USP students are expected to fulfill the
following requirements: |
| |
|
| |
I. Eight First Tier Modules |
| |
|
| |
First-tier modules are a structured
collection of multidisciplinary modules in which students
integrate diverse bodies of knowledge and evaluate
critically different intellectual methodologies. There are
three main Domains and thirteen Areas of study. These
modules can be read anytime over four years (preferably
within the first three years, but not all within the first
year). These modules are equivalent to level 2000 modules,
and are run by the USP Office.
Please refer to
USP website for details on First-Tier Module Domain
distribution requirements
Wherever possible, the first tier modules
will replace the University Level Requirements within the
B.A (Architecture) programme. |
| |
|
| |
B.A (Industrial
Design) students are expected to read one (1) Writing
and Critical Thinking module and one (1) Singapore
Studies themed USP module.
|
| |
|
| |
Students will be exempted from
HR3003 Management & Human Relations if they take and pass
any one of the following:
- UHB2201 Human Relations OR
- UHB2204 Leadership OR
- UHB2205 Unraveling Riddles of Culture |
| |
|
| |
Writing and Critical Thinking
module replaces AR5011 Research Methodology for students in
the Design track or Architectural Studies track. |
| |
|
| |
II. Advanced Modules |
| |
|
| |
Student must pass four (4) Advanced Modules
worth 16 MCs.
The following deliverables are set out for
Architecture students in fulfillment of the
USP Advanced Modules Requirement. |
| |
|
| |
2004/05 – 2006/07 Cohorts: |
| |
USP
students are required to conduct Independent research and
design, leading to a public exhibition.
The
exhibition will ride-on to AR4101 Design 7 (8MCs) and AR4102
Design 8 (8MCs), in satisfying the 16MCs USP Advanced
curriculum requirements. |
| |
|
| |
2007/08
Cohort onwards: |
| |
Students
will have to write extended independent research papers
linked to the following architecture modules:
-
AR3222 History and Theory of Western Architecture (4MCs)
-
AR3323 Architectural Construction 3 (4MCs)
-
AR4102 Design 8/AR4104 (8MCs)
Instead of
doing an additional assignment for the ride-on modules, the
students would be asked to undertake a more complex
assignment that would entail extended critical analysis
compared to the usual assignment. |
