course in order to fulfill the 24 credit hours course work requirement.

12. Improvement of Cumulative GPA. If the Cum GPA of a student is less than

3.00 at the end of the course work, he/she may repeat the course work only in which


27/53

he/she has received the grade point average less than 3.00 but greater than or equal to

2.00 in order to improve his/her GPA. The candidate shall apply to the HOD for

permission to repeat a course. The case shall be presented before Faculty Board of

Studies meeting held on regular basis, which may permit a student to repeat a course

subject to its offering and availability of necessary resources. The student shall have to

repeat the course within the time limit given by Faculty Board of Studies. A student shall

be allowed to repeat a maximum of 2 courses for MS during his entire course work

apart from clearance of F grade, if any.

13. Temporary Suspension. Temporary suspension up to one year from course

work is allowed to students facing acute domestic problems/valid reasons subject to

approval of HQ NUST on the positive recommendations of College/Institution/Centre

Faculty Board of Studies. During suspension period the student shall be required to pay

10% of tuition fee for each suspended semester to continue his registration with NUST.

In case the student uses the institutional facilities (such as library, laboratories, help

from faculty etc) of the College/Institute/ Centre he/she shall be required to pay 50% of

tuition fee during the suspension period.

d. Control Systems (Option IV). Control Systems Engineering is the

foundation of modern industrial development. This sequence builds astrong base in systems engineering and links it to the control systems

theory of linear and non-linear systems. A heavy dose of abstract linear

algebra and control theory enables the students to handle systems in

domains of their interest and become good researchers. The continuous-

time control theory is also extended to discrete-time to enable the

development of modern computer-based control systems. The options


34/53

give a strong dose of the more modern and sophisticated adaptive,

optimal, robust, neuro-fuzzy and learning control concepts etc.
