How is marks distribution in 8th semester engineering in vtu?
According to one of my friends at Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU), the total marks in the eighth semester of engineering are 750. There are a total of 6 subjects.
The distribution is as follows:
- There are 4 subjects whose theory carries 100 marks in the external examination and 25 in the internal examination.
- After this, there is a seminar that is marked out of 50 and it is internally evaluated.
- The most important is Project work, as it carries the maximum marks of 200.
- The marks are then divided equally into internal and external examinations.

What is the process of converting a percentage to a CGPA at VTU Belgaum?
One of my friends studied at VTU Belgaum. According to him, they follow a CBCS, which is a Choice Based Credit System wherein students have the choice of selecting their subjects/courses based on their interests- core, elective, and foundations.
- CGPA is a measure of the whole cumulative performance of a student for all of the semesters.
- It is the ratio of total credit points earned by a student and the sum of total credits of all courses in all the semesters.
- The process of converting percentage to CGPA is very easy. You just have to divide your percentage by 9.5 that will give you the CGPA.
- For example - If you have 73% then 73/9.5 = 7.6 CGPA
- And if you have CGPA and wish to convert it to percentage then just multiply your CGPA by 9.5.
The last semester is different from all the others because it has project work and internship as well that get graded. Therefore, this is how you will be able to convert a percentage to the CGPA.
What is the difference between VTU and autonomous?
Having read some reviews online, I can say that there is not much difference in the colleges but the approaches to studies or academics, placements, etc. vary to a great extent.
- The syllabus in autonomous is designed in a way that keeps students in the centre and the methods get revised once every two years.
- But in VTU, it gets revised only once every 5 years. It is not student-centered but exam-centered.
- From an exam perspective, there are differences also. Autonomously, the question paper is set by the professor or an expert and is assessed internally too.
- But in VTU, the paper is set by a field expert and the evaluation takes place by exchanging mark sheets regionally.
- Sometimes, it is easy for autonomous students to score because the questions are set by their own professor and it is not the case with VTU students.
Now, when coming to the certification level, your degree certificate will have the name of your autonomous college that comes under VTU as it will be issued by VTU. But the college will not be mentioned if your degree is from VTU.
You need to be aware of the differences between the two in the aspects like faculty, facilities, and placements. In the end, these 3 are the most important things that depict the status of an institute.
