About Library and Information Science Honours CGPA Calculation

Library and Information Science Honours at National University is a four-year program that trains students in the principles and practices of library management, classification and cataloguing, information technology, database design, records and archives management, and modern information systems. The curriculum includes practical training in classification, cataloguing, and computer applications in libraries. GPA and CGPA follow the official NU grading system, with the standard 4-point scale applied to all papers. Students complete 120 total credits, including practical papers and a viva-voce examination in the final year.

How This Library and Information Science CGPA Calculator Works

The calculator converts each selected letter grade into the official NU grade point, multiplies it by the subject credit, and divides the total weighted points by total counted credits.

Library and Information Science subjects, optional groups, practical papers, compulsory papers, and non-CGPA subjects are loaded from the department data below so the calculation matches the year-wise structure of the program.

Frequently Asked Questions

NU CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) measures overall academic performance across all years of an Honours program. Each subject earns a grade point (0.00–4.00) which is multiplied by its credit hours. The CGPA is the sum of all weighted grade points divided by the total credit hours (128 for Honours).
National University Bangladesh uses a 4.00 grading scale: A+ (80–100%) = 4.00, A (75–79%) = 3.75, A- (70–74%) = 3.50, B+ (65–69%) = 3.25, B (60–64%) = 3.00, B- (55–59%) = 2.75, C+ (50–54%) = 2.50, C (45–49%) = 2.25, D (40–44%) = 2.00, F (below 40%) = 0.00.
The 4-year Honours program requires 128 total credits: First Year 28 credits, Second Year 28 credits, Third Year 32 credits, and Fourth Year 40 credits. Theory subjects carry 4 credits each, practicals carry 2 credits, and the Fourth Year includes a viva-voce (4 credits). Note that some departments may have a different total credit structure (e.g., Botany 136, Economics 120).
No. English (Second Year) is a non-credit compulsory subject. It does not count toward total credits or CGPA, but you must pass it to complete the program. The calculator marks non-CGPA subjects clearly and includes them only in the passed-subject count.
A failed subject (F, below 40%) earns 0.00 grade points. Its credit hours still count in total credits, which lowers your GPA. Improvement rules depend on current National University regulations; consult the latest official examination notices for retake and transcript policies.
Classification is determined by final CGPA: First Class (3.00–4.00), Second Class (2.25–2.99), Third Class (2.00–2.24). A CGPA below 2.00 does not meet the minimum requirement for graduation.
Some departments require choosing optional subject groups. For example, Zoology First Year chooses one group (Chemistry or Biochemistry) and Second Year chooses any two. Physics First and Second Years choose one group (Chemistry or Statistics). The calculator prompts you to select before showing the subject list.
Yes. Enter actual grades for completed years and estimated grades for remaining years. The calculator will project your final CGPA and show what classification you would achieve.
It follows the official NU grading scale and weighted credit formula: Σ(Grade Point × Credit) / Σ(Credit). Verify with your college for any institution-specific variations.
Yes. Higher-credit subjects have a greater impact on CGPA. A 4-credit theory subject counts twice as much as a 2-credit practical. The calculator applies the correct weighted averaging.
Select your department, choose the academic year, pick optional groups if applicable, enter your grades for each subject, and click Calculate. Check "Overall CGPA" to calculate across all years at once.
Yes, the fourth year includes three practical papers: Organization of Knowledge (Classification Practical, 3 credits), Organization of Knowledge (Cataloguing Practical, 3 credits), and Computer Applications in Libraries (Practical, 2 credits). These provide hands-on experience with real library systems.
IT is integrated throughout the program. First-year includes Introduction to Computer and Communication Technologies. Second and third years cover Database Design and Application, Automation of Library and Information Centres, and Information Networking. Fourth year includes Computer Applications in Libraries (Practical) and New Technologies in Information Systems.
Graduates can work as librarians in universities, colleges, schools, public libraries, and special libraries. Career paths also include information management in NGOs, government archives, documentation centres, IT companies, and research organisations. The digital skills component opens opportunities in database management and information systems.
