Notes

  1. Biz students who have read ES2660 Communicating in the Information Age before exiting the DDP will be considered as having read the requirement for the Critique and Expressions GE pillar. Biz students who have read CS1101S or its variants before exiting the DDP will be considered as having read the requirement for the Digital Literacy GE pillar.
  2. Biz students are exempt from doing MNO2707 Business Ethics. Students who withdraw without reading IS1108 Digital Ethics and Data Privacy will have to read MNO2707 Business Ethics (2 Units). Note: The course IS1108 Digital Ethics and Data Privacy will be renamed to “Digital and AI Ethics” from AY25/26 (Aug 2025).
  3. Students are required to take 12 Units from a list of ID/CD courses with at least two ID courses and no more than one CD Course to satisfy the 12 Units required in this group.
  4. These include career starters workshops, internships and international exposure.
  5. Biz students are exempt from doing DAO1704 and DAO2702. However, if they exit the DDP programme, they have to read DAO1704 and DAO2702.
  6. NUSC/UTCP/RVRC students are not required to read CS2101 or ES2002. Students who exit from NUSC/UTCP/RVRC without having read Thinking with Writing (NTW), UTW1001/UTW2001 or RVX would need to read CS2101/ES2002. These courses will be classified as a common course in lieu of CS2101/ES2002.

    Students who withdraw from the DDP without having read Thinking with Writing (NTW) or CS2101/ES2002, must read your own Home Faculty communication course (CS2101 for SoC; ES2002 for BIZ).
  7. Some programme electives of the two degrees are the same. If students in this DDP wish to double‐count them to meet both programmes' requirements, they need to read corresponding number of Unrestricted Electives to meet the shortfall in total Units (which must be at least 160). Excluding the university‐level requirements, the total double‐counting in this DDP combination must not exceed 32 Units.
  8. Exempted for DDP in general, but may be required to meet any shortfall of Units. The minimum Units for Double Honours DDP is 160 Units.
  9. Due to the many permutations available, students reading this programme will construct a personalised double-degree programme curriculum with the help of the DDP administrators from both schools.
