Preparatory Course to Bachelor of Computer Science

Even though I was offered the direct entry to the Bachelor of Computer Science (BCS) program, I decided to sign up with the Preparatory Course to prepare myself for my BCS program.

The Preparatory Course for Computer Science are usually for students who do not meet the entry requirements for direct entry. This may be due to different reasons such as either their diploma are not pure IT based or their diploma are based on other engineering disciplines.  Another reason could also be that their  grade point average(gpa) is deemed not good enough.

The Preparatory Course consists of 4 modules: Java Programming 1, Java Programming 2, Introduction to Discrete Mathematics and Information Encoding.

For students who are required to attend the preparatory course, they have to pass the preparatory course with at least a 65% grade. Only upon successful meeting this requirement shall the student be allowed to attend the BCS program.

The above information was written to my best knowledge. You should always consult Ngee Ann- Adelaide for a more accurate information for your situation.
