These special degree programmes with premier overseas universities provide our able students with further academic challenges and the opportunities to learn alongside other brilliant students in cross-cultural settings.
Besides Double Degree and Concurrent Degree programmes, Joint Degree programmes (JDPs) are also available. A JDP combines the strengths of both NUS and our partner university's curricula and integrate international experience fully into a student's 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 various Double/Concurrent/Joint Degree programmes with overseas universities are as follows:
DDPs with premier French Grandes Ecoles
DDP with Waseda University
Concurrent Double Masters Degree Programme with the Global Alliance in Management Education (CEMS)
CDP with Carnegie Mellon University
CDP with University of Melbourne
JDPs with Australian National University
JDPs with University of Dundee
JDP with University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill
