Students from AY2021 intake (and after) are required to take up compulsory internship(s), totaling 10 units. For non-iDP students, we highly recommend CP3880 (12 units) or EG3611A (10 units) in the regular semester, over shorter (vacation/summer) internship.
Students from AY2017 - AY2020 intakes are required to take up industrial attachment (IA), that is continuous over (at least) 20 weeks. For Poly students with EG3611P APCs and students in Double Degree Programme (DDP), IA is optional. Notwithstanding, affected students are still required to make-up for the 10 units.
CEG students who are keen in 5-month or 6-month IA may apply through the respective system.

Read on for the additional 6 months Integrated Industrial FYPStudents performing a 6-months industrial attachment may self-propose, or together with the company that they are attached to, a 6-months extension to pursue their final year project (CG4001 B.Eng. Dissertation) in the company. Students must be of level 4 standing (or be on track to achieve level 4 standing) at the time of commencement of the project.

A student taking this route, will work full time on the project in the industry, jointly supervised by an NUS supervisor and an industrial mentor. The supervisors will continuously monitor the student's progress. The student will keep a logbook of activities during the duration of his/her project. He/She will be required to submit two reports - for continual assessment and final assessment (at the end of the semester). At the final assessment, a dissertation is to be submitted and defended by the student.

Note:
-
Self-initiated IA/internship may be proposed via either CDE or SoC. Please refer and follow the instructions on the respective sites.
-
Students who are keen in 12-months IA (i.e. EG3611/CP3880 AND industrial-based CG4001) are recommended to plan early (for attachment in Year 3, semester 2 and Year 4, semester 1).
- AY2017/18 - AY2020/21 intakes: Students are NOT allowed to take two rounds of 3-months internship, in lieu of 20-weeks/10 units (compulsory) IA.
- In view of compulsory IA (typically in Year 3), CG4002 will be first offered in Sem 2, AY19/20, with a cap on enrolment. The cap on enrolment will apply in subsequent semesters as well. Students are Not allowed to read CG4002 in the same semester as IA. CG3207 will be offered in semester 1 (only), as an evening course.
-
While CEG students may apply for internship, via either CDE (IA/VIA) or SoC (ATAP/SIP), please DO NOT apply both sides, then decide on the ‘preferred’ offer – it does not leave a positive impression to reject an offer. Also, it will affect another applicant.
-
While students on IA are allowed to take up to two courses that are offered in the evenings, this is subjected to the necessary approvals and availability of the courses. Please do not expect that you will definitely be able to read two courses.
- With effect from AY2015/16, EG2401/A is offered in the evenings.
