STAYING IN THE HEART OF ACTION
A student’s experience is determined not only by the quality of academic learning and interactions with faculty but also by the campus environment.

NUS’s three campuses, Kent Ridge, Bukit Timah, and Outram, offer students a conducive learning environment, complete with a range of amenities and services.

Kent Ridge, the sprawling 150-hectare main campus, hosts most of the University’s academic, research, and administrative facilities. It is also a bustling hub of student life, with student residences, sports facilities, and venues for arts and cultural activities.

ENHANCING STUDENT LIFE
NUS is committed to holistic personal growth and development and encourages students to immerse themselves in the vibrant and diverse activities that are constantly occurring across the University.

Students can choose to pursue their personal special interests—whether it is culture, music, research, sports, adventure, or something else—through one of the more than 200 student clubs and organizations in NUS.

The University calendar also includes a number of annual events, like Freshman Orientation, the Student Life Fair, and our most historic and iconic event: Rag and Flag, which comprises a community fundraising effort as well as a carnival replete with a parade of floats and choreographed dances to thank the public for their support.

Course Highlight/ Description

The new MSc (Biomedical Engineering) programme aims to nurture holistic engineers in healthcare technology development and healthcare.

With the growing demand for healthcare innovation in recent years as well as the projected long-term prominence of healthcare issues in our aging society, biomedical engineers play crucial roles in the expanding healthcare sector. For example, in times of a pandemic, biomedical engineers contribute to all aspects of tackling the disease, including detection, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, monitoring and surveillance. 

Biomedical Engineering integrates the principles of engineering disciplines with biomedical sciences to foster new knowledge and create new innovations in technologies and applications to enhance the quality of healthcare. We develop new medical technology and biotechnology through cutting edge research to advance medical care and scientific discovery in biomedical sciences.

Through our discoveries and knowledge creation, we provide an integrated education where we equip future engineers with the ability to analyse and address challenges in healthcare with both engineering and biomedical perspectives.
