SMU students will soon have to take a new compulsory undergraduate course that includes topics on diversity and inclusion. A memorandum of understanding was signed on Friday between SMU and the Society for the Physically Disabled to promote practices for the inclusion of persons with disabilities in Institutes of Higher Learning in Singapore. Areas covered by the memorandum include better support in learning, assessment, and infrastructural changes for students with disabilities. The University has been organising conferences on topics such as inclusion, discrimination and biases for its students since last year.
