##: NUS will adopt three new academic terminologies from 1 August 2023 - “Module” will be renamed “Course”, “Modular Credit (MC)” will be renamed “Unit”, and “Cumulative Average Point (CAP)” will be renamed “Grade Point Average (GPA)”. The definition of a Module/Course and MC/Unit will remain the same, and there will be no change to the computation of the CAP/GPA.

^ It is not compulsory for DDP students to do a specialisation for the BBA degree, but they are still required to complete 20 MCs of electives based on the above arrangement. Students who wish to specialise in a business area may have to read extra modules to meet the respective specialisation requirements. Business (home faculty) students who withdraw from the DDP and return to the BBA/BBA(H) single degree programme are still required to specialise.
* These must be completed in the first semester. Late-entry DDP students must complete these in the first available semester of commencing DDP.
** Students whose home faculty is not Business School will be granted a waiver of these two modules if they have already read and passed both CFG1010 Roots & Wings 1.0 and CFG2001 Career Catalyst before 2018. There is no partial waiver or new substitutions.
