SYLLABUS RELATING TO THE
M.Sc in Sustainable Development and Environment Management
New course w.e.f. the academic year 2017 -2018.
PREAMBLE
Managing sustainability is one of the most challenging and rapidly growing areas in both
the public and private sectors. Securing economic development, social equity and justice,
and environmental protection is the goal of sustainable development.
Sustainable development encourages us to conserve and enhance our resource base, by
gradually changing the ways in which we develop and make use of sound and sustainable
technologies.
Rapid industrialization coupled with uncontrolled exploitation of natural resources has
affected environment, by ultimate changes in the natural cycle, causing impact and/or
effects on air, water, land, flora, fauna, human settlement and health of people. Industrial
development, besides economic growth, brings along with it many environmental
problems.
Environmental Management is the process of controlling any potential negative impact on
the external environment from the human activities in general and industrial activities in
particular.
Though industrialization is an integral part of India's progressive economy qualified
trained professionals in the field are scarce to find. There is a strong need for professional
adept at providing solutions/ expertise in the fields of Sustainable Development And
Environment Management in the context of globalization and India’s progressive economy.
The course is thus designed to fill up these gaps by imparting the knowledge in the
field of Sustainable Development And Environment Management to those interested
to make their rewarding career in this field.

Objectives:
• To inculcate the knowledge base on sustainable development with a view to balance
our economic, environmental and social needs, allowing prosperity for now and
future generations. To train students to undertake major initiatives in the efficient
management of natural resources and the prevention of environmental pollution
with focus on Sustainable Development.
• To equip individuals to solve problems of environmental pollution and
environmental degradation through before end of pipe (BEOP) interventions, over
and above the use of conventional way of end -of-pipe (EOP) interventions.
• To promote understanding of efforts that can be made at the Industry and
Government level to improve th e environment, the economy and the quality of life
of biotic and abiotic communities.
• To use environmental management tools that help to improve the quality of
environment, to assess local vulnerabilities with respect to climate, natural disasters and to achieve sustainable developmental needs.

PASSING STANDARD AND PERFORMANCE GRADING:
MARKS GRADE POINTS
GRADE
75 TO 100 7.5 TO 10.0 O
65 TO 74 6.5 TO 7.49 A
60 TO 64 6.0 TO 6.49 B

50 TO 54 5.0 TO 5.49 D
0 TO 49 0.0 TO 4.99 F (FAILS)
The performance grading shall be based on the aggregate performance of Internal Assessment and Semester End Examination.
The Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) will be calculated in the following manner:
SGPA = ∑CG / ∑ C for a semester, where C is Credit Point and G is Grade Point for the
Course/ Subject.
The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) will be calculated in the fol lowing manner :
CGPA = ∑CG / ∑ C for all semesters taken together.
R. __________ PASSING STANDARD FOR ALL COURSES :
Passing 50% in each subject /Course combined Progressive Evaluation (PE)/Internal
Evaluation and Semester -End/Final Evaluation (FE) examin ation taken together. i.e.
(Internal plus External Examination)
R. __________
A. Carry forward of marks in case of learner who fails in the Internal Assessments and/ or Semester -end examination in one or more subjects (whichever component the
learner has failed although passing is on total marks).
B. A learner who PASSES in the Internal Examination but FAILS in the Semester -end
Examination of the Course shall reappear for the Semester -End Examination of that
Course. However his/her marks of internal examinations shall be carried over and
he/she shall be entitled for grade obtained by him/her on passing.
C. A learner who PASSES in the Semester -end Examination but FAILS in the Internal
Assessment of the course shall reappear for the Internal Examination of that Cou rse.

R. __________ ALLOWED TO KEEP TERMS (ATKT)
A. A learner shall be allowed to keep term for Semester II irrespective of number of
heads/courses of failure in the Semester I.

he/she passes each of Semester I and Semester II .
OR
C. A learner shall be allowed to keep term for Semester III wherever applicable irrespective of number of heads/courses of failure in the Semester I & Semester II.
