Q55: What are the implications of taking the Minor study?

Most of our Major bachelor's degree programmes are specialised in one single-discipline (i.e. one area of study). By taking the Minor study option, students will have the opportunity to engage in the study of another discipline, which helps broaden their study. However the consequential workload may be heavy and much extra efforts may be required.
