3.7.1     Dean’s List

A Dean’s List will be prepared for both Semesters I and II, but excluding the Special Terms. It comprises the top 5 percent of the total undergraduate Science students and the top 7 percent of the Pharmacy students based on the following criteria:

A) Minimum Workload

Students reading a workload of at least 19 MCs (for Science Students) and 20 MCs (for Pharmacy Students) will be considered. This workload includes all modules read in the semester under consideration, with the following conditions:

•      Includes at most one Breadth/General Education/Singapore Studies module with Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory option;
•      Excludes modules ES1000 and ES1102;
•      Excludes modules with ‘EXE’, ‘IP’, ‘IC’ or ‘W’ grades;
•      Includes half of the MCs of an 8 MCs UROPS module, or 4 MCs, in the computation of the student’s workload in the first semester, and the remaining 4 MCs in the computation of the second semester’s workload; and
•      No MCs from the Honours project module to be included in the student’s workload in the first semester, and the full MCs to be counted in the second semester.

B) Semester Average Point (SAP)

Semester Average Point (SAP) is computed from grades achieved within the semester under consideration. Only students with SAP of at least 4.30 will be considered.

Formula for computation of SAP: ∑(Grade Point* MCs)/∑ (MCs)

The computation of SAP for the Dean’s List:
•      Excludes modules ES1000 and ES1102; and
•      Allows students to receive the full contribution to SAP from their 8 MCs UROPS and Honours project modules in the second semester.
