Undergraduate Education: 

University education at NUS aims at cultivating well-informed and articulate people capable of critical thinking and learning.  To meet this objective, NUS undergraduate programmes strive for a healthy balance that would satisfy both the specialisation needed for a subject major and the broader expectations of University education. The undergraduate curriculum comprises three main components, namely, University Level Requirements (ULR), Programme Requirements, and Unrestricted Elective Modules (UEM).  Whereas Programme Requirements privilege depth, ULR and UEM are designed to foster breadth of learning.

Undergraduate Degree Requirements:

A programme leading to a Bachelor’s degree requires a minimum of 120 MCs.  A student will typically take about 3 years to complete such a programme.  A programme leading to a Bachelor’s degree with Honours requires a student to complete a minimum of 160 MCs.  It will usually take a student about 4 years to complete an Honours programme. To achieve the required credits within 3 or 4 years as indicated above, typically a student would need to complete an average of 20 MCs per semester.  Besides passing the prescribed number of modules, a student must fulfil all other requirements specified by the University and the Faculty/Department in order to graduate.

The limit on the number of Level-1000 modules to be counted towards fulfillment of graduation requirements is 60 MCs for both 120-MC and 160-MC programmes for students admitted from AY2007/08 onwards. Nevertheless, Faculties could set more stringent requirements. Students who wish to pursue an Honours degree are generally required to complete an Honours thesis/project. 

Double Degree Programmes:

NUS Double Degree Programmes (DDPs) allow students to graduate with two different degrees in two disciplines from the same Faculty/School or two different Faculties/Schools within NUS.  A double degree allows some modules taken to be double counted towards the requirements of both degrees, thus enabling the student to complete the two degrees in a shorter period than it would take to complete both degrees separately.  In general, a student in a DDP graduating with double Honours will require about five years of study, fulfilling at least 200 modular credits (MCs) to graduate.  A student in a DDP with Honours in one discipline and a general degree in the other will require about four-and-a-half-years of study, fulfilling at least 180 MCs to graduate.

Except for certain prohibited combinations, as identified by Faculties, all other combinations of DDPs are allowed. Students may put together their own double degree combinations.

There are also specially designed DDPs developed by Faculties. These are:
