  1. Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering Chemical Sciences Programme NUS (Joint Effort by Office of Life Sciences, Department of Chemistry and Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering)

  2. Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering Objective To provide students with a strong and broad foundation in life and chemical sciences in their undergraduate studies, leading to a graduate program and research in interdisciplinary areas such as medicinal chemistry, and other approved life sciences-related graduate programs

  3. Chemical Sciences Programme ChemicalEngineering Chemistry 4 yrs (Base degree) (Base degree) Graduate ProgramMedicinal Chemistry, Other Life Sciences Programs 4 yrs Industrial/RI Attachment 2 yrs Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering

  4. Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering Chemical Engineering Core LSM Modules 6 core (26 MCs) Chemistry Modules 4 core (16 MCs) Choose 3 from the 8 optional modules

  6. Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering Chemical Sciences Program – BEng (Chemical) Summary of Module Requirements and Credits Details in Annex B

  7. Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering A Possible Study Plan for Chemical Sciences Program* # Electives CM4221 Chemistry of Natural Products (4) CM4222 Advanced Organic Synthesis & Spectroscopy (4) LSM3211 Fundamental Pharmacology (4) LSM3224 Molecular Basis of Human Diseases (4) LSM3232 Microbiology (4) LSM3231 Protein Structure & Function(4) LSM4211 Toxicology (4) LSM4221 Drug Discovery & Clinical Trials (4)  Students may have to rearrange the modules to meet time-tabling constraints TOTAL MC = 161-163 (instead of 160 for the usual BEng)

  8. Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering Minor in Life Sciences Automatic attainment of minor upon completion of all minor requirements Biomedical Science Molecular & Cell Biology LSM3211 Fundamental Pharmacology + LSM3224 Molecular Basis of Human Diseases LSM3231 Protein Structure & Function + LSM3232 Microbiology To satisfy Level 3000 requirement OR

  9. The NUS Chemical Sciences Programme Eligibility for admission to the Chemical Sciences programme • - Singaporean, Permanent Resident or Nationals of ASEAN countries • - Applicants must be full-time students majoring in Chemistry or Chemical Engineering in the Faculties of Science and Engineering respectively. • Criteria for selection • Good “A” Level results or equivalent • Interview/Essay test

  10. The NUS Chemical Sciences Programme The A*STAR Pre-Graduate Awards (PGA) in Chemical Sciences • Tuition fee subsidy for Year 2 - 4 during the undergraduate studies • Monthly Stipend

  11. The NUS Chemical Sciences Programme Eligibility for A*STAR Pre-graduate Award • Singaporean, Permanent Resident or Nationals of ASEAN countries* • Applicants must be full-time students majoring in Chemistry or Chemical Engineering in the Faculties of Science and Engineering respectively. • Applicants must not concurrently hold any other scholarship, fellowship or award * Must be willing to take up Singapore citizenship if offered A*STAR scholarships for PhD studies. Criteria for selection • Good First Year results • Interview

  12. The NUS Chemical Sciences Programme Pre-Graduate Award Bonds Scholarship holders are required to serve a 4-year bondwith A*STAR if they continue with NGS and take up the A*STAR Graduate Scholarship. Should scholars be unsuccessful in securing a place in NGS and choose to pursue PhD studies in other NUS programmes, they will be required to honour a 2-year bond which they may serve in any of the A*STAR supported Research Institutes in Singapore.

  13. The NUS Chemical Sciences Programme Eligibility for A*STAR Pre-Graduation award • Important Note • Satisfaction of the above eligibility criteria does not guarantee the receipt of the PGA • The no. of PGA awarded is dependent on the no. of PGA provided by A*STAR
