66 2.5.8 What are the mechanisms for redressal of grievances with reference to evaluation both at the College and University level? The redressal of grievances regarding evaluation in both internal assessment and university examination is through the following process: Internal Assessment All grievances regarding evaluation, including the internal assessment marks awarded for the students, can be clarified with the concerned faculty. If the grievance cannot be addressed by the course faculty, the student has the option to take it up with the Head of the Department. Discrepancies if any are treated with seriousness and adequately addressed depending on the nature of the problem. End Semester Examination If the grievance is against the end semester examination results, the institution assists the students by helping them to apply for revaluation to the office of the Controller of Examination of the affiliated University through administrative office of the College. Within 10 days of the announcement of the results, students can apply for revaluation. Students can apply for the revaluation within the stipulated period, by depositing the revaluation fee. University authorities get the answer sheets revaluated and then the rectified results of the students is declared. In addition to this, the university makes arrangements for issuing photocopies of their answer scripts to the students. This allows the students to consult competent faculty to ensure fairness of evaluation. 2.6 Student performance and Learning Outcomes Does the College have clearly stated learning outcomes?
