Mine was a twinning with RMIT (Melbourne)..

Spent 8 months..

The subjects depend on what you wanna major in..

I think we had 2 electives (1 is having to do with your major and 1 is a must take extra course), 2-3 must takes subjects and 1 workshop I think..

there are LOTSA programmes under the BA title.. could you please be more specific?

just to list a few:
BA (Fine Arts)
BA (Furniture Design)
BA (Multimedia)
BA (Music Industry)
BA (Textile Design)
BA (Interior Design)
BA (Digital Arts)
BA (Fashion)
BA (Packaging Design)

and, it's impossible to finish a Bachelor degree in a year, if you find a school that offers that, you should report to the MOE

zhenyang: How come cannot complete everything in 1 year er? Etsuko only 8 months? If not 1 year, then how long? Damn, if more than a year, the fees also very powderful ler. sad.gif , unless I get a part-time job there. rolleyes.gif , can cover my monthly expenses abit.
How much the fees roughly?

BA (Multimedia)
BA (Music Industry)

Either one of these.

Actually, i would want to know whether will they teach similar subjects or not, or same subjects but higher expectations? Any feedback on their University? sweat.gif

Passing mark at least? rolleyes.gif

The 8 months Etsuko said is only the final year in Melbourne. The total duration of the course is 4 years, 3 years at Limkokwing including foundation year.

Well, as for universities/colleges, you can check out: (not in order)
. Limkokwing University College
. Multimedia University
. The One Academy
. etc etc...

woops.. yeah.. I forgot to mention that. Because it's a twinning program, LUCT splitted the BA (Multimedia) into different qualifications.

The foundation was the Certificate - 1 year

The Advanced Diploma - 2 years

The Degree in Melbroune - 1 year

technically the Degree was completed in my only 8 months there, but if you calculate the whole the program then it's 4 years. smile.gif

So that means 1 year for BA ler. tongue.gif

I got shocked man when you told me that, i spent 3 years here finish my foundation and diploma, then to do BA I have to spend another 4 years, LOL!!

Ok, so for the BA (Multimedia) subjects, do they teach similiar things? I know definitely somewhere will be the same, but I hope not all.

Well, technically speaking a Bachelor degree is a minimum 3-4 years course.

You should've said you want to transfer from diploma to degree wink.gif... and you should consult with universities, not all 100% of your diploma credits can be fully transfered to the degree course, you might need to take extra subjects or...... check with the universities.

Under the British system, and those influenced by it such as the Irish, Indian, Singaporean, and Hong Kong systems, undergraduate degrees are differentiated either as pass degrees or as honours degrees, the latter denoted by the appearance of "(Hons)" after the degree abbreviation. An honours degree generally requires a higher academic standard than a pass degree, and in Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Scotland, South Africa, and Canada an extra year of study.
