Diploma-Plus Programmes

The School of Applied Science offers Dip-Plus modules to eligible students to prepare and strengthen their foundation for university courses or to enhance their technical capability.
 

They will undertake their chosen modules in addition to their diploma modules during the course of their study. Students who successfully complete the Dip-Plus modules will receive a Dip-Plus transcript indicating the modules, hours and grades upon graduation.  
 

The following Dip-Plus modules are offered within the School of Applied Science:

  • CLA101 Analytical Geometry (30 hours)

    This module equips students with the necessary mathematical skills and knowledge that will adequately prepare them for further studies in mathematics-related disciplines and courses at the university level. Emphasis will be on the depth of understanding on the topics covered in order to attain a strong foundation. Topics covered include functions and graphs, inequalities, conic sections, plane curves, polar coordinates, vectors, sequences and series.
  • CLA102 Applied Calculus (30 hours)

    This module equips students with the necessary mathematical skills and knowledge that will adequately prepare them for further studies in mathematics-related disciplines and courses. Emphasis will be on the depth of understanding on the topics covered in order to attain a strong foundation. Topics covered include limits of functions, derivatives and its applications (including concavity), integration techniques (including trigonometric substitutions and improper integrals) and its applications.
  • CLA103 Advanced Calculus (60 hours)

    This module equips students with the necessary mathematical skills and knowledge that will adequately prepare them for further studies in mathematics-related disciplines and courses at the university level. Emphasis will be on the depth of understanding on the topics covered in order to attain a strong foundation. Topics covered include functions of several variables, partial derivatives, multiple integrals, infinite sequences and series, test of convergence for series.
