Explanatory Notes
ENGG, ESTR and FTEC courses at 2000 and above level as well as those labeled as # will be included in the calculation of Major GPA for honours classification, excluding courses in the Faculty Package and Foundation Courses.
Non-JUPAS admittees and JUPAS admittees with HKDSE Mathematics Extended Modules I or II are required to attend a Mathematics Placement Test. Students who fail or are absent from the Placement Test will be required to take MATH1020 in the same term when they take MATH1510.
JUPAS admittees without HKDSE Mathematics Extended Modules I or II are required to take MATH1020 concurrently with MATH1510.
Students who fail MATH1510 in Term 1 will have to retake the course in Term 2. The pre-assigned course, ENGG1130, will also be dropped.
Students who have declared to specialize in the ELITE Stream will be required to complete 6 units of ESTR4998 and 4999 to substitute for FTEC4998 and 4999. These 6 units cannot be used to fulfill the Elective Courses requirement of the ELITE Stream.
ESTR courses will be counted as their reciprocal departmental subject areas.
Students who intend to pursue the Bachelor of Engineering (Financial Technology) and Bachelor of Business Administration (Integrated BBA Programme) Double Degree Option should not take the elective course ECON2021 because the required course DOTE1040 of the Integrated BBA Programme is not for students who have taken ECON2021.
Details of the entrance and coursework requirements, and declaration procedures for the ELITE Stream can be found at the ELITE website (www.erg.cuhk.edu.hk/erg/elite). Non-ELITE Engineering students may be allowed to take ESTR courses. Students are required to seek approval from their respective Major Programmes for using ESTR courses taken to fulfill the Major Programme Requirement. Details are available at the ELITE website.
Students can use up to 9 units of courses which have been taken to fulfill the requirements of items 1 to 4 above to fulfill the elective requirements of the ELITE Stream. Item 3(b) Research Component Courses will not be included in these 9 units. A full list of ESTR courses is available at the ELITE website.
Students can use AIST/BMEG/CENG/CSCI/EEEN/ELEG/ENGG/IERG/MAEG/ SEEM research postgraduate courses at 5000 level to substitute for ESTR courses at 3000 or 4000 level, subject to the approval of the Stream Director and the Associate Dean (Education).
The requirement of at least 3 units of Engineering courses at 5000 level is a requirement for the ELITE Stream only. It should not be interpreted as a requirement of the Major Programme.
