Suggested Course Schedule for
Accelerated Bachelor Programme
B.Eng. (Computer Engineering) (AY 2008)
The objective is to complete
all the requisite AUs to obtain an Honours degree
in three and a half years. In order to accomplish
this, the student is expected to take an overload
in each of the five semesters of study (excluding
the already completed semester I and Semester V,
which will be for Industrial Attachment).
This suggested plan may be altered
provided all the subject pre-requisites are met
and there is no clash in the subject or exam timetable.
Note that students may be asked
to drop out of this scheme if they fail to maintain
consistent performance in their studies.
