Overview
IIEE uses a letter-grade system with grade points. Your semester GPA is the credit-weighted average of your course grade points; your CGPA carries that average across all completed semesters.
The official scale is reproduced below. Use it to understand your transcript, not to calculate an official result yourself — the institute’s records are authoritative.

The image above is the institute’s published grading scale. If the scale is revised, the official notice and your transcript prevail.
How GPA is calculated
Semester GPA = the sum of (course credit hours × grade points) divided by the total credit hours for that semester.
CGPA = the same calculation across all completed semesters, using the cumulative credit hours and grade points.
A course with more credit hours has a larger effect on the average. A laboratory course may carry fewer credits than its theory course, but it still counts.
What affects your record
- The grade earned in each course, including laboratories and projects.
- Repeated or improved courses, according to the semester regulations.
- Withdrawals and incomplete grades, where the regulations allow them.
- The credit hours attached to each course in your batch’s scheme.
- Any official correction issued by the Examinations Office.
Where to check
Use your official transcript or the institute’s result record for a definitive GPA or CGPA. If a grade looks wrong, contact the Examinations Office before the review deadline rather than recalculating it yourself.
