Majors and Specialisations

Students have the option of pursuing majors and specialisations from their chosen tracks by first taking introductory courses and subsequently a package of compulsory courses. Different types of degrees will be awarded.

Majors:
IST: Major 1-2
ME: Major 3
CE: Major 4-5
DS: Major 6
Specialisations:
IST: Specialisation 1-3
ME: Specialisation 4

STEAM Scenario-based Courses

Students are encouraged to select courses based on their interests and learning objectives. Scenario-based courses are taught using a blended method to promote interdisciplinary engagement.

Bachelor Degrees

Upon meeting requirements for 1) General Education Courses, 2) Foundation Courses, 3) Introductory Courses, 5) STEAM Scenario-based Courses, and 6) Practice Courses and the Capstone Project, students will be awarded different types of degrees based on their selected courses and/or course packages from 4) Compulsory Courses for Majors and Specialisations:

Bachelor of Engineering in [Majors]

Students can graduate with a traditional engineering degree in a major by completing the required course package. If the total credits in that package fall short of the minimum requirement, they must take additional courses from the same track to meet it. In addition, students are expected to fulfill all other compulsory course requirements specified by their major.

  • Students who fulfil the requirements of the five- year  architecture  program  will  be  awarded  a Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.) degree.

Bachelor of Engineering in Interdisciplinary Engineering

Students can also graduate with the new interdisciplinary engineering degree by freely taking a minimum required credits from Compulsory Courses.

If students further meet the following requirements, they can obtain certificates of tracks/specialisations:

  • Students who obtain required credits of courses all within a single track will be awarded a Certificate of the Track (e.g., Certificate in [Track Name]).

  • Students who complete all courses from a single package of specialisation, and take additional courses from the corresponding track to fulfill the credit requirement will be awarded a Certificate of the Specialisation (e.g., Certificate in [Specialisation Name]).
