date. A student who is prone to repeating courses will finish (if he does not drop out)

with a higher C.L.U. than his nonrepeating colleagues, and will most likely require a

longer time to complete requirements for the award of a degree.

iii. Total Credit Point (T.C.R)

This is the sum of the product of course units and rating in each course, for the entire

semester. For example consider a student who took 6 courses of 3 units each, suppose

the grade he/she obtained in the six courses were A,B,C,D,E and F respectively. The

TCP of this students is obtained as unit x grade point i.e. 3x5+3x4+3x3+3x2+3x1

+3x0 15+12+9+6+3+0 45.0

45

iv. Cumulative Grade Point (CGP)

This is summation of Total Credit Point over all semesters from the beginning to date.

v. Grade Point Average (GPA)

This is the Total Credit Point (TCP) divided by the Total Load Units (TLU), for

example, consider the student‘s score referred to in section (iii). his T.C.P. is

45.0 and has T.L.U. of 18 (i.e. 5 course of 3 units each for the semester, his GPA 2

is therefore 45/18 = 2.50. The highest possible GPA that can be earned is 5.0 F and

that is when a student has earned an ―A‖ grade in every course during the semester.

The lowest GPA: obtainable is 0.00, signifying ―F‖ grade all C through.

vi. Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA)

This is not the summation of GPA‘s for all semester, rather it is the summation

of TCP for all the semester to date divided by the summation of TLU for the said ‗

semester. Like the GPA, CGPA‘s obtainable range from 0.00 to 5.00 in effect,

CGPA = CCP /CLU where CCP is Cumulative Credit Point and CLU is the

Cumulative Load Unit.

Final Assessment & Class of Degree

Class CGPA

First Class 4.50- 5.00

2nd Class Upper Division 3.50-4.49

2nd Class Lower Division 2.40 - 3.49

3rd Class Division 1.50- 2.39

Pass 1.00-1.49

vii. Academic Probation

A student whose CGPA at the end of any semester is less than 1.00 shall be placed on

academic probation during subsequent semesters.

viii. Withdrawal from the University

a student who is on academic probation in a semester and fails to achieve a CGPAof

at least 1.00 at the end of that session shall be asked to withdraw from the university.

46

ix. Repetition of Courses

Any course failed by a student must be repeated until passed. A student may repeat

only those courses in which he/she has obtained a grade F. The grade earned for

repeated course shall be recorded and used in the computation of the GPA and CGPA

in the usual way.

2. Requirements for the Award of a Degree

B. TECH TRANSPORT

MANAGEMENT

PROGRAMME PHILOSOPHY

The multifarious problems of the industrial world with the attendant complexities and

the uncertainties of the environment in which transportation scenarios operate require

advanced and pragmatic Management Training Programmes in the field of

Transportation. Consequently, the primary objective of the programme is to assist

would-be transportants in solving the day- to-day transport problems more precisely

and effectively through -the application of modem transport operations techniques.

In addition, the programme is to provide a detailed specific knowledge, conceptual

analytical - and practical problem solving skills in Transport studies. it also exposes.

the students to transport administration planning and other contemporary issues in

Transport Management.

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE DEPARTMENT

The Bachelor of Technology in Transport programme commenced in

2000/2001 session under the then Department of Management Science. In 2009/2010

the department of Management Science metamorphosed into Faculty of Management

Sciences and took off with the two existing programmes: Transport management and

Management and Accounting. Since then as distinct department, - Department of

Transport Management has continuously strive to meet the ever increasing demand of

the transport and allied sectors at the top management levels especially in Aviation,

Maritime, Overland Transport (Land & Rail) and Logistics management.

INTRODUCTION

However, it would be that transport is an engine of growth in any economy and it is a

means to end rather end in itself. Consequently, it is the life wire of any society; hence

there is need for its proper management in order to bring to the awareness of all

stakeholders its relevance and contributory roles to the society in general.

Again, transport needs to be planned, controlled and managed in such a way that

services provided at both private and public sectors of the economy are best quality.

51

In view of this, the relevance of transport management as a career is not in doubt. This

is evidenced as many higher institutions now include transport studies in their

academic curricula. The academic discipline focuses, meeting the needs of private

sectors, public organizations and individual within an organizational or societal

context through the application of tested techniques, skills and technologies relevant

to each undertaking.

B. Tech Transport Management at LAUTECH will avail prospective students of the

following options:

1. Aviation Transport

2. Maritime Transport.

3. Overland (Road or Rail) Transport

4. Logistics Management

The aviation refers to air transport in which movement of goods and passengers takes

place in the air, while maritime transport is the Movement through the sea. The

overland transport includes both road and rail modes transport in which goods and

passengers are transported through road and rail respectively.

On the other hand, the logistics management options cut across other modes of

transport as its functions are peculiar and indispensable. In other words, the

logisticians engage in all activities involved in the movement of goods and passengers

from origin to destination however, all the mode play important. roles in the

development of the nation‘s economy as the function complementarily.

Objectives of the Programme

The objective of the programme is to provide a detailed scientific knowledge,

conceptual, analytical arid practical problem- solving skills in Transport management

and other related Transport management disciplines The programme will expose the

students to Quantitative Techniques in Transport. Marketing of Transport Operation

and services, Logistics and Physical distribution. Transport policy, Accounting and

other management areas requiring analytical decision-making as an integrative

approach to the myriads of Transport Management problems. These includes

planning, analysis, execution and control in Transport environment.

During the period of studentship. students will not only receive lecture inputs but

will also be invited to conduct their own researches, produce their dissertations on

major Transport areas, present their researches through seminars, workshops on the

52

relevant Transport modes and interact with the industries through organized industrial

attachment and Supervised Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES) will be

encouraged.

The course graduates would have acquired the basic technological knowledge and

practical exposure to fit them into Transport careers in both the public and private

sectors of the economy. and also to become capable of being self-employed, and even

be employment creators.

(b) How staffs are involved in the decision-making process and in general

administration

The department holds regular departmental meetings at intervals to take decisions on

issues affecting it. Membership at these meetings includes the Head of‘ Department as

Chairman, all academic staff and administrative staff. On a seasonal basis, officers are

appointed to oversee and coordinate essential aspects of the departmental affairs such

as exams, lecture time tables, students‘ industrial training, accreditation, curriculum

and student affair postgraduate programme etc.

Policy and Practice on Staff Development

The University encourages all members of staff to improve their academic standing.

The academic staff are encouraged to pursue their postgraduate studies

(M.Tech.,M.Sc, PhD) on study leave with pay. The University also gives financial

support when necessary to aid the speedy completion of such programmes. This

actually accounted for (6) departmental academic staff completing their PhD within

four years, that is, 2005-2009. About four (4) academic staff are about completing

their programmes as indicated on their progress reports from their respective

institutions of study.

Similarly the University gives financial support to staff to attend Learned/Professional

Conferences whenever such demands are being made. For instance, two academic

staff went to Mauritius this year for Conference and Annual general meeting of

Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT). Similarly, five of our full time

academic staff are Chartered members while many are in various degree of

completion.

Staff Promotion

The system of Annual Staff Review Exercise adopted by the University allows staff to

be assessed annually for salary increment and promotion. The Departmental Review

Committee forwards its recommendations to the Faculty Review Committee for

Student’s Welfare

(a) Handling of Academic Grievances

There is a standing organizational body of the students known as the Student‘s

Chapter of Association of Transport Management Students which is a subsidiary of

the national body. This body is there to protect students‘ (ATMAS) interest under the

supervision, of their staff adviser who is an academic staff of the department. There

are two ways in which students can channel their academic grievances. These are

either through their staff adviser or through their level advisors who are primarily

academic advisors who must have been with them from their first year up to the point

of graduation. It is these two sets of people that are to keep the Head of Department

informed on the students‘ grievances especially when they cannot handle such

depending on the nature of grievance. The advisors mayor may not forward the

complaint to the Head of Department However, such records and actions taken are

documented for easy reference. Serious cases are referred to the Dean and sometimes

to the Faculty Board Committee on discipline.

Examinations

The lecturers, who are the internal examiners are responsible for setting and marking

of the exam questions. for the courses taught by them. The Head of Department who

is the Chief examiner ensures proper conduct of exams as well s the security and

internal moderation of question papers and marked scripts. External examiners are

also engaged to evaluate and moderate the questions for each exam. After marking

and collation, the results are compiled and grades forall courses offered are sentto the.

Departmental Board of Examiners for consideration. The recommendations of the

Departmental Board are forwarded to the Faculty Board of Examiners. The Faculty

Board further recommends the results to Committee of Deans and finally to the

Senate for final approval.

Academic Atmosphere

In order to maintain an atmosphere conducive for exchange of ideas and interaction

amongst students, the department has on ground. the students‘ Chapter of the

Association of Transport Management students (ATMAS) under the supervision of

the staff adviser who is an academic staff in the department.

87

This association normally organizes excursions to notable Transport firms, Port

Authority, etc. A week is usually allocated to the body in a session to have special

programmes.

PROGRAMME / WORKLOAD BY STUDENTS

The programme workload by students includes periods of formal studies in the

university and Industrial training. This comprises of:

i. 9 semesters of course work consisting of lectures, tutorials, assignments.

ii. 1 Full semester of industrial attachment.

EXAMINATION AND GRADING UNDER THE COURSE UNIT SYSTEM

1. Continuous Assessment

Assessment of student‘s performance shall be continuous. The final examination for

each course shall normally be at the end of the semester in which the course is

offered. The courses grades will add up of the students‘ score in the examination

assessment shall carry a maximum mark of 40%

Assessment

In order to qualify for a course examination, a student shall be required to achieve

75% attendance of all the schedule classes (Lectures and laboratory work) for the

courses.

Absence from Examination

A student who is absent from a course examination without the permission of the head

of department during or at the end of the semester, will receive a grade of F.

Permission may be granted only on compassionate or medical grounds where

evidence are provided by the University Health Services.

Terminologies

(a) The Unit of a course is defined in relation to the semester duration; this is

equivalent to a lecture duration of one hour weekly for one semester of about 15

teaching weeks or three to four hours every week, in the lecture room or laboratory

for one semester of same duration (15 weeks). The size of a course shall, as much as

88

possible, be a maximum of four units and its duration shall be one semester except for

projects and industrial work experience which may carry more than three units.

(b) A core course is one which must be registered for and passed by a student to get a

degree, and is counted towards the classification of his/her degree. An elective course

is either compulsory or optional.

(c) A compulsory elective is one that shall be counted towards the classification of

student‘s degree. An optional elective is a course that may be taken by the student and

may be taken by the student and may not be counted towards the classification of

his/her degree.

For the purpose of determining the class of degree, the CGPA shall cover 100 to 500

level courses for UME students and 200 to 500 for Direct Entry Students.

1. Grading System: A five - point currently adopted as shown.

Mark Range Interpretation Grade Grade Point

70-100% 5 A Excellent

60-69% 4 B Very Good

50-59% 3 C Good

45-49% 2 D Satisfactory

40 -44% 1 Poor but

Passing

0-39% 0 F Failure

2. Computation of Result

The following terminologies and abbreviations are commonly used in the

progressive computation of student‘s results throughout his/her semester four / five

years in the University.

i. Total Loading Units (T .L. U)

This is the total number of course units carried by a student in a particular semester. It

is the summation of the load units on all courses during the semester, for example, a

student who is taking 8 courses of 2 units each has a T.L.U. if 8 x 2=16 for that

semester.

ii. Cumulative Load Unit (C.L. U.)

89

This is the summation of total load units over all the. semester from the beginning to

date. A student who is prone to repeating courses will finish (if he does not drop out)

with a higher C.L.U. than his non-repeating colleagues, and will most likely require a

longer time to complete requirements for the award of a degree.

iii. Total Credit Point (T.C.R)

This is the sum of the product of course units and, rating in ach course, for the entire


the grade he/she obtained in the six courses were A,B,C,D,E and F respectively. The

TCP of this students is obtained as unit x grade point i.e. 3x5+3x4+3x3+3x2+3x1

+3x0 =15+ 12+9+6+3+0= 45.0

iv. Cumulative Grade Point (CGP)

This is summation of Total Credit Point over all semesters from the beginning to date.


This is the Total Credit Point (TCP) divided by the Total Load Units (TLU), for

example, consider the student‘s score referred to in section (iii). his T.C.R is 45.0 and

has T.L.U. of 18 (i.e. 5 course of 3 units each forthe semester, his GPA is therefore

45/18 = 2.50. The highest possible GPA that can be earned is 5.0 and that is when a

student has earned an ―A‖ grade in every course during the semester. The lowest GPA

obtainable is 0.00, signifying ―F‖ grade all through.

vi. Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA)

This is not the summation of GPA‘s for all semester rather it is the summation of TCP

for all the semester to date divided by the summation of TLU forthe said semester.

Like the GPA, CGPA‘s obtainable range from 0.00 to 5.00 in effect, CGPA =

CCP/CLU where CCP is Cumulative Credit Point and CLU is the Cumulative Load

Unit.

Final Assessment & Class of Degree

Class CGPA

First Class 4.50-5.00

2nd Class Upper Division 3.50-4.49

2nd Class Lower Division 2.40 -3.49

3rd Class Division 1.50- 2.39

Pass 1.00-1.49

90

vii. Academic Probation

A student whose CGPA at the end of any semester is less than 1.00 shall be placed on

academic probation during subsequent semesters.

viii. Withdrawal for the University

A student who is on academic probation in a semester and fails to achieve a CGPA of

at least 1.00 at the end of that session shall be asked to withdraw from the university.

ix. Repetition of Courses

Any course failed by a student must be repeated until passed. A student may repeat

only those courses in which he/she has obtained a grade F. The grade earned for

repeated course shall be recorded and used in the computation of the GPA and CGPA

in the usual way.

2. Requirements for the Award of a Degree

For the award of a degree, a candidate must satisfactorily complete, the minimum

number of units prescribed for the degree. He/she must in addition, complete

successfully all compulsory courses as well as the special and free electives for the

degree as prescribed. To be eligible for Bachelor of Technology in Transport

Management, a student must pass a total of at least 234 units. This include:

i. Compulsory Courses Credit Credit

SIWES

ii. Electives

(a) Departmental 06 units

(b) Faculty 04 units

TOTAL 196 units

STUDENTS IN THE DEPARTMENT

Student Academic Advising

Each level of students in the department is attached to academic advisors. Currently,

each advisor handles an average of sixty (60) students that have been assigned to

him/her from their first year up to the point of graduation. This form of arrangement

gives room for thorough supervision of student‘s academic progress and

understanding of each students peculiarities. The major function of the staff advisors

is guidance and counseling. This assists in detecting weak students for early guidance.

Advisors also guide students on their choice of courses for a particular semester to

enhance better performance of such students and also reduce the accompanying

problems on results.

Student Associations

The Department recognizes the importance and activities of professional bodies such

as Chartered institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) and the needs for the students

within the department within the department to register with them for the integration

of academic learning and professionalism.

Mark Range Letter Grade Grade Point Interpretation

% 70 - 100 A 5 Excellent

60 - 69 B 4 Very Good

50 - 59 C 3 Good

45- 4 9 D 2 Satisfactory

40 – 49 E 1 Poor, but pass

0- 39 F 0 0 Failure

9. COMPUTATION OF RESULT

The following terminologies and abbreviations are commonly used in the computation of

students‘ results throughout their four/five years stay in the University.

i. Total Load Units (TLU)

This is the total number of course units carried by a student in a particular semester. It

is the summation of the load units on all courses carried during the semester, for

example, a student who is taking 8 courses of 2 units each has a T.L.U. of 8 X 2 =

16for that semester.

ii. Cumulative Load Units (CLU)

This is the summation of total load units over all the semesters from the beginning to

date. A student who is prone to repeating courses will finish (if he/she does not drop

out) with a higher C.L.U. than his nonrepeating colleagues, and will most likely

require a longer time to complete requirements for the award of a degree.

104

iii Total Credit Point (TCP)

This is the sum of the product of course units and rating in each course, for the entire


the grade he/she obtained in the six courses were A, B, C, D, E and F respectively.

The TCP of this student unit X grade point 3x5+3x4+3x3+3x2+3x1 +3x0= 15+

12+9+6+3+ = 45. 0

iv. Cumulative Grade Point (CGP) This is summation of Total Credit Points L

from the beginning to date.


This is the Total Credit Points (TCP)m divided by the total load unit referred to in

section (iii), T.C.P. is 45.0 and (i.e. 6 courses of 3 units each for the semester, GPA

is therefore 45/18 = 2.50. The highest possible be earned is 5.00 and that is when a

student has earned ―A‖ grade in every course during the semester. The lowest G.P.A.

obtainable is 0.00 signifying "F" grade all through

vi. Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPM This is not the summation of GPAs

for all the. semester of TCP for all the semester by the summation of TLU for the said

semester GPA, the obtainable range for CGPA is from 0. 00 to 5.00 in effect, CGPA =

CCP/CLU , where CCP is CLU is Cumulative Load Credit Point and Cumulative

Load

vii. Final Assessment and Class of Degree

Class CGPA

First Class 4. 50 – 5. 00

Second Class Upper Division 3. 50 – 4. 49

Second Class Lower Division 2. 40 – 3. 49

Third Class Division 1. 50 – 2.39

105

viii. Academic Probation

A student whose CGPA at the end of a semester is less that 1.00 shall be

placed on academic probation at the end of that semester

ix. Withdrawal from the University Due to Poor Academic Performance

Any student who fails to attain a CGPA of at least 1.00 for any two

consecutive semesters shall be advised to withdraw from the University.

x. Repetition of Courses

Any course failed by a student must be repeated until passed. A student may

repeat only those courses in which he/she has obtained a grade of F. The grade

earned for a repeated course shall be recorded and used in the computation of

the GPA and CGPA in the usual way.

l0a. PROCEDURE FOR INVESTIGATING ALLEGED EXAMINATION

MISCONDUCT

i. Whenever a student is caught for any examination the case offence, the case

shall be reported to the Invigilator/supervisor in the Hall immediately

ii. The Invigilator shall fill the necessary form reporting the case of
