Course Structures
The four undergraduate programmes offered by Universiti Brunei Darussalam (UBD) will comprise three basic components.
- Electives
These are existing courses from other faculties/departments including languages.
- Faculty Breadth
These courses are to be developed as breadth courses by the Faculty. For example, the Faculty of Business, Economic and Policy Studies (FBEPS) can give courses on leadership, entrepreneurship, etc. These will be considered new courses.
- Interdisciplinary Breadth
These courses will incorporate multiple disciplines in one course reflecting the “real world” investigation of issues such as climate change, globalization, genetics in society and the Heart of Borneo initiative. These will be considered new courses and will change over time as required.
