About Sir Syed University of Engineering and Technology
Sir Syed University of Engineering and Technology (SSUET) is a private university established in 1994 in Karachi, Sindh, under the patronage of Sir Syed Trust. The university is named after Sir Syed Ahmad Khan (1817–1898) — the Muslim reformer, educationist, and founder of Muhammadan Anglo-Oriental College (which later became Aligarh Muslim University) — whose legacy of promoting modern scientific education for Muslims continues through SSUET's engineering-focused mission.
SSUET is fully HEC-chartered and follows the HEC 4.0 grading scale and semester system across all programmes. As a PEC-accredited engineering university, SSUET BE degree holders are eligible to register with the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) upon graduation, a mandatory requirement for professional engineering practice in Pakistan. The university focuses primarily on engineering and technology disciplines, with additional programmes in computing and business.
Located in Karachi's University Road area, SSUET serves students from across Karachi and interior Sindh, and is one of the oldest private engineering universities in Pakistan.
SSUET Grading Scale (Official 10-Grade System)
SSUET follows the HEC-mandated 10-grade 4.0 scale applied across all HEC-chartered universities in Pakistan:
| Grade | Grade Points | Percentage | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| A+ / A | 4.00 | 85–100% | Excellent / Outstanding |
| A- | 3.67 | 80–84% | Very Good |
| B+ | 3.33 | 75–79% | Good |
| B | 3.00 | 70–74% | Above Average |
| B- | 2.67 | 65–69% | Average |
| C+ | 2.33 | 60–64% | Below Average |
| C | 2.00 | 55–59% | Satisfactory |
| C- | 1.67 | 50–54% | Pass |
| D | 1.00 | 45–49% | Minimum Pass |
| F | 0.00 | Below 45% | Fail |
Grade D (45–49%, 1.00 point) is the minimum passing grade. An F must be retaken; the credit does not count toward degree completion until passed. BE engineering students must also meet PEC graduation requirements.
How to Calculate Your SSUET GPA
Semester GPA at SSUET is a credit-weighted average of all courses enrolled that semester:
- Find the grade point for each course from the grading table above.
- Multiply each grade point by that course's credit hours to get Quality Points.
- Sum all Quality Points for the semester.
- Divide by total credit hours enrolled that semester.
Formula: GPA = Σ(Grade Points × Credit Hours) ÷ Σ(Credit Hours)
Example (BE Computer Engineering Sem 1): Programming Fundamentals (3 cr, A = 4.00) + Applied Physics (3 cr, B+ = 3.33) + Calculus (3 cr, A- = 3.67) + English (2 cr, A = 4.00) + Pak Studies (2 cr, B = 3.00): QP = 12.00 + 9.99 + 11.01 + 8.00 + 6.00 = 47.00. Credits = 13. GPA = 3.62.
How to Calculate Your SSUET CGPA
CGPA aggregates your academic performance across all completed semesters at SSUET:
CGPA Formula: CGPA = Total Quality Points (All Semesters) ÷ Total Credit Hours Completed
Enter each semester's GPA and credit hours in the CGPA tab above for an instant cumulative CGPA result.
Example: Semester 1: GPA 3.62, 13 cr (47.06 QP). Semester 2: GPA 3.10, 15 cr (46.50 QP). CGPA = 93.56 ÷ 28 = 3.34.
Convert SSUET CGPA to Percentage
Use the HEC-approved formula for Sindh government job applications, PEC registration, or further study abroad:
Percentage = (CGPA ÷ 4.0) × 100
| SSUET CGPA | Equivalent Percentage | Division / Standing |
|---|---|---|
| 3.50 – 4.00 | 87.5% – 100% | First Division (Distinction) |
| 3.00 – 3.49 | 75.0% – 87.2% | First Division |
| 2.50 – 2.99 | 62.5% – 74.7% | Second Division |
| 2.00 – 2.49 | 50.0% – 62.2% | Pass |
| Below 2.00 | Below 50% | Probation / Fail |
Use our CGPA to Percentage Converter for instant results. For official sealed transcripts and degree verification, contact the SSUET Examination Controller in Karachi.
SSUET Minimum CGPA Requirements & Probation
SSUET enforces HEC-mandated minimum CGPA thresholds. Engineering students must also meet PEC graduation criteria:
| Programme Level | Minimum CGPA | Status if Below |
|---|---|---|
| BE (4-year Engineering) | 2.00 | Academic Probation; PEC graduation also requires 2.00 minimum |
| BS Computer Science / IT | 2.00 | Academic Probation |
| MS / MPhil (Postgraduate) | 2.50 | Academic Probation |
| PhD | 3.00 | Dismissal risk |
Students on academic probation must recover their CGPA in the following semester. Engineering students additionally need to satisfy PEC graduation requirements for professional registration. Contact the SSUET registrar for programme-specific probation rules.
SSUET Dean’s List & Academic Distinctions
SSUET recognises academic excellence each semester and at the annual convocation:
| Distinction | Requirement | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Dean's List (Semester) | Semester GPA 3.50+ with no F/W/I grade | Recorded on official SSUET transcript |
| Vice Chancellor's Award | CGPA 3.70+ or top rank in graduating batch | Awarded at annual SSUET convocation |
| Sir Syed Trust Scholarship | Merit rank; financial need may apply | Internal SSUET scholarship fund |
| Gold Medal | Highest CGPA in graduating batch per department | Presented at SSUET annual convocation |
Confirm current Dean's List criteria and scholarship availability with the SSUET student affairs office. HEC need-based scholarships are also available to eligible students.
SSUET Campus & Programmes
SSUET is located on University Road, Karachi. Its main campus houses all faculties with dedicated engineering laboratories, workshops, and computing facilities. The university primarily focuses on engineering and technology:
| Department / Faculty | Programmes Offered |
|---|---|
| Electrical Engineering | BE Electrical Engineering (4-year, PEC accredited), MS Electrical Engineering |
| Computer Engineering | BE Computer Engineering (4-year, PEC accredited), MS Computer Engineering |
| Electronic Engineering | BE Electronic Engineering (4-year, PEC accredited) |

Absolute vs Relative Grading at SSUET
SSUET uses absolute grading as mandated by HEC for all Pakistani universities:
| Approach | How It Works | Implication for Students |
|---|---|---|
| Absolute Grading (SSUET standard) | Fixed percentage thresholds determine grades (85%+ = A) | Your grade depends on your own marks, not class performance |
| Relative Grading (not used) | Grades adjusted based on class distribution | Class average shifts individual grade thresholds |
Under absolute grading, SSUET engineering students always know the exact marks needed in each course — making semester CGPA and PEC graduation milestone planning predictable.
How to Check Your GPA on the SSUET Portal
SSUET students access official grades and CGPA through the university's student portal or examination results system:
- Visit the SSUET official website and navigate to the Student Portal or Examination Results section.
- Log in with your student registration number and campus-issued password.
- Select Academic Records or Semester Results.
- Choose the relevant semester to view course-wise grades and semester GPA.
- Your cumulative CGPA appears in the academic transcript or summary section.
Tip: For official sealed transcripts (Sindh government employment, PEC registration, HEC attestation, or study abroad applications), submit a formal request to the SSUET Examination Controller in Karachi. Confirm processing time and applicable fees with the registrar's office before submitting.
