    Notes:

    • Students are required to fulfil 26 AUs in Major Prescribed Electives.
    • Specialisation can be fulfilled through Major Prescribed Electives and/or BDEs. FGO is not applicable to courses that count towards the requirement for specialisation. The same course cannot be used to count towards two different specialisations. 
    • A minimum CGPA of 4.50 and a grade of A- or better in the Final Year Project (MH49XX) are required to be eligible for Honours (Highest Distinction). A minimum CGPA of 4.00 and a 'Pass' grade in the Final Year Project (MH49XX) or the Group Final Year Project (MH4915) are required to be eligible for Honours (Distinction). 
    • Students must read either Professional Internship (MH4912) or a 20-week Overseas Entrepreneurship Programme (OEP) to fulfill the ICC-FC requirement (Eligible to take from Year 3).
    • All core courses cannot be mapped to exchange courses. A maximum of three Major Prescribed Electives can be mapped to exchange courses. Courses that count towards specialisation cannot be mapped to exchange courses. Please refer to this page for more information.
