\n\t\tInnovation & Design Programme\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

Integrating Design, Technology and Entrepreneurship<\/h3>\n

The Engineering Design and Innovation Centre is the home of the Innovation & Design Programme<\/strong> (i<\/i>DP), an undergraduate programme that aims to train graduates with an entrepreneurial mindset who understand innovation and are able to apply their knowledge and skills to solve problems or design new products, services, and experiences.<\/p>\n

In the\u00a0i<\/em>DP, students from different disciplines learn various tools and processes for ideation and design by working together on hands-on projects that have real-world impact. Those who are keen on entrepreneurship are encouraged to further develop their projects for commercialisation. Students can work on projects from a wide range of themes such as healthcare, urban mobility, sustainable cities, smart living, and intelligent systems. The i<\/em>DP is designed for students who aspire to be technopreneurs or are keen on hands-on project work.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0i<\/em>DP is open to students from all disciplines. It is offered as a Second Major in Innovation & Design\u00a0<\/strong>(cohort AY2017\/2018 onwards) and a\u00a0Minor in Innovation & Design\u00a0<\/strong>(cohort AY2021\/2022 onwards). Students who complete the\u00a0i<\/em>DP will graduate with the Second Major or Minor along with a primary major from their own discipline.<\/p>\n
