

to classes, and such requests should be supported by verifiable evidence. As per policy of this
university, a student can request the Course teacher(s) or Course coordinator(s) before the
final exam for an incomplete or “I” grade for genuine reasons. The course teacher may
consider this request and give an “I” grade if the student has reasonable marks (as per the
department’s policy) in the continuous assessment part and midterm examination. The
concerned student can sit for a makeup final exam in the following semester and get a
legitimate grade. Other marks will be taken from the previous semester and the final grade
will also replace the “I” grade in the previous semester. The system will turn the “I” grade to
“F” grade in the next semester. In the final transcript, there will be no “I” grade.

4.6 Retake
Student who gets “F” grade in the semester final exam, must retake the course. In that case
the student will communicate with the Registrar’s office immediately after getting results so
that the office can make proper arrangements for him/her. A student will be able to register
any course from his/her curriculum as many times (within the stipulated time of six years) as
he/she wishes and from the 2nd registration it will be coined as retake. For every registration
the student will get a grade. During calculating CGPA the best grade of a course will be
counted. An “F” or “I” grade will turn to "R" grade if the course is retaken but other letter
grades will remain the same. During calculating TGPA in the final transcript “R” grade will
count as a neutral grade. For granting waiver based on semester results the originally
obtained grades will be considered. In case of backlog courses (students who could not
complete the required course/s on due time and the said courses are not currently offered),
there will be special arrangements to help the said student/s to complete their degree.

4.7 Grade Improvement


All such students can make up for deficiencies in GPA and credit requirements by
completing courses in the next semester(s) with better grades which should not be more than
65-69% (in letter Grade B+). For every registration the student will get a grade. During
calculating CGPA the best grade of a course will be counted. For granting waiver based on
semester results the originally obtained grades will be considered. Students will not be
allowed to apply for a grade improvement in a certain course which was previously retaken.

4.8 Dropout
i. Dropout is a situation where a student does not wish to continue his/her study at the
university and leaves before obtaining a formal degree. This is a special situation
where the student has the discretion to decide whether to continue his/her study at this
university.

ii. In case a student decides to drop a semester or multiple semesters for valid reasons
and wants to resume his/her study, s/he can enroll for the said semester/s with a
different batch. S/he may apply to the Chair of the Department for total withdrawal
from the semester at any time. The Head will then bring it to the notice of the
Registrar's office to finalize the process.
