Students' Feedback on the new ICC Curriculum

Student feedback1 Brian Leung Leong Shi Xuan Student feedback4

Even as a humanities student, I felt I could be better in my communication and presentation skills. Presenting my findings in the ICC classes was good practice that helped me to do well in an interview for an internship. That was quite empowering.

Sherryl Vania, Linguistics & Multilingual Studies

I used to see solutions only from a tech point of view, but through this course, I learnt to think about business and social science aspects too when making design considerations.

Brian Leung Chee Hoe, Aerospace Engineering & Business

Now, I truly appreciate the beauty of interdisciplinary couses. It was fascinating to watch those of different majors having different perspectives. And to know that with collaboration, these ideas could translate into a masterpiece.

Leong Shi Xuan, Biological Sciences

Each ICC module that I’ve taken has broadened my horizons and allowed me to think critically. For instance in one module, I was able to analyse underlying developments that might not be obvious. After taking another module, I now place more significance on wellbeing, both physical and mental.
