The NUS French Double Degree Programme (FDDP) with the French Grandes Écoles provides the opportunities to learn from the best of both worlds, exposure to foreign cultures, networking with Singaporeans and foreigners, and proficiency in a third language. The Grandes Écoles are the top French engineering schools which provide higher education and quality research in engineering science. A common feature of all Grandes Écoles is the strong emphasis on Mathematics and Physics curricula in the first year which is equivalent to the honours level in NUS.

This fast–track 4.5-year programme allows students to graduate with a Master’s degree in Engineering and Technology Innovation Management (thereafter called MS (E&TIM)) from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and a Bachelor degree in Information Systems (hereafter called BComp (IS)) from NUS. Students get a global education with 3.5 years at NUS and 1 year at Carnegie Mellon University.
