Majors
FoS offers around 10 primary majors, and students will have the opportunity to plan their learning pathways based on their interests and career aspirations. To graduate, students would have to fulfil the requirements of at least one primary major. Students may also undertake a major with minor, double major and even a double degree programme.
For Cohorts AY2020/21 and before, students can either opt for a three-year Bachelor’s degree (120 Units) (with the exception of Computational Biology, Data Science and Analytics, Environmental Studies and Pharmacy which are strictly four-year programmes) or a four-year Bachelor’s degree with Honours (160 Units).
For Cohort AY2021/22 onwards, all majors will be offered on a four-year direct Honours programme. With the exception of Pharmacy, all major programmes are offered under the College of Humanities and Sciences (CHS). Please refer to the CHS website for more information on CHS.
