Recently the National University of Singapore has offered Engineering Science Program as one of the courses.

Engineering Science is considered a new course in ASEAN region, and not many people know about it.

May I know what is the difference between Engineering Science and conventional engineering courses, and what are the job opportunities for Engineering Science graduate?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
for me at UCSD Eng Sci is is less about design and more about the necessary science.
 
So how is their career opportunities different from engineering? Is it more incline towards research field?
