NU Third Year Marine Fisheries GPA Calculator — Degree (Pass Course) (2025-2026)

This is the Third Year calculator for Marine Fisheries under the Degree (Pass Course) (2025-2026) syllabus at National University Bangladesh. It covers 10 courses worth 40 credit hours — 40% of the 100 credits that make up the full Marine Fisheries programme. It is the heaviest year of the 3 in this department by credit load, and averages 4 credits per course. Of those, 8 are Marine Fisheries core papers; 2 are university-wide common courses NU requires across faculties (English (Compulsory), Information and Communication Technology (ICT)).

4 of the 10 courses carry a practical, lab or viva component (Lab work, Industrial attachment & Independent Research, General Zoology Paper-III (Practical), Botany Paper-III (Practical), Biochemistry Paper-III (Practical)). They are graded as papers in their own right, so they move this year's GPA independently of the theory courses. Enter a grade for each course below and the Yearly GPA updates as you go; switch to another year tab to see how this year's 40 credits weigh into your overall CGPA.

Step-by-Step: How to Calculate Your Third Year GPA in Marine Fisheries

1. 1

   Start with the 10 papers you actually sat

   The list above is the exact 2025-2026 Third Year course set for Marine Fisheries: 8 core, 0 allied and 2 university-wide common papers. Use the Grade column to set your result (A+ through F) for each one.

2. 2

   Give the 40-credit requirement its correct weighting

   4 of these papers (Lab work, Industrial attachment & Independent Research, General Zoology Paper-III (Practical) and others) are practical or lab courses graded in their own right. Enter them separately — omitting a practical understates this year's GPA and every CGPA built on it.

3. 3

   Watch the English (Compulsory) paper move the number most

   NU's GPA is credit-weighted, so a 4-credit paper like English (Compulsory) shifts this year's GPA roughly 10% per grade step — far more than a 1-credit paper does.

4. 4

   Add the other 2 years to get your CGPA

   This Third Year contributes 40% of the 100 credits in the full Marine Fisheries programme. Switch year tabs to grade the rest — the Overall CGPA at the bottom accounts for every year you have entered.
