Global Partners
Through strategic collaborations with our global partners and active participation in global networks, NUS is able to
offer diverse and enriching global education, research and entrepreneurial programmes. Students have the opportunity
to gain valuable
cross-cultural experience and develop a strong appreciation of global issues alongside perspectives from Asia.
Faculty are well-connected with other globally-oriented colleagues around the world, collaborating in educational
and research activities
that cannot be achieved with the same effects in one location.
