CDE Graduate Named Dyson Award Winner!

A project by a Division of Industrial Design graduate as his final year thesis has been named the Singapore national winner of the James Dyson Award 2023.

Auxobrace, a vest-like sternal rehabilitation device for patients who have undergone open-heart surgery, is the brainchild of DID Class of 2023 graduate Siew E Ian.
