Double Major | Explore NTU Humanities

DOUBLE MAJOR PROGRAMME

Unlike the existing single discipline-based degrees, this degree will feature two distinct majors within an innovative new structure. As such this is a fully conceived double-disciplinary degree. Each major will have equal weightage. Students will be admitted into this Double Major degree programme at the point of entry to NTU and declare their two majors at this point.

The Double Major degree programme offers students the opportunity to specialise in any two major academic disciplines and will encourage a multidisciplinary educational and intellectual focus; it will equip students with the transferable skills of a liberal arts education for successful careers in the rapidly changing environment of the 21st century.

Second Major

Students can choose to pursue a second Major in another discipline offered either by: - their home School, or - by another School within the College. The second major provides students with breadth of exposure and is also designed to provide greater depth of study in an additional discipline. Students will graduate with a degree in their First Major upon satisfying the academic requirements of the School. The Second Major will be shown on the final transcript, and students will receive an additional certificate. Students will need to obtain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 4.0 in their first year at university to be eligible to take up a second major. Second Majors offered by the School of Humanities include: Art History Chinese English History Linguistics and Multilingual Studies Philosophy Theatre Studies and Drama Click here to find out more about the second Major.
