For a 1.5 credit laboratory course, one class of 3 hours is held in a week, i.e., 42 hours of total contact hours in 14 weeks. Similarly, a 0.75-credit lab course has one class of 3 hours in alternate weeks, and a 1.0-credit lab course has 28 hours of teaching, each class of 2 hours in 14 weeks.
Mid and Final Examinations: 1 week for midterm and 2 to 3 weeks for final examinations.
Preparatory leave: 9-10 days of preparatory leave will be allocated between the last class date of a semester and the starting date of the final examinations.
