Q1: What is the default mode of teaching and learning for the CDE common curriculum?
A: In line with the government’s move towards an endemic state for COVID-19 and with our high vaccination rates, we will be having maximal face-to-face classes for Semester 2 of AY2021/2022, where prevailing safe management measures permit. In-person attendance is expected for all face-to-face classes, including examinations, which will be shifting back to face-to-face as the default.

| EG1311 Design and Make | Lectures are 100% e-learning while EG1311 lab sessions are face-to-face. As the lab work is heavily group-based, students who are overseas should plan your travel to Singapore to be in time for the lab sessions. |

Q2: If I have a need to remain overseas, can I appeal to study remotely?
A long-distance learning option is no longer maintained for students who are overseas. Please make immediate arrangements to travel to Singapore. If you continue to remain overseas, you would be deemed to have done so for personal reasons, which would require an application for Leave of Absence. Applications should be made by the end of the second instructional week, failing which you may be liable for fees.
Q3: If all my classes are taught online, can I remain overseas?
The default mode of assessments (both final examinations and continual assessments), will be face-to-face unless otherwise stated by the module lecturer. In general, you will be expected to attend the assessments in person, and no online option will be made available.
Q4: I am taking bridging modules or other NUS modules. How do I tell whether they are online or face-to-face?
A: You can check NUSMods to see if the class venue is listed as a classroom/lecture theatre or "E-Learn".
