This document provides a course plan for the Computer Graphics course offered at the University of Petroleum & Energy Studies during the sixth semester from January 2015 to July 2015. The course aims to provide an overview of the basics of computer graphics and 3D modeling. It will cover topics such as 2D and 3D transformations, curves, hidden surface removal, color models, and shading techniques. Students will implement graphics algorithms and design 2D-3D objects. Their performance will be evaluated through assignments, tests, quizzes, and a semester-end project. Lectures will be supplemented with presentations and examples to aid understanding. Relevant textbooks and online resources have also been suggested.

GUIDELINES
Cell Phones and other Electronic Communication Devices: Cell phones and other electronic
communication devices (such as Blackberries/Laptops) are not permitted in classes during
Tests or the Mid/Final Examination. Such devices MUST be turned off in the class room.
E-Mail and LMS: Each student in the class should have an e-mail id and a pass word to
access the LMS system regularly. Regularly, important information – Date of conducting
class tests, guest lectures, via LMS. The best way to arrange meetings with us or ask specific
questions is by email and prior appointment. All the assignments preferably should be
uploaded on LMS. Various research papers/reference material will be mailed/uploaded on
LMS time to time.
Attendance: Students are required to have minimum attendance of 75% in each subject.
Students with less than said percentage shall NOT be allowed to appear in the end semester
examination.

8. Passing criterion: Student has to secure minimum 30%/40% marks of the “highest marks in
the class scored by a student in that subject (in that class/group class)” individually in both the
‘End-Semester examination’ and ‘Total Marks’ in order to pass in that paper.
 Passing Criterion for B. Tech: minimum 30% of the highest marks in the class
 Passing Criterion for M. Tech: minimum 40% of the highest marks in the class
