It also discusses how to build the architecture of a post-carbon economy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>C.A.<\/b>: 100%; <b>Duration of examination<\/b>: 0 hrs<\/p>\n<a role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><button id=\"fl-accordion--button-18\" aria-controls=\"fl-accordion--content-18\" aria-expanded=\"false\" type=\"button\">GE4211\/GE4211HM- Advanced Hydrology and Water Resources Management<i data-label-icon=\"fas fa-plus\" data-active-icon=\"fas fa-minus\">Expand<\/i><\/button><\/a><h4>DR MARIO SORIANO<\/h4>\n<p><strong>GE4211<\/strong><\/p>\n<strong>Units<\/strong>: 4<br \/>\n<b>Workload<\/b>: 0-3-0-2-5<br \/>\n<b>Cross-listing(s)<\/b>: Nil<br \/>\n<b>Preclusion(s)<\/b>: GE4211HM<br \/>\n<b>Pre-requisite(s)<\/b>:<br \/>\n<strong>Cohort 2021 onwards<\/strong>\u00a0: Completed 80 Units, including 28 Units in GE.\n<p><strong>BES XDP students\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0: Completed 80 Units of NUS courses before they can read any level-4000 GE courses.<\/p>\n<p><b>C.A.<\/b>: 100%;\u00a0<b>Duration of examination<\/b>: NA<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>GE4211HM<\/strong><\/p>\n<strong>Units<\/strong>: 5<br \/>\n<b>Workload<\/b>: 0-3-0-2-7.5<br \/>\n<b>Cross-listing(s)<\/b>: Nil<br \/>\n<b>Preclusion(s)<\/b>: GE4211<br \/>\n<b>Pre-requisite(s)<\/b>:<br \/>\nCohort 2019 and before:\n<ul>\n<li>Completed 80 Units, including 28 Units in GE, with a minimum GPA of 3.20 or be on the Honours track.<\/li>\n<li>Global Studies students\u00a0:<br \/>\nCompleted at least 80 Units, including 28 Units in GL\/GL-recognised non-language courses with a minimum GPA of 3.20 or be on the Honours Track.<\/li>\n<li>BES students from both specialisations\u00a0:<br \/>\nCompleted 80 Units of NUS courses before they can read any level-4000 GE courses.
