In week 7 of the first semester, Learning Across Boundaries (LAB) takes all first year students, faculty, and staff out of the traditional classroom setting. The Week 7 LAB has become one of the College’s flagship offerings, highlighting aspects of Yale-NUS’ distinctive education such as interdisciplinarity, innovative pedagogy, experience-based learning, and unparalleled access to professors that complement the rigorous classroom learning of the curriculum.

The week culminates in a symposium, where students and faculty share the insights and knowledge they have gleaned during the week with members of the Yale-NUS community.
