Ada ITB degree programmes yang 4 years kah? I thought they were all 3-year programmes, no? Correct me if I’m wrong.
Oh, tell me if the one spoonful of sugar works wonders for the pudding!! Inda ku mau manis-manis atu. Hehe.

Tina, there have been changes in the programme structure of the New Degree offered by ITB. The new structure now includes a “discovery year” hence the time period is now 4 years.

Ahh.. How disappointing. I thought they were 3-year programmes. Oh well. Thank you for the clarification, though! 🙂

I think they’re aiming for more marketable graduates with the inclusion of the discovery year. Especially now in the midst of a global economic crisis. Learning valuable skills and knowledge, what’s one more year? 😉

Depends on the content of the discovery year, which I still don’t know what they are. I haven’t had the chance to discuss it with my former lecturers from ITB. One year can make a big difference outside of campus. 😉
