The School of Science and Technology, Singapore and Ngee Ann Polytechnic will be launching a pilot Integrated Diploma Programme (IDP).
The IDP is designed for academically strong students who have an aptitude in applied Science, technology, engineering, as well as mathematics (Stem).
Under the programme, students from SST will progress directly to a Stem course in NP without having to sit the O levels.
It is hoped that the IDP would allow students to have more time and space freed up to engage in deeper applied learning, across a wider range of Stem fields.
Details of the pilot programme are being worked out by the Education Ministry, SST and NP.
