The CN Yang Scholars Programme is one of the premier undergraduate programmes at Nanyang Technological University for science and engineering students. The programme is named in honour of Professor CN Yang, Nobel Laureate in Physics (1957) and one of the greatest scientists of our era.
The programme is designed for exceptional students with a deep passion in science and engineering, for the high-technology world of the 21st century.
It shares the same philosophy as the Caltech Core Curriculum and the MIT General Institute Requirement in providing a strong and broad foundation in the basics of science and mathematics so as to empower the student to delve deeper into any discipline in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and to develop an interest in leading edge research.
Students graduating from the challenging undergraduate programme will be awarded a special certificate on top of the degree certificate. CN Yang Scholar graduates who meet the admission requirements are given an option to pursue accelerated post-graduate study (PhD) with a top scholarship as well as overseas attachment. It is however not mandatory for students to pursue this option after graduating as a CN Yang Scholar with a Bachelor Degree.
