*LLB Academic Briefing is part of Law Kickstarter (Compulsory Pre-Term classes) which is held on 3 to 4 August 2026. Please refer to the Law Kickstarter Draft Programme Itinerary (subjected to changes), details will be finalise by end July.
At the academic briefing, you will be briefed on the details as well as some of the courses that you could take for the coming academic year. You will also find materials that will help answer any queries that you may have pertaining to your degree programme. You may choose to attend two briefings if you have opted for a double-degree programme.
We will also give you an idea of what BOSS is.
BOSS is short for “Bidding Online SyStem”. This is a unique system that allows you to bid for your courses using “e-dollars”. As part of our scheme to mould you into smart business leaders of the future, we have created an online system for course registration that uses the bidding process.
In SMU, all course registration is done via BOSS.
