FAQ
E-Scholars and other concurrent programmes
Can I enrol in a Double Degree Programme & be an E-Scholar?
Yes. It is possible to pursue your undergraduate studies in 4 years and obtain a double degree programme (DDP) instead of a Master’s degree in your 4th year. E-Scholars will have to gain admission to the DDP on their own merits.
Can I combine E-Scholars with the Innovation and Design Programme (iDP)?
Yes, E-Scholars can opt to join the iDP programme. However, they must make sure to have cleared at least 12 Advanced Placement Credits (APC, equivalent to 3 courses) before matriculation in order to be eligible to apply for iDP. This is because E-Scholars, who will be accelerating their degree in 3 years, need enough time to dedicate to the various iDP project courses.
Can I do a double major/minor within the E-Scholars programme?
Double majors and minors are credits that students clear under their Unrestricted Elective Modules (UEM). There is nothing that prevents E-Scholars to use their UEM to clear their second major/minor requirements.
Can I be in the NUS Engineering & Medicine Track and E-Scholars at the same time?
Yes, provided they join the iDP programme (see above).
