The Asian School of the Environment (ASE) at NTU is an PROGRAMME OFFERED

interdisciplinary School that aims to be a world leader in
environmental research focusing on Asian environmental
challenges. We integrate earth and environmental life science,
ecology, engineering and technology, human ecology, humanities,
and the social sciences to address key issues of the environment
and sustainability.
The Environment Earth Systems Science Major is our flagship
programme. This highly selective programme favours a small
cohort, creating an innovating and interactive learning environment.
Students who choose this course will gain a strong background
in quantitative and communication skills, modern computing
techniques, and knowledge in environmental earth systems,
maths, and sciences. Students can specialise in one of the three
tracks: Ecology and Ecosystems, Geosciences, or Society and the
Earth System.
• Bachelor of Science in Environmental Earth Systems Science
Specialisations: Ecology and Ecosystems/Geosciences/Society
and the Earth System
CAREER PROSPECTS
ASE graduates are prepared with the diverse skill sets required to
fill positions in both the public and private sectors. These include:
Natural resources exploration, extraction and management, water
resource management or hydrogeology, environmental consulting,
geotechnical consulting, geologic surveying or monitoring,
environmental planning, policy and management, urban planning,
biotechnology, teaching or research. Graduates will also have
the opportunity to choose careers with employers not commonly
associated with earth and environmental sciences, such as energy-
related insurance, banking and finance sectors or research.

Be the catalyst of a sustainable future with ASE.

The NTU Science education arouses the student’s spirit of inquiry, instils respect for
evidence, objectivity and reasoning, cultivates critical analytical thinking and develops
problem-solving abilities.

At the College of Science, these highly-valued skills are imparted through a combination
of theory, experiments and practical applications. Also, opportunities abound for our
students in industrial internships, attachments to research labs, and overseas studies.

Our flexible curricula in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics and Earth Systems
Sciences prepare students to overcome multidisciplinary challenges in sustainability,
energy, environment, economics, and health that constitute major challenges for the
future of mankind.

Students have the choice of programmes in these disciplines, with optional

concentrations in current topics such as Green Chemistry and Nanotechnology. They
can also choose from several multidisciplinary programmes such as Biological Sciences
with Second Majors in Psychology, Chemical Biology, Food Science & Technology,
Biomedical Structural Biology or Biomedical Materials; Chemistry & Biological Chemistry
with a Second Major in Food Science & Technology; Physics with a Second Major in
Mathematical Sciences; the combined Major in Mathematics & Economics; and the
double degree programme in Biomedical Sciences and Chinese Medicine.

TUITION FEES
AND EXPENSES
FOR ACADEMIC YEAR 2017-18
The Ministry of Education, Singapore (MOE) provides Tuition Grant (TG) which covers a substantial portion of the full tuition fees to
eligible students.

Full-time undergraduate students who gain admission to NTU on a subsidised fee basis are eligible for TG up to the normal duration taken to complete
a degree programme. Students who receive the tuition grant are required to pay only the subsidised tuition fee.

For students who move or are re-admitted within NTU or across local universities, they will be eligible for TG up to the normal programme duration
less the number of semesters of TG received for the previous programme(s). For example, if a student has spent two semesters in a local university,
and applies to NTU to pursue a four-year (that is, eight-semesters) undergraduate programme, the student will be eligible for the MOE TG for only six
(that is, eight minus two) semesters at NTU.

The TG is also extended to Singapore Permanent Residents and International students. However, they are required to sign a MOE TG agreement in
which they will be contractually obliged to work in a Singapore-based company for a minimum period of three years upon graduation. Otherwise, they
will be required to pay the non-subsidised tuition fees.
