Exercise the grade-free option to a maximum of 32 MCs at first-year level. After the first-year, any unused MCs to a maximum of 12 MCs may be carried forward and applied at any stage during the second through fourth years of study.

The S/U option will apply to all Level 1000 modules (with or without pre-requisites) and Level 2000 modules without other NUS modules as pre-requisites, unless otherwise stipulated by the Faculties/Departments

Engineering Principles and Practice

• Engage and expose Year 1 students to equip them with some of the important engineering principles and systems thinking approach to address industrial and systems engineering problems

• Raise students’ curiosity and passion to industrial and systems engineering problems

• Expose students early to problems motivated by real problems and examples

• Implement studio-based learning or computer laboratory, blended with experiments that students would plan and conduct to deepen the learning

Systems Design Project 1. Students work on an actual industrial problem sponsored

by a company over 2 semesters

2. Apply knowledge learnt in the classroom to solving an

actual industrial problem

3. Acquire intangible attributes via teamwork and practical

experience that cannot be taught in a classroom

environment
