3.2.9.3 Recommended Semester Schedule
The recommended semester schedules for Direct Entry
Materials Science and Engineering students and
Common Engineering students are presented in Table
3.2.9c and Table 3.2.9d respectively.
Compared to the recommended semester schedule of
First-Year Common Engineering, a Direct Entry student
should read MLE1101 Introductory Materials Science and
Table 3.2.9c: Recommended Semester Schedule for Direct Entry MSE Students Modules

Engineering in Semester 1 instead of EG1109 Statics and
Mechanics of Materials, as EG1109 is not included in the
Faculty Requirements for B.Eng. in Materials Science and
Engineering.
For a Common Engineering Entry student, MLE1101 should
be taken in Semester 1 of Year 2. EG1109 Statics and
Mechanics of Materials is counted towards Unrestricted
Elective Modules (UEMs). It is recommended, that a
Common Engineering Entry student may read 16 MCs
from Technical Electives (4 modules of 4 MCs) instead of
15 MCs as required (without reading an extra module).
