Pune University: Job Opportunities For Final Year Students In Jeopardy As Practical Marks Not Updated In Results

Pune University: Job Opportunities For Final Year Students In Jeopardy As Practical Marks Not Updated In Results

Pune university SPPU

Pune, May 24, 2021: Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU) had started giving results of the first-semester examination of the final year, but due to the Coronavirus disease (COVID19) pandemic, the university could not get the marks of practical examination. Therefore, the Practical Column of the mark sheet is marked as Not Available (NA). This has jeopardized the job opportunities of many final-year students.


As Pune University has a credit pattern, it relies upon internal evaluation and practical marks. So the colleges asked the students to complete various projects online. It was affirmed that the performance of the students would be taken into account in the results of the first semester (second last semester of the course) of the final year. Accordingly, the students completed these projects and had sent them to the colleges.

 

The University of Pune had started conducting online examinations for the first semester in April. However, when the results were declared online, the practical column of the mark sheet stated NA, which has now started affecting the final year students. The students in courses like engineering, pharmacy, and architecture, are trying to apply for placements; the practical column is yet to be updated. It is believed that the practical marks will appear only after the final semester examinations are conducted by the university.

 

A pharmacy student said, “What needs to be addressed is the fact that while applying for a job, you are required to upload the latest marks sheet, but many students, including me, are afraid of losing jobs due to the ‘NA’ on the marks sheet.”
 

“Even after the college accepted projects from us as practicals, the scorecard still has ‘NA’ written in it. This will lead to more difficulties for us to get a job. We can’t do anything without getting a mark sheet”, said a final year engineering student.
 

Dr Mahesh Kakade, Director of SPPU’s Board of Examinations and Evaluation, has informed that the result will be updated as soon as the practical marks are available.
