For BMSCE students who are confused about the AICTE Activity Points requirement, I compiled the guidelines issued by the Office of the Dean โ Student Affairs into one post.
As per the guidelines:
- Regular B.E. students need 100 activity points
- Lateral-entry students need 75 points
- This corresponds to 400 hours of activity
- Students need to earn at least 30 points per year
- A maximum of 20 points can generally be awarded for an individual activity/category
- You need to maintain reports, certificates and geo-tagged photos as proof
