• Choices must satisfy some rules
• Choose wisely to ensure both breadth and
• depth in your BEng program
• 23 tracks are recommended to assist you in
• your choices
• Schedule of modules depends on whether
• you are going away on Long Term IA (LIA)

Rules to achieve breadth depth BEng (EE)

• (a) Breadth requirements
• at least 4 from 4 different concentrations
• (b) Depth requirements
• at least 4 depth modules
• (c) 1 last module may be breadth or depth

9 electives
Note that at least 18 MCs of electives must be
chosen from those with EE codes ie EEXXXX
9
Rules to achieve breadth depth BEng (CPE)

• (a) Breadth requirements
• at least 4 in total 3 from Computer
• Engg and Info Proc 1 from other conc.
• (b) Depth requirements
• at least 4 in total 3 from CE and/or IP
• 1 from any conc.
• (c) 1 last module may be breadth or depth
• from any conc.

9 electives
Note that at least 12 MCs of electives must be
chosen from those with EE codes ie EEXXXX
10
Exemptions for students going on 6 month or long
term IA

• For those going on 6 month or long term IA, you
  are exempted from EE3001 and one technical
  module.
• For this group of students, you should do EE2001
  in sem 5.
• The technical module that you are exempted from
  may come from either (a), (b) or (c).For CPE
  students, note that only the 1 from other conc.
  or 1 from any conc. module can be exempted, not
  the CE and/or IP required modules.

11
Recommended Tracks

• Total of 23 tracks recommended
• Each track gives some ideas of what modules are
  impt
• Each track recommends 4-7 modules core to the
  track
• All modules listed in each track are NOT
  compulsory
• May mix and match modules to create your own
  track
• Ensure that rules are satisfied (4 breadth 4
  depth 1)
• Choose wisely to ensure breadth depth
