Commencing from academic year
2001/2002, all minor programs will have six modules, and students
are required to read all six. The grades of all six modules will be
graded* and counted towards the CAP, which will in turn count
towards the degree
classification.
*with the exception of
some TR modules which is by default S/U. |
| |
|
|
Students who go on Industrial
Attachment are not allowed to read any modules in the semester even
though the classes may be conducted in the evening. They must seek
approval from the Industrial Attachment committee (subjected to
approval) prior to registering for the module(s) with the host
department/office/school. Such appeals must be emailed to Ms Koh
Hwee Min at engkhm@nus.edu.sg. |
| |
|
|
Due to limited places in each
program, each student is only allowed to read one minor program.
|
| |
|
|
The minor program will only be
reflected in the student's academic transcript and not in the main
degree scroll. |

Double
Counting Rules |
| |
|
| |
![]() 2000/2001 and 2001/2002
Cohort |
| |
According to NUS
policy, three of the minor modules can be used to satisfy the
department elective requirement or Faculty / Major requirements.
In other
words, double counting of up to three modules that are common to
both the Minor and Major requirements is
allowed.
|
| |
|
| |
![]() 2002/2003 Cohort
onwards |
| |
The modular
credits (MC) requirements for a Minor Program should not be less
than 24MCs.
Where there exists
a substantially equivalence in the modules, departments may grant
double-counting of MCs from the major requirements (up to a maximum
of 8 MCs) towards the MC requirements in the Minor Program.
A student may use
up to 12 MCs to satisfy the Unrestricted Elective Modules and
another 16 MCs from the Breadth component of the University Level
Requirements.
In case the
student does not have sufficient MCs to use from the University
Level Requirements and Unrestricted Elective Modules and/or there is
no overlapping in the modules, the MCs obtained in the Minor program
must be chalked up on top of the 160 MCs. |

Minor in
Business
Student opts to do 3GEM/1SS/3Breadth/3UEM
| Minor Module |
Double Count to: |
| MNO1001 Management and Organisation |
ULR Breadth |
| FNA1002 Financial Accounting |
ULR Breadth |
| BSP2001 Macro and International
Economics |
ULR Breadth |
| FNA2004 Finance |
UEM |
| FNA3101 Corporate Finance |
UEM |
| MKT3402 Consumer Behaviour |
UEM |
Note: SARTOR3 will be
automatically detected by DRC as fulfilled. No need to
declare.
Illustration 2:
Minor in
Bioengineering
ChEE Student opts to do 4GEM/1SS/2Breadth/3UEM
| Minor Module |
Double
Count to: |
| BN1901
Principles of Bioengineering |
UEM* |
| LSM1102 Molecular Genetics |
Breadth |
| LSM1201 General Physiology |
Breadth |
| PY1105
Physiology I |
UEM |
| CN4208
Biochemical Engineering |
Technical Elective |
| CN4210
Membrane Science and Engineering |
Technical
Elective |
*In this case, BN1901
is offered by FoE. Therefore, it cannot be used against Breadth
since it has to be a module out of the faculty.
A student who double
counts in the above manner will have 4MCs lacking in their UEM and
may choose to take up another module from ULR/TE or do a 4MC
enhancement program i.e. Vacation Internship Program.
