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. if 8 X2 =
l6forthat semester.
ii. Cumulative Load Unit(C.L.U)
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 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
44
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.
45
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.
50
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
51
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
85
GRADUATE ASSISTANT
Committee forwards its recommendations to the Faculty Review Committee for
discussions and. onward transmission to the University Appointment and Promotion
Committee for final approval.
This system enables the Faculty to monitor staff progress annually and for the
departmental review committee to provide the advice as at when due.
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.
86
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.
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.
87
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
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
88
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.)
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
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
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.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
89
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 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
(a) University Requirement
Basic Sciences 35 units
General Studies
(Other than those mentioned above)
12 units
Computer Studies
90
(b) Faculty/Department requirements 132 units
(c) Industrial Training Programmes
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.

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 non- repeating colleagues, and will most likely
require a longer time to complete requirements for the award of a degree.
103
iii Total Credit Point (TCP)
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 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.
v. Grade Point Average (GPA)
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
