 Modular &
Credit-Based Academic System
All courses offered at the Nanyang Polytechnic follow a modular &
credit-based academic system (refer to table below for NYP Assessment
(Credit-Based) Regulations). Each course has a combination of different
units of study called modules. These modules cover various subject areas
relevant to the course and are broadly classified as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
These modules ensure that students receive a firm foundation
in the central discipline of their studies.
Students must pass all relevant core modules to graduate.
|
|
|
Students are required to choose from clusters of recommended
modules where available.
These help students to develop specific focus and fields
of specialisation within their programmes.
|
|
|
Where available, these are options to expose students
to subject areas outside their main discipline of studies.
Students may register for modules that match their interests.
|
|
Where permitted, students will enjoy the flexibility
of choosing certain areas of study to match their interests and aptitudes
or to adapt their academic workload to suit their pace of learning.
