OVERVIEW

The Mathematics Bridging Course is a short course covering topics in the GCE ‘O’ Level Additional Mathematics subject area. It is specially designed for individuals who have applied to the National University of Singapore (NUS) Bachelor of Information Technology (BIT) programme.

The end-of-course Mathematics Test is required for BIT applicants who may need to be further assessed by the Admission Committee. Such applicants will be informed that they are required to sit for the Mathematics Test.

BIT applicants must take either the Course, or the Course with the Mathematics Test.

ELIGIBILITY

Both the Course and the Test are compulsory for:

1. Applicants who are required to prove their competency in GCE ‘O’ Level Additional Mathematics, and
2. Applicants who hold a two-and-a-half-year part-time local diploma.

Applicants offered admission into the BIT programme who wish to refresh their knowledge in the GCE 'O' Level Additional Mathematics subject area may also apply to join the Course by emailing scale.admissions@nus.edu.sg.

UNITS

There is only one Unit in the Course, comprising a total of eight lectures and four tutorials, each of three hours' duration.

The end-of-course Test is designed to facilitate the assessment of an applicant’s potential to undertake undergraduate studies in the BIT programme.
