Law students at the SMU who wish to specialise can now do so in corporate transaction, law and technology, or dispute resolution – three tracks that are tailored to better prepare them for employment. SMU also announced that all law students must take a mandatory law capstone course, which is interdisciplinary in nature, before they graduate from the Yong Pung How School of Law (YPHSL). SMU is the only law school in Singapore to offer the specialisation tracks for students. Second-year LLB students Adrian Teh Tian Xin said, “It makes sense to pursue a track that can help me synergise both my academic pursuits.” while Kylie Teong Li Ying said that the tracks ‘will better equip us with knowledge to handle both old and new issues we face in our working world’. SMU Professor of Law Lee Pey Woan, Dean of YPHSL, said, “These changes will further strengthen and distinguish SMU’s LLB programme, and nurture future-ready and practice-ready SMU law graduates; they also give students a distinct competitive edge when they enter the workforce.”
