In addition to the traditional additional major and/or minor approach, the innovative Extended Major framework (Major+X) is introduced to allow students to learn solid knowledge from their own majors plus innovative application of “X” in their major areas within the four-year study time frame. The curriculum of an Extended Major normally comprises 21-24 credits (at least 12 credits single-counted). Students can apply for Extended Major after their 3^rd term of study with the first major confirmed. Students who were given an offer of Extended Major would NOT be allowed to join the BBA Additional Major Selection (MSE) conducted at the end of Year 2, even if they decide to opt out of the Extended Major thereafter.
