The Engineering Product Development (EPD) pillar prepares students for leadership in the conception, design, implementation and operation of innovative technology-intensive products, with emphasis on products and systems. In this program, all SUTD students will take foundational subjects in humanities and the sciences as part of their curriculum. EPD pillar students will be engaged in common foundation classes in both Mechanical and Electrical subjects, building a strong base during term 5. From Term 5 onwards, aside from EPD core subjects, they will have a variety of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (HASS) electives and Technical Application (TECH) Electives to choose from. The core subjects of this program include: Probability and Statistics, Circuits and Electronics, Structures and Materials, Systems and Control, Engineering Design and Project, and Engineering.
