# Effective from Semester A 2021/22, the two interpretation elective courses LT4375 and LT4376 will be changed to B3 level and the course codes will be changed to LT3375 and LT3376. The changes reflect the relative academic levels of the 4 interpretation courses.
@ The credits earned from a successful completion of the Asian or Global languages courses at level 2 or above will be counted to fulfil the major electives and the maximum credits to be counted are 3. |
Notes:
** Students of second major and students changed to the major (only applicable to Normative 4-year Degree and Advanced Standing I students) will follow the Advanced Standing I curriculum and will be required to take one designated Foundation-year course, i.e. LT1202 (3 credit units). |
