Joint Degree Programmes

A Joint Degree Programme (JDP) combines the strengths of both NUS and our partner university's curricula and integrate international experience fully into a student's course of study. Students will be jointly taught and assessed and jointly awarded a degree. The degree scroll bearing the crests and official signatories of both universities will be a doubly validated qualification. Students will be able to complete a JDP with Honours within four years if they follow the study plan.

The following is a list of available JDPs with Partner Universities:
