Undergraduate Education

University-educated individuals should be well-informed, articulate people who can learn and think for themselves, and based on careful consideration of available information, decide for themselves what to believe and what to do.  To meet this expectation, NUS undergraduate programmes strive for a healthy combination of depth and breadth 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.
