Studying In Singapore

A safe and nurturing environment for students to gain knowledge, practical skills, and industry insights. Hosting over 80,000 international students every year, this number is only expected to grow over the next few years.

Why Study In Singapore?

Top Education System in the world

As a country with one of the top education systems in the world, Singapore is considered to be a desirable place for many to pursue their studies. Its universities boast of world-class infrastructure and an all-encompassing curriculum that produce a pool of academic talent that is both highly advanced and competitive.

Education in Singapore

Education in Singapore is broadly divided into two categories – Private Institutions and Public Institutions. Both private and public universities will award students with certificates of their respective disciplines upon completion, and the courses that these institutions offer range from Information Technology to Engineering to Law to Social Sciences.

Duration to Complete a Degree in Singapore

The length of time it takes to complete a degree in Singapore depends on the program and your level of study.

Undergraduate

Normally takes three to four years to complete. Specialist programs such as medicine or engineering normally take four years.

Postgraduate

Normally takes two years to complete. Some postgraduate programs, like a teaching certificate, can be completed in one year.

Doctoral Program

Normally takes two to five years to complete. It takes five years to complete if you choose to teach whilst studying.

As Singapore is a hub for technology, science and finance, the country places strong emphasis on STEM subjects. In recent years, however, subjects like art and media have become more popular in Singapore.

What is the cost of studying in Singapore?

Although Singapore is known for its academic excellence not just in Asia but also around the world, surprisingly, the cost of study in this city-state is generally cheaper compared with the cost of study in other popular overseas study destinations such as Australia, the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada.
