ATTENDANCE:
The importance of attendance has been highlighted in several communications. Students find themselves
debarred from various exams and invite other penalties if they are not careful about the attendance. It must
be pointed out that the attendance is given only if the student is physically present in the class room.
Absence from the Class Room on any account (on leave, on medical ground, on working with /
participating in the functions etc.) would mean loss of attendance. Students are advised in their
own interest to ensure that they must aim for 100% attendance, but in any case the attendance
should not below 75%.
Shortage of attendance debars the student from appearing for the exam and thereby affects the overall
academic performance of the student.

It is therefore imperative that, students come to campus on the scheduled date(s), attend classes as
per the Academic Calendar and not miss/bunk classes.
2. DISCIPLINE:
2.1 UPES has prescribed a dress code for all students. It is expected that student observe
this dress code from the very first day they come to the campus. It is expected that the
students present themselves in their best to faculty/visitors when they are in the
campus. Student may note that no leniency will be shown in allowing them to
enter the campus unless they are in the proper dress code. The loss of attendance
and the resulting loss of academic learning would obviously be the penalty students
attract and therefore students are advised in their own interest to observe dress
code.
2.2 Acts of Indiscipline (within and outside the campus): It is expected that students
conduct themselves in a manner that is appropriate and not attract any disciplinary
action for misconduct. We expect our students to be valuable citizens of the
country and hence they are required to be disciplined in and outside the campus.
Driving Motorbikes at high speeds and without proper safety guards, helmets etc.
indulging in horse play, bunking classes, not being respectful to faculty, staff and fellow
students, indulging in ragging and harassment of fellow students and juniors, defacing
the walls or destroying books, laboratory equipments, IT systems and other property in
the campus; indulging or conniving in thefts and any other act will lead to severe
disciplinary action and must be avoided at all costs. There have been serious accidents
involving our students on motorbikes. Students are advised to avoid driving motorbikes
and take extra careful in case they do indeed drive them. We will be constrained to the
use of 2 wheelers / bikes by students who do not take all safety measures or driving
rash, when brought to our notice.
2.3 Student`s conflicts / clashes: Students are advised to take special care to avoid
getting involved in any kind of violence and devote their energies towards their
academic performance and overall development. Any involvement with group
indiscipline could make a student liable for severe penalty including rustication /
expulsion.
I have highlighted the above points only to bring home to our students the seriousness
which these issues deserve. There are, invariably, spates of representation pleadings
and requests whenever students find himself / themselves debarred from exam or any
other penal action been taken by Disciplinary Committee. All this would not be
necessary if students take care to avoid getting involved in such incidences. I hope
students will take note the advice given in this letter and ensure that their conduct is in
full conformity with the requirements spelt out in Student Bulletin and various notices
from time to time.
I am confident that all students would put their best foot forward and ensure they focus
on academic and extra curricular activities so that they emerge from this University with
flying colors and prove themselves to be the worthy citizens of this country and the
globe.
Looking forward to welcoming all students for the forth coming new semester and
wishing that all have a very fruitful academic term
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,
