Table C: List of 20 MC * of Common Modules, Contributing to FASS Requirements |
| |
For students who matriculate
from AY2007/2008
onwards |
| Module Title |
MA1505 Mathematics I |
These two modules are EC-recognized modules that students can use to fulfil Economics major requirements.
|
MA1506 Mathematics II |
PH2208 Applied Ethics / PH2218 Business Ethics (fulfils the FoE requirement for the 3MC EG2401 Engineering Professionalism*) |
These two modules are accepted in lieu of the FASS Faculty exposure requirements. They involve some social science and some humanities. Students must also complete
a 4 MC exposure module from Asian Studies as part of the FASS requirements (eg. CH1101E, CL1101E, JS1101E, MS1101E, SE1101E, SN1101E).
|
|
SC2202 Sociology of Work or SC1101E Making Sense of Society (fulfils the FoE requirement for the 3MC HR2002 Understanding Human Relations in the New Economy*) |
|
• CE2407 Engineering and Uncertainty Analysis (for CE & EVE students)
• CN3421 Process Modelling & Numerical Simulation (for ChE students)
• EE2012 Analytical Methods in Electrical and Computer
Engineering (for EE students)
• ST1131/ST1131A Introduction to Statistics (for ISE students)
• ST2334 Probability & Statistics (for CEG students)
• MA3501 Math. Methods in Engineering (for ME and BIE students).
MA3501 is a common module for BIE until AY2011/12.
• BN2102 Bioengineering Data Analysis (for BIE students) wef AY2012/13.
BIE students of earlier cohorts who have yet to
take and pass MA3501 will read BN2102 instead.
|
To replace the essential module EC2303: Foundations of Econometrics. These modules are already alternative prerequisites for the later essential module EC3303: Econometrics I. Conversely, if a DDP student has already read EC2303, he must still read one of the modules listed on the left side of the table. |
* These 20 MCs of common modules replace 18 MC in the B.Eng. (Hons.) Programme requirements.
