"TDP in Science offers an enriching environment conducive to the study of science beyond the normal curriculum offered by the faculty. Its unique blend of project work, intellectual discussions and seminars broadens the perspectives of each participant."

WHAT
The TDP in Faculty of Science is a bold experiment that aims to provide the best possible education for each participant under a broad framework of exploring science through an inter-disciplinary approach and inquiry-based learning. This intense programme hopes to cultivate in each participant the attributes and attitudes that underlie human greatness. TDP provides a radically refreshing challenge that many erudite scholars yearn for but few have the opportunity to experience. Be part of a pioneering initiative - DIVE into the TDP.

HOW
The sojourn in TDP in Faculty of Science begins with a semester that inducts the participant into a culture that cherishes talents, values scholarship and inspires excellence. Participants subsequently read four modules TDSC2171---74 that introduce some of the broad areas of concerns in contemporary science through seminar discussions as well as collaborative laboratory and field work. The contents of these modules focus on areas of science that interest the participants. Strong emphasis is placed on the in-depth study of specialized topics and on projects that often bring the participants to the frontiers of scientific endeavour.

WHO
The TDP community in Science is an eclectic bunch of uniquely gifted individuals who are highly motivated, and who share a common passion for science and a commitment to improve themselves. A strong spirit of camaraderie is established through the teamwork in their strife to be the best that they can ever be.
