Abstract

The SMU Business School (School) undergraduate curriculum leads to the award of the degree of Bachelor of Business Management (BBM). The objective of the programme is to produce professionally competent graduates who are entrepreneurial, creative, capable of critical thinking and committed to life-long learning. In order to accomplish this objective, the curriculum is structured into 3 sections and a business attachment.

The School offers students a carefully designed programme in which business and management education is integrated with a broad-based foundation throughout the student's 4 years. The courses aim to equip all students with the fundamental skills and attributes needed to operate in a dynamic and challenging environment. Students are expected to develop and fine-tune analytical skills, adopt a creative approach to varying and rapidly changing situations, communicate effectively, and lead successfully.

The School's curriculum will ground students thoroughly in the theories, concepts and working tools essential for operating in a modern business environment. Successful graduates will be proficient in oral and written communication, and will be able to understand and apply quantitative analysis to the solution of business problems. As managers, they will also be able to utilise computer and other technologies in decision-making and other processes.

The Business Attachment requirement consists of a 10-week business attachment at a business organisation and a 2-week attachment at a Voluntary Welfare Organisation (VWO). As the details of the organisations and the time spent in each will be reflected in the transcript, students must ensure that they have fulfilled the full 12 weeks before filing for graduation.
