История
[ редактировать ]

После своего учреждения в 1956 году в качестве Департамента права Университета Малайи , закон NUS достиг статуса факультета в 1959 году, а Лайонел Астор Шеридан был назначен его основателем. Его пионерская партия студентов закончила в 1961 году, в которой были представлены будущие известные фигуры, такие как Чан Сек Кейонг и Томми Ко . После Отдела Университета Малайи в 1962 году факультет продолжал в рамках нового университета Сингапура. Впоследствии факультет стал частью Национального университета Сингапура , который был сформирован в 1980 году с помощью слияния Университета Сингапура и Университета Наняна . [ 5 ]
Программы бакалавриата
[ редактировать ]LL.B. Программа в NUS Law-это четырехлетняя программа. Студенты берут обязательные модули в первые два года и факультативные модули за третье и четвертое года. С точки зрения воздействия несвязанных субъектов, студенты могут выбрать, чтобы выбирать факультативные модули, предлагаемые другими факультетами NUS, читают для несовершеннолетних за пределами закона и принимать одновременные программы или двойные программы. [ 6 ]
Undergraduate students may go on exchange to study in a law school in a foreign jurisdiction. Students on the exchange programme pay only tuition fees at the NUS Law rate. Selected students can also combine completion of their LL.B. at NUS Law with an LL.M. from a partner institution in four years.[7]
The indicative grade profile of the tenth percentile of GCE A-Level applicants offered places in its LL.B. programme in 2020 was AAA/A.[8] Applicants are required to sit for a selection test and attend a formal interview to assess their suitability for the study of law.[9]
Graduate programmes
[edit]For graduate students, NUS Law offers a J.D. programme, several coursework LL.M. programmes, and a research Ph.D. programme. Admissions for graduate programmes generally require a good bachelor's degree in law.[10]
