The rapidly changing nature of work, compounded by the relentless speed of innovation, necessitates that our graduates constantly acquire new knowledge and skills, and adapt to several career changes over their lifetime. As forward-looking educators, we are in continual pursuit of providing a holistic education grounded in future-ready skills which will prepare our graduates for lifelong learning and global citizenship.

Such an education needs to transcend the traditional boundaries of disciplines to address the nexus between theoretical and practical learning; “hard skills” and “soft skills”; and core curriculum and co-curriculum. Hence, a new curriculum structure was set up to address these needs, featuring a range of Interdisciplinary Collaborative Core (ICC) Courses.

Aligned with the NTU 2025 Education Strategy and the learning outcomes embodied by the 3Cs expected of all NTU undergraduates - Character, Competence, and Cognitive Agility - these ICC Courses focus on key transferable skills and global challenges using an interdisciplinary and collaborative approach to learning. They also make use of a mixed modality of face-to-face classes and online/virtual classes in a collaborative setting offering both local on-campus and overseas experiences.
