4. Conclusion

Institute of Human Resources Development being a Government of Kerala Establishment is keeping its values high to turn Kerala into a knowledge society with a sustainable economic growth. The admission to all the engineering colleges under IHRD is through government allotment. This allows the meritorious students to get admission to our colleges as per the government regulations and fees structure laid down by the directions of Government of Kerala. And also, 50% seats are purely merit seats having lower fees structure. So starting a new P G course in Thermal Engineering under Department of Mechanical Engineering at College of Engineering Adoor will also adds to the concern and commitment of the government to the common people.

(9) Background,

Fisheries and aquaculture, directly or indirectly, play an essential role in the livelihoods of millions of people around the world. In the last three decades, employment in the primary fisheries and aquaculture sector has grown faster than the world's population and employment in traditional agriculture. An estimated 43.5 million people were directly engaged, part time or full time, in primary production of fish either in capture from the wild or in aquaculture, and a further 4 million people were engaged on an occasional basis (2.5 million of these in India).

Trade in fish and fishery products plays an important role in improving food security and contributes to fish products meeting nutritional needs. Fish and fishery products are highly traded with more than 37 percent (live weight equivalent) of total production entering international trade as various foods and feed products. 194 countries reported exports of fish and fishery products, today. World exports of fish and fishery products reached US $85.9 billion. It is expected to cross US $100 billion in 2012.

516 9th FEB. 2016] KERALA GAZETTE 291

Food safety and health risk management should be considered as a core competence in the competitiveness of developing countries, especially in the context of trade in high-value food products. Effective capacities in SPS management are taking on increased importance among the wider set of competitiveness factors, such as stable macroeconomic conditions, suitable climatic conditions, effective logistics, and trade facilitation systems.

There is a huge loss in the supply chain in food industry including fish processing industry as reflected in the figure below. This is mainly due to improper handling, processing, transportation and quality assurance adopted in the seafood business. Trained man power in this sector would considerably able to reduce this loss.

Man power requirement at all levels in this sector is ever increasing and the supply from the higher learning institutions in the world is insufficient to meet the demand especially at the middle level management and top level management. India alone has 425 seafood plants exclusively producing their products for exports. In addition to this there are over thousands of traders involved in international trade of seafood. For developing this sector additional qualified manpower is a must especially when the country is entering into bilateral agreements for expanding trade with other countries. Presently there is a delay in clearing several imported fish items and other food items at the various ports due to lack of qualified manpower to inspect the products according to our import requirements and standards.

The School of Industrial Fisheries, established in 1976 with the prime objective of training students to meet the growing demand for qualified personnel in various facets of fisheries sector, has expertise in the various branches of the fisheries sciences such as aquaculture, fishery biology, capture fisheries, fishing technology, fish processing technology, fisheries economics and fisheries management. The mandate of the School is Manpower Development in applied fisheries, Pursuing Research and Development activities in contemporary and confronting issues on Fishery Sciences.

The school has involved in research and pioneering academic efforts in all emerging areas in fisheries. Food safety is emerging as the need of the hour world over. Food production systems and industries require specifically trained managerial personnel for enforcing stringent quality standards following guidelines offered by the buyer countries. At the same time, they must be well trained to handle difficult business situations and keep the trade front progressing. This is highly imperative for developing a new cadre of managerial technocrats in seafood industry with specializations in food safety and national and international trade. Against this background, the School of Industrial Fisheries proposes this new course on M.F.Sc. (SST).

Seafood Safety and Trade degree graduates can compete for entry-level positions in seafood production, sales, marketing, quality assurance, food safety/Total Quality Management institutions, finance and import/export. These areas, of course, will have an International Business focus and will include duties and responsibilities that expose the employee to pressing global issues. These graduates have the best chances of securing an upper-level management position with a multi-national corporation.

(10) Objectives

To develop manpower specialized in managerial skills demanded by the trade and sea food safety.

To provide training in areas related to sea food business at par with world class institutions.

To extend state of art research opportunities in emerging vistas related to sea food trade, sea food quality assurance and international trade.

(11) Collaborating Institutions/Organisations

In addition to the Parent Department of Cochin University of Science & Technology National Institute of Fisheries Post Harvest Technology and Training ( NIFPHTT) of Ministry of Agriculture, Cochin and Various Seafood Processing and Exporting Factories under the aegis of Seafood Exporters Association will collaborate with this programme especially in the Practical training and Project work of the students.

(12) Faculty Positions additionally required for the proposed course

(These teaching posts may be instituted by the Academic Council as envisaged in Provision 24 (V) of the CUSAT Act 1986 and the qualifications may also be approved).

Infine Piazza San Pietro: è una piazza monumentale, capolavoro di Bernini. Ci sono 284 colonne, che chiudono una grande superficie, come due grandi braccia.

Al centro c'è un obelisco alto 25 metri. Ai lati dell'obelisco ci sono due bellissime fontane.

Sardinia

The local dishes are frequently celebrated through fairs and festivals, which re-enact old traditions and are attended in full force by the villagers, often wearing historical costumes.

Sardinia's animal and plant life is protected by natural parks, reserves and oases. Even in Cagliari's hinterland, one of the most urbanized areas, the conservation of the local habitats is safeguarded by the Parco del Molentargius, which hosts also a large colony of flamingos. The coastline offers plenty of opportunities to enjoy of marine sports, while Sardinia's interior is an ideal choice to engage in open-air activities, like riding, hiking and walking. So, if you want to savour every corner of this island, take your fins as well as a good pair of trekking boots!

Slow Food e Fast Food

Quando sono arrivata in Italia la prima volta mi ha sorpreso che persino gli studenti universitari tro-vavano il tempo a pranzo di cucinarsi la pasta e sedersi per mangiare tutti insieme. Era un compito piuttosto semplice eppure lo svolgevano con estrema cura, preparando addirittura la tavola con to-vaglia e tovaglioli. Alla fine mi hanno insegnato a cucinare la pasta "nel modo giusto": quando ag-giungere il sale, come assaggiarla, quale tipo di pasta si poteva accompagnare a quale tipo di con-dimento. È stata la mia prima lezione di Slow Food all'italiana, e di sicuro non è stata l'ultima.

ll movimento Slow Food è ancora fiorente in Italia, nonostante l'invasione di ristoranti fast food che servono fette di pizza, hot dog e l'onnipresente hamburger con patatine. Ovunque nel paese è anco-ra possibile trovare piatti preparati alla maniera tradizionale sia al ristorante che nelle case.

Marco Polo

Marco Polo deserves our gratitude for providing relevant information about Buddha's life. Thus, for instance, with a mixture of respect and admiration, he concludes his narration on "Sagamoni Bor-can" (Sâkyamuni): "And so when the king's son had thus learned about the dead man and the aged man, he turned back to his palace and said to himself that he would abide no longer in this evil world, but would go in search of Him Who dieth not, and Who had created him. So what did he one night but take his departure from the palace secretly, and betake himself to certain lofty and pathless mountains. And there he did abide, leading a life of great hardship and sanctity, and keeping great abstinence, just as if he had been a Christian. Indeed he would have been a great saint of Our Lord Jesus Christ, so good and pure was the life he led".

Elective Courses

Teachers shall notify the elective courses including elective course on project work/internship proposed by them to be offered in subjects in the beginning of the Academic year. This will facilitate the students to choose the elective courses in advance. In case the teacher offers project work/internship as an elective course the student in addition to the submission of the written work shall have to conduct a seminar based on the final conclusion of the work.

The students shall have the option to substitute the elective courses by equivalent courses from the IUCIPRS or other Departments/Schools/Centres of CUSAT.

The academic calendar for each year giving details of the courses offered in each semester will be notified in the beginning of the year for each batch of students admitted for the PGDIPL Course.

Explanation: Project work/internship:-

(i) A Candidate may opt for preparing a project work/internship carrying 8 credits in the place of elective courses.

(ii) The project work shall be prepared under the guidance of teacher offering the course and internship in placement with a law office, legal division or a corporate office etc. The area of the project work, methodology, pattern of presentation etc. etc., shall be determined by the teacher concerned based on the proposal submitted by the student. The area must invariably have some practical application of the law. The teacher offering the course shall take steps to identify the place of practical work and correspond with the persons. In the case of internship, the student has to do internship in a law firm listed in the panel of law firms identified by the Centre for that purpose and the successful completion of internship will be based on the Certificate from the concerned law firm and evaluation of the work done by the candidate by the Faculty Council based on the report and seminar presentation.

(iii) Generally a teacher may not be allowed to take more than 15 candidates for preparing project work. However the Faculty Council may, if the situation so demands permits a teacher to take more than fifteen students but in no case shall he be permitted to take more than twenty.

(iv) Teachers entrusted with the supervision of the project work shall help the student in identifying, analyzing and presentation of the problem in the project work. Since it is in the place of elective courses, the teacher's input should be equivalent to the work he might otherwise put in teaching two courses having 4 credits each.

(v) The project work may be organized by the Faculty Council depending upon the infrastructural facilities and availability of faculty in every year.

(vi) Only after the supervising teacher approves and signs up the project work the candidate shall be permitted to submit the report and present the seminar.

(vii) The student shall maintain a diary giving the details of the days he attended in the place of internship, details of the work undertaken etc. and must be signed regularly by the person with whom he worked. This shall be submitted along with the written work to the teacher for final approval.

(viii) The approved project work/report of internship shall be submitted to the Centre 15 days before the completion of the II Semester.

4. Examinations:—

(a) The evaluation of all the courses shall be internal by the teacher/s offering the courses.

(b) The evaluation for the core/elective papers other than project work is based on an overall assessment of the performance of the student during the semester. The scheme of evaluation is as follows:

(i) Presentation of class assignment 10 marks

(ii) Participation in the class 10 marks

(iii) Written assignment 10 marks

(iv) Midterm written examination 20 marks

(v) End term written examination 50 marks

(c) The teacher shall publish all the marks within 10 working days of conducting the evaluation and also give copies of all the written papers with the marks awarded on request of students.

(d) For the evaluation of project work/internship the Faculty Council shall identify another teacher who will be evaluating the project work/internship and conduct the seminar for the students along with the teacher offering the course.

(e) The seminar shall be conducted within 30 days after the end of the II semester.

(f) The written work consists of 150 marks and 50 marks for the performance in the seminar. The teachers shall independently evaluate the project work/report of internship and presentation of the seminar and average obtained shall be taken as final grade. The result shall be published within 10 working days after the completion of the seminar.

(g) A candidate who has failed to secure the minimum marks for the project work may submit following the above procedure a new or revised project work before the commencement of the PGDIPL Examination of the next year or the year in which he proposes to sit for the PGDIPL Examination within a period of two years from the year of completion of the course.

Explanation:—

(1) The identification of the topic for preparing project work/internship is done by the candidates in consultation with the teacher but the collection and collation of the material have necessarily to be undertaken by the candidate as per the scheme of his/her programme. The organisation of the material and the orderly discussion with appropriate references and suggestions for improvements are to be done by the candidate himself/herself. The research methodology, generally speaking, is to be determined in consultation with the teacher. The idea is to make him/her capable of writing a paper on any subject having practical importance in his/her professional life.

In view of the above the candidates' performance may be evaluated in the following method:

Total marks allotted to project work/internship : 150

(a) Importance and relevance of the topic : 10

(b) Adequacy of material

: 20

(d) Organization and presentation including language : 20

(e) Suggestions

: 30

(f) Punctuation and footnoting : 20

Total : 150

Though this is generally stated an examiner who is impressed by the general get up of the work may have freedom to make necessary adjustments in marking for the above ingredients. The idea is not at all to restrict the freedom of the examiner. This structuring is resorted to help the examiner decide the quality of the project work/ internship.

(2) The purpose of presentation of the paper is to make sure that the student has done the work undependably.

This is to evaluate the ability of the student to communicate and answer the questions. The idea is to develop the necessary communication skills that are necessary for his/her professional life.

In view of the above the candidates' performance may be evaluated in the following method:

(i) Content of the presentation : 20 marks

(ii) Organization and presentation : 10 marks

(iii) Language and style : 5 marks

(iv) Answering questions : 10 marks

(v) Overall impression : 5 marks540

5. Classification:

The following Grades will be awarded based on the overall performance in each course.

Range of marks Grade Weightage

90% S- Outstanding

80 90 % A- Excellent

70 80 % B-Very Good

60 70 % C-Good

50 60 % D-Satisfactory

50% Failed

Overall performance at the end of the semester will be indicated by Grade Point Average (GPA) calculated as follows:

GICI + G2C2 + G3C3+ …………………….GnCn

GPA = ..........................................................................................................

(b) The Director within two working days shall place the matter before the Faculty Council and the Faculty Council if satisfied by the request of the student shall constitute a committee of three teachers other than the teacher who offered the course to look into the grievance.

(c) The Grievance Committee within seven working days after giving opportunity to the student and the teacher who offered the course shall take a final decision. If the Committee is satisfied with the grievance of the student the Committee shall recommend to the Vice-Chancellor of CUSAT to send the written papers to one of the three experts in the field identified by the Committee from the list of five experts given by teacher who offered the course. In case the teacher fails to give the list the experts shall be identified by the Committee.

(d) In case there is a difference of more than 15% of marks in the evaluation of the expert, the student shall be awarded the marks given by the expert and the results revised accordingly.

7. Revision of Regulations and Curriculum

The University may from time to time revise, amend or change the Regulations, scheme of Examinations and the syllabus.

Explanation:

Course work on IPR

(a) The course work on IPR is organized based on the preparation of the required number of research papers and presentation of seminars with the help of teachers identified for this purpose by the Faculty Council of the Centre.

(b) The Faculty Council shall constitute a committee of two teachers (one as supervising teacher) for every candidate from the third semester.

(c) The candidate shall identify one topic for each course from the tentative list of areas for course work identified in the syllabus and further expanded by the Faculty Council of the Centre from time to time in the beginning of the semester in consultation with the supervising teacher assigned to him by the Faculty Council.

(d) Generally a teacher may not be allowed to supervise more than five candidates for course work. However the Faculty Council may, if the situation so demands, permit a teacher to supervise more than five candidates but in no case shall he/she be permitted to supervise more than eight candidates.

(e) The teachers entrusted with the responsibility of course work shall help the candidate in identifying, analyzing and presenting the problem in the research paper. The teacher's input should be equivalent to the work he might otherwise put in teaching the two courses with 4 credits each and he/she should make sure that the final paper is of publishable quality.

(f) Unless and until the Supervising teacher approves the research paper the candidate shall not be permitted to submit the research paper for evaluation and presentation of a seminar before the Committee appointed by the Faculty Council as per clause (b) above.

(g) The approved research paper shall be submitted to the Centre 15 days before the completion of the Semester and the seminar shall be organized before the end of the Semester.

4. Examinations:—

(1) The evaluation of all the courses other than thesis is internal by the teacher/s offering the courses.

(2) The evaluation for the core/elective papers are based on an overall assessment of the performance of the candidate during the semester. This is as follows:

(i) Presentation of class assignment 10 marks

(ii) Participation in the class

5 marks

(iii) Written assignment

15 marks

(iv) Mid term written examination 30 marks

(v) End term written examination 40 marks

(3) The evaluation of seminar course is based on the participation, presentation and written submission of the candidate on current topics discussed in the weekly seminars organized by the Centre.

(4) The course work consists of 150 marks for written research paper and 50 marks for the seminar presentation. The research paper and the presentation of the seminar shall be evaluated by the Committee members independently and the average shall be taken as the final grade of the candidate for that particular course.

(5) The teacher shall publish all the marks within 10 working days of conducting the evaluation and also provide the copy of the written papers with the marks awarded, if so requested by the candidate within one month of the publication of the result.

Explanation:—

(1) The identification of the topic for writing research paper for course work is done by the candidates in consultation with the supervising teacher. But the collection and collation of the material have necessarily to be undertaken by the candidate as per the scheme of his/her programme. The organisation of the material and the orderly discussion with appropriate references and suggestions for improvements are to be done by the candidate himself/herself. The research methodology, generally speaking, is to be determined in consultation with the supervising teacher. The idea is to make him/her capable of researching and writing a paper on any subject of importance in his/her professional life. In view of the above the candidates' performance may be evaluated in the following method: 544

Total marks allotted to research paper

: 150

(b) Adequacy of material

: 40

(d) Language and style

In view of the above, the candidates' performance may be evaluated in the following method:

Total Marks for the presentation : 50 marks

(i) Content of the presentation : 20 marks

The external experts shall be identified by the Vice Chancellor from the panel of experts submitted by the Director of IUCIPRS in consultation with the Supervising Committee. The candidate shall secure at least a D grade from at least two examiners for the successful completion of the course. In case he fails to get the D grade he shall resubmit the thesis for fresh evaluation after carrying out the suggestions given by the examiners within a maximum period of seven years from the date of commencement of the course.

(2) The Director, within two working days, shall place the matter before the Faculty Council and the Faculty Council, if satisfied by the request of the candidate, shall constitute a Grievance Committee of three teachers other than the teacher/s who offered the course to look into the grievance.

(3) The Grievance Committee, within seven working days, after giving opportunity to the candidate and the teacher/s who offered the course, shall take a final decision.
