Nanyang Technological University (NTU) hopes to attract top arts and social science students by expanding its double-major programmes. Students going to NTU this year can choose from seven double majors, which combine arts, social sciences, and business.

Among the seven double majors is one with economics paired with either media analytics, psychology or public policy.

The university will offer between 30 and 50 places each year for each double-major programme.

NTU’s senior associate provost of undergraduate education, Professor Kam Chan Hin, said combining different fields of study will improve the job prospects for NTU’s arts and social science graduates.

With the seven new offerings, NTU will offer a total of 110 undergraduate degree courses for the new academic year, which starts in August.
