What are the benefits for SHARP students who are enrolled in CDP?

SHARP students who are selected for CDP will be awarded tuition fee waiver in Terms 9 and 10. The tuition fee waiver is valued at the applicable postgraduate tuition fees* for Singapore Citizens.

 

*Based on tuition fees for new full-time students during the Admission Year. Tuition fees are pegged to the prevailing fees for postgraduate programmes offered by SUTD.

Will the CDP require significant extra work?
Students in SHARP will have already fulfilled more than half of the requirements for an MEng from SUTD, provided they choose a cross-listed undergraduate and graduate course in Term 7 or 8. Within Terms 9 and 10, they will just need to take one graduate course, and extend their project to satisfy the criteria for an MEng thesis.
What is the structure for SHARP students who are selected for CDP?
Selected students will be enrolled as BEng students from Terms 1 to 6, and continue as concurrent BEng and MEng students from Term 7 to 10.
What are the selection criteria for Concurrent BEng-MEng Degree Pathway (CDP)?
The Concurrent BEng-MEng Degree Pathway (CDP) will be offered to outstanding SHARP students who meet the requirements to remain in SHARP after 5 terms and have shown strong aptitude for publishable research work. Students must maintain a minimum cGPA of 3.5 and above, and good research progress. Only selected SHARP students in CSD, EPD and ESD are eligible for application to CDP.
