Core curriculum
At least 128 credits must be taken.
Total credits (128) = compulsory courses for NTU (12) + general education (15) + compulsory courses for BST (79) + selective courses (25)
*Physical education (4) = health related physical fitness (1) + the special item of physical education cluster (1+1+1); the 4 credits are compulsory but do not contribute to the total credits required.
→Compulsory courses for NTU (12) = Chinese (6) + foreign languages (6) + service learning Ⅰ & Ⅱ (0) + advanced English Ⅰ & Ⅱ (0)
→Compulsory courses for BST (79) = general compulsory courses (71) + selective compulsory courses (8)
