Workload: Sample Timetable
NUSmods.com Curriculum time: Engineering 4 hrs/mod vs. BBA 3

Workload: Timetable
Be prepared for:
Workload
Travelling between faculties
Burnt weekends
Projects and finals
Compulsory accounting internship Flexible - accounting/finance related
Modified semester PLAN carefully!
Internships are important! The earlier you know what you want, the better
Internships
Advantages: “Impressive” Unique/special (can be a disadvantage too)
Exposure to both disciplines Finance knowledge (ability to understand financial statements a huge
plus)
Disadvantages: Time/discipline extremely important Both are specialized – skills/knowledge transferable? Non-academic commitments?
Career Prospects
Where do you want to go? Engineering or Accounting or Finance? Accountancy or Business degree?
Academic results only get you the interviews Rest is up to you
Career Prospects
Know what you want/why you want to do DDP Know your strengths and plan “buffer mods” Be wary of “webcast-traps” Go for exchange if you can Have an idea of what to have in your CV Keep on track with suggested curriculum
More flexibility (pre-requisites less of an issue) Batchmates
