The period of study for the Bachelor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering (CBE) is four academic years.

During the period of study, a student must pursue courses of study as prescribed by Regulations made by the Academic Board on the recommendation of the School of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering (SCBE).

COURSES OF STUDY

The courses of study and the distribution of courses for B.Eng. (CBE) will be determined by SCBE with the approval from the University. Each Course will be assigned a certain number of Academic Units (AUs) as determined by the University. The total number of AU required in B.Eng. (CBE) programme to qualify for graduation is 136/137^ AU.

There are five course types in the curriculum:

Major Requirement - Core Courses (Core)

Core courses are offered throughout the programme of study. They are foundation courses designed to provide essential training in the fundamental of chemical engineering.

Major Requirement - Major Prescribed Elective Courses (Major PE)

Major PE courses provide students with opportunities to explore specialized areas of chemical engineering in more depth and intensity. The students may select their courses of study according to their own interests and career goals.

Interdisciplinary Collaborative Core Requirement - Common Core Courses (Common Core)

The Common Core courses are specified by the University as being essential to train today's Engineering graduates, covering areas such as communication and environmental sustainability.

Interdisciplinary Collaborative Core Requirement - Foundational Core Courses (Foundational Core)

Students are required to read and pass the Foundational Core Courses from a range of areas such as compulsory Professional Internship and Data Science & Artificial Intelligence. The number of AUs to be read in each area is specified by the School and in the table below.

Broadening and Deepening Electives (BDE)

The BDE requirement is an extended version of the Unrestricted Electives (UE) which accommodates greater diversity of choices that better align with the graduate attributes through more varied forms of curricular, co-curricular as well as experiential learning. BDE may be used to fulfil requirements for double major, second major, minor, and work-study degree programmes. It may also be used to read MOOCs approved by NTU or to read graduate level courses. General electives catering to broad interests, such as foreign language courses, can continue to be read under BDE. CBE students are required to read and pass 21AU of BDE. Students may select to read any courses from the list of BDE offered by all Schools within the University. 

AU REQUIREMENT

Students are to fulfil the specified AU requirement in the B.Eng. (CBE) programmes, according to the different course types in the curriculum structure indicated below.  The distribution of the courses of study and the associated number of AUs are shown in the tables below.
