Minor in Chemistry and Biological Chemistry
The School of Chemistry, Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology (CCEB) offers a minor programme in Chemistry and Biological Chemistry for all NTU undergraduates not enrolled in CHEM degree programmes. The minor programme provides exposure to the principles and key applications of chemistry. It is especially useful for students majoring in the biological sciences, materials science, education, mathematics, and physics.
For intake U20 and before, courses used to satisfy minor requirements must be taken on a letter grade basis (i.e., the Satisfactory / Unsatisfactory option cannot be exercised). For students on the Interdisciplinary Collaborative Core (ICC) Curriculum, intake U21 and after, up to 6 AU of courses for the Minor can be non-letter graded
