How to Calculate GPA at University of Hamburg (Hamburg)
If you want to understand the math behind the calculator, here are the conceptual steps to compute SGPA (Semester GPA) and CGPA (Cumulative GPA) using the University of Hamburg (Hamburg) grading scale.
Step 1 — Definitions
- GPA: weighted average of grade points across courses.
- SGPA: GPA for a single semester.
- CGPA: cumulative GPA across all semesters.
Step 2 — The Formula
SGPA = Σ (Grade Point × Credits) ÷ Σ Credits
CGPA = Σ (All Semester Grade Points) ÷ Σ (All Semester Credits)
Step 3 — Map Each Grade to a Grade Point
Use the grading scale shown at the top of this page (also expandable in the "Modify Grading System" panel) as published by University of Hamburg (Hamburg).
Step 4 — Multiply Grade Point by Credits
For every course, calculate weighted grade points = grade point × credit hours. The weighted approach ensures higher-credit courses count more.
Step 5 — Sum and Divide
Add up the weighted grade points for the semester and divide by the total credit hours. The result is your SGPA. Repeat across semesters and divide cumulative grade points by cumulative credits to get your CGPA.
Worked Example
| Course | Grade | Grade Point | Credits | Weighted |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Course 1 | A+ | 4 | 3 | 12.0 |
| Course 2 | A | 4 | 3 | 12.0 |
Sum the "Weighted" column and divide by the total credits to get the SGPA.
