Dear students, alumni, colleagues, and partners of CDE,
On 23 February, the A-level results were announced, revealing record-breaking pass rates for this year's cohort of students. Now, they are considering their options for the future, and we are excited to invite these prospective students to learn more about what CDE has to offer.
Our e-OpenHouse on 3 March and the NUS Campus Experience on 9 March at UTown will allow them to explore the vast opportunities that await them at CDE.
We have many exciting developments to share with them, including the launch of the minor and second major in Computing (Design and Engineering) open to all CDE majors except Computer Engineering. This will provide our students with a top-notch education in their chosen field of study while also allowing them to develop their computing skills, making them more appealing in today's dynamic job market.
We have launched the Design Scholars (D-Scholars) programme for Architecture, Landscape Architecture, and Industrial Design students. This premier programme will support talented students with financial and academic assistance throughout their education at CDE. It is designed to complement our Engineering Scholars (E-Scholars) programme.
With over 30 specialisations, including robotics, biomedical materials, and digitalisation in urban infrastructure, and over 4,000 electives available across NUS, our students can design their learning journey, explore new areas, and fully develop their interests, all while securing their future.
As the College bustles with activity during this Admissions period, our CDE students, faculty, and staff eagerly anticipate the opportunity to share the very best of what CDE has to offer with our prospective students. A warm welcome awaits them!

A talk by Professor Marcus Foth
This talk invites a rethinking of urban futures through the lens of relational urbanism and more-than-human design. What if cities were co-designed not just for people but with the wider web of life? What role can design play in restoring biodiversity, rewilding cities, enabling multispecies justice, and embracing ecological entanglements?
