SCIENCE Broad-based Admission Scheme
The SCIENCE broad-based admission scheme allows students to explore their interests in the following science programmes during their first year of study. The participating major programmes include:
There is no quota for a specific major, while ample academic advising will be provided to assist students in selecting their programme of study. Depending on their abilities, admitted students may be able to declare their majors at the time of entrance, or at the end of Year 1 or Year 2 (except for double major programmes).
- acquire a broader view about science
- be better prepared to study in a science major programme
- be able to tackle problems in a comprehensive and integrative manner
Students under the broad-based admission scheme will go through a common set of courses – the Faculty Package – in their first year of study. There are five groups of courses in the package: chemistry, life sciences, mathematics, physics and statistics. Students will study at least three 3-unit courses from the Faculty Package. The first course shall be chosen from the student’s most desired major programme, the second course shall be chosen from a relevant subject, and the third course shall be chosen from the remaining groups.
