Recommended Tracks
 For the list of recommended tracks, refer to the Tracks List file:
http://www.ece.nus.edu.sg/students/secondyr/ee3lists.htm
 A total of 24 (EE) and 8 (CPE) tracks are recommended.
 Each track recommends a number of modules ‘core’ to that track.
 Modules listed in each specialization track are NOT compulsory.
 You are NOT required to read all modules listed in a particular track. You
may mix and match modules to create your own track.
 Even if you have taken all modules in a track, it does NOT necessary mean
that you have satisfied the specialization rules.
 Important: You must ensure that rules to achieve breadth & depth
requirements (specialization rules based on concentration) are satisfied.
 Pay attention to pre-requisites and take modules in an appropriate order.
