Integrated Learning Programme (ILP)

The Integrated Learning Programme (ILP) is a bridging programme unique to SUTD that aims to provide a review on basic mathematical and science concepts for university courses so as to smoothen the transitional experience of students.


Course Outline

ILP Mathematics, ILP Physics, ILP Chemistry and ILP Biology

The main objective of these classes is to introduce the basic mathematical and science concepts which are necessary for the first year undergraduate courses in SUTD. The topics covered are as follows:

  • Mathematics: real numbers, sets, equations, inequalities, functions, polynomial and rational functions, trigonometric functions, exponential and logarithmic functions, polar coordinates and parametric equations, vectors in 2D and 3D, sequences and series, limits, differentiation and integration.

  • Physics: kinematics; Newton’s laws of motion; work done and energy; impulse and momentum; uniform circular motion; torque; fundamentals of thermal physics; fundamentals of electromagnetics.

  • Chemistry: chemical and physical properties of the elements; periodic trends; stoichiometry; chemical bonds; chemical and electrochemical reaction; thermodynamic properties.

  • Biology: cells and organelles, biological macromolecules (carbohydrate, lipid, protein, and nucleic acid), information flow in living system, biodiversity and evolution.


How to register?

Students who have signed up for Early Matriculation 2024 (both spring and summer) will receive an official email and registration link from the Office of Admissions by mid-June 2024 to register for ILP.
