For CEG AY2017/18 to AY2020/21 intake
Students can opt to exclusively focus in one of the concentrations of Communications & Networking, Embedded Computing, Large-Scale Computing, Intelligent Systems, Interactive Digital Media and System-on-a-Chip Design by taking the electives in these concentrations.
The courses in each concentration are categorised as Breadth or Depth courses. A breadth course enables students to achieve a broad understanding of concepts in the particular concentration. Students may read breadth electives to achieve exposure to various facets of CEG. A depth course is at higher level and provides greater depth and coverage in the particular concentration.
The rules are as follows:
AY2017/18 - AY2020/21 intakes: To achieve depth, CEG students need to read a minimum of 12 units of depth electives. All technical electives must add up to at least 20 units. Students are encouraged to take more technical electives (and count them towards fulfilling UE).
Although CG4001 BEng Dissertation (also known as Final Year Project) is no longer compulsory, students are recommended to take up CG4001 (12 units) OR 8 units research-oriented project offered by CS (CP4106 Computing Project) or ECE (EE4002R Research Capstone)*.
These courses may come from any of the concentrations. While there is no necessity, students may opt to focus in a particular concentration. To do so, a student should read at least 16 units of technical electives from the same concentration e.g. 1B+3D or 2B+2D. Students will have to ensure that they have read the prerequisite course(s) of the depth courses. This may have an impact on the selection of breadth courses.
As an additional note, other level 3000/4000 courses hosted by CS or ECE can be used to fulfill CEG Technical Elective (TE) requirements (under no particular concentration). A CS/EE3-coded course will count as CEG TE Breadth, while a CS/EE4-coded course will count as CEG TE Depth.

*CG4001 (12 units) will be mapped to [8 units TE Depth and 4 units UE], while CP4106/EE4002R will be mapped to 8 units TE Depth. Students returning from NOC year-long programmes are precluded from CG4001, CP4106 and EE4002R.
**Students are required to read either CG3207 or CS3230 as Programme requirements. Only students who passed both courses can count (the other/second) one as TE Breadth.
12 units internships i.e. CP3880, EG3611/B, TR3202% will be mapped to [10 units IA under Programme requirements and 2 units TE Breadth].
The following level 2000 courses can count as CEG TE Breadth: CS2104, IE2110 and IE2130.
Students who are keen in graduate studies (hosted by CDE or SoC) should note the respective policy governing credits transfer themselves via the Graduate Admissions page.
