Yong Pung How School of Law
The Yong Pung How School of Law is one of the six schools of Singapore Management University. It was set up as Singapore's second law school in 2007, 50 years after the NUS Faculty of Law and 10 years before SUSS School of Law. Before becoming a law school, the school was a Law Department within the School of Business between 2000 and 2007. Up until 2021, the school was known as the SMU School of Law; in 2021, it was renamed after former Chief Justice Yong Pung How. The school offers a four-year undergraduate single Bachelor of Laws (LLB) degree programme and a double degree programme combining the law degree programme with one of SMU's existing non-law programmes. The school also offers a graduate Juris Doctor (JD) programme as well as a Master of Laws (LLM) programme. The Dual LLM in Commercial Law, which confers LLM degrees from Queen Mary University of London and SMU, was launched in 2015. A PhD in Law, Commerce, and Technology was launched in 2021. Admission to the law programme is competitive: in the 2015 University Admissions Exercise, both the 10th and 90th percentile had an Indicative Grade Profile (of Singapore-Cambridge GCE A-Level qualifications) of AAA/A; approximately 1,300 applicants were shortlisted for an interview and a written test.Since the launch of its international moots programme in 2011, the school has regularly featured in the championship final of the largest and most established international moot court competitions, and holds the world records for most international moot championship finals in a season and most international moot championships in a season.
