Curriculum (Cohort 2024 Onwards)

The programme emphasizes a balance of both technical and soft sciences. Students are required to complete 12 credit units of core courses (6 credit units of core courses of Programme Core Courses and 6 credit units of Stream Core Courses), and 18 credit units of elective courses.

Students can declare concentration for one of the streams: Energy Stream (ENE) and Environment Stream (ENV), or not to declare for any concentration.

Stream Declaration Arrangement

Students are flexible in choosing courses with or without the declaration of a stream:
Energy Stream (ENE) /Environment Stream (ENV) /Not to declare for any concentration
Full-time students will be required to submit stream declaration by the end of the first Semester (Semester A). Part-time students no later than the end of the second Semester (Semester B).
Change of stream declaration is allowed later on given that the students could fulfill the stream requirements upon graduation.
