1 Degree Requirements The following are the requirements for the degree of BEng (ChE): Students in the BEng (ChE) programme are required to complete a minimum of 160 MCs with a CAP 2.0 to graduate from the programme. Students are free to choose any combination of the offered technical electives from Table 3.2.2b to satisfy the technical elective and pathway requirements. There are three engineering pathways, namely, (a) Research-Focused Pathway (RfP) (b) Innovation & Design-Centric Programme Pathway (idcp) and (c) Practicing Professional Pathway (PPP). Please refer to Table 3.2.2c below. The default pathway is PPP for all students (no action required). If students want to select RfP or idcp pathways, they have to obtain Department s approval and fulfil all requirements to graduate.
