MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN!
Dear students, alumni, colleagues, and partners of CDE,
It’s that time of year again at NUS when we prepare to welcome prospective students, their friends, family, and others to our campus.
We understand that the choices available can be overwhelming, which is why CDE strives to be both comprehensive and engaging. Our Admission Microsite is a launchpad that links directly to departmental sites and offers a wealth of resources, including videos on curriculum topics, student experiences, and even virtual tours of labs and areas of interest.
Join us online for our eOpen House on 2 March, and visit us in person for the NUS Open House on 8 March. This year, we are excited to feature a Robotics Fair where students, faculty, and alumni will join forces to showcase innovative robotics projects that have the potential to transform how we work, live, and play.
Our message is clear and consistent.
CDE departments and faculty are recognised among the best in the world. Our curriculum is designed with flexibility and innovation at its core. Students are addressing real-world challenges, collaborating across disciplines, and gaining hands-on experience. Our strength lies in our shared passion for making a meaningful impact. We are committed to helping our students achieve their full potential.
As one united CDE, we look forward to meeting our new cohort in the coming month!
