More flexibility for NUS arts and social sciences freshmen

The NUS Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences has announced changes to its curriculum where undergraduates who are admitted from Academic Year 2016/2017 onwards will be given more leeway to customise their undergraduate education. Three key changes have been introduced – introduction of two new compulsory core modules on writing and communication; restructuring of the requirements for Majors and Electives; and formalisation of internships into the undergraduate curriculum.
