\n\t\tMinor in Interactive Media Development\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

With almost every aspect of our lives being influenced by interactive media, it is increasingly important for students from all backgrounds to be aware of how these new technologies are designed and developed. The interdisciplinary Minor in Interactive Media Development, open to students from any NUS faculty or discipline, is designed to support this need by providing an introduction to the theory and practice of interactive media development.<\/p>\n

For Communications and New Media students, the Minor provides an opportunity for students to take a selected group of relevant Computer Science (CS) courses in a structured manner. These courses provide exposure to media production, media technology, and human computer interaction. Similarly, for Computer Science students, the Minor provides a structured way for students to take a selection of Communications and New Media (NM) courses related to game design, interactive art and entertainment, and interaction design. For other students, the Minor provides a chance for students who are interested in interactive media design and development to take a sampling of both CNM and CS courses, all of which are chosen to provide insight into the interactive media development process.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tMinor requirements\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

To find out about how to graduate with the Minor in Interactive Media Development, please click on the cohort that applies to you below. If you have any specific query regarding the minor, please write to cnm.undergraduate@nus.edu.sg<\/a>, or call +65 6516 4670.<\/p>\n\t\t\tCohort 2022 onwards <\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t

Complete 20 Units of courses from the NM and CS courses lists below, of which at least 12 Units must be taken from outside the full set of courses <\/strong>which make up the student\u2019s primary major.<\/p>\n

Up to 8 Units of courses <\/strong>may be used to satisfy both major and minor requirements.<\/strong> Students must take courses from both the NM and CS course lists, <\/strong>with at least 8 Units from the NM list <\/strong>and 8 Units from the CS list.<\/strong><\/p>\n

For non-CS students, please note that NM2207 is acceptable as a prerequisite for CS3240. However, also note that CS1010 is a preclusion<\/strong> for NM2207, so students planning to take NM2207 should do so before<\/strong> taking CS1010.<\/p>\n
