“NUS ECE fosters learning through engaging courses that offer interesting hands-on projects. Joining Team Bumblebee, a student robotics team, was a highlight. It provided an environment for like-minded students to develop our own autonomous maritime vehicles. Furthermore, the curriculum’s flexibility has empowered me to specialise in Robotics and undertake a minor in Innovation and Design. These experiences have not only honed my skills but also broadened my horizons through international robotics competitions. My journey at NUS ECE has truly been enriching and impactful.”

“The NUS ECE journey has been a transformative experience, shaping both my academic and personal growth. Engaging in lectures and hands-on projects has fine-tuned my problemsolving skills. Beyond the classrooms, active involvement in the NUS USC has
broadened my horizons. Collaborating with peers in interdisciplinary projects, I have strengthened my technical acumen and honed my leadership and project
management skills. NUS EE provides the platform and ecosystem to help students to be well-rounded contributors to the ever-evolving world."

“My experience at NUS ECE was a thrilling journey of discovery and holistic growth. The curriculum integrates well with a wide range of special programs, such as the Innovation &
Design Programme that I took up. I was provided with opportunities and guidance to unleash my inner tinkerer (building a component for an actual satellite), which distilled theory into hands-on, workplace-ready problem solving competencies. Serving in the USC, ECE-Related Student Clubs and the orientation camp have pushed my boundaries to become more confident in project leadership and communication.”

“I have fond memories of my NUS ECE days, especially when working on group projects with my friends. I still remember working through the night for a project due the next day, stopping to nap at 7 AM for a couple of hours before the presentation. There were times when the product we built would inexplicably stop working minutes before submission, putting our engineering debugging skills to the test. Very nerve-wrecking then, but those were good times! I still cherish the experiences and friendships from those times.”

“I started without any background in coding or electrical work. From my first coding assignment to building advanced robots, every project was a step towards gaining knowledge and technical skills. A standout experience was with the Bumblebee Team. It was both an educational and thrilling adventure to Sydney and San Diego to deploy and compete with our self-developed robots. My role as the president of the 8th Undergraduate Student Council has sharpened my leadership skills and deepened my connection with the student community. Throughout this journey, I collaborated with peers who shared my enthusiasm for robotic, in a vibrant, collaborative atmosphere. NUS ECE has provided me with supportive professors who enriched my experience, guiding and inspiring me every step of the way. This experience transcended technical learning, immersing me in a community passionate about innovation and personal growth.”

“My NUS ECE journey has been incredibly rewarding. Courses like CG1111A and CG2111A have allowed me to delve into the practical aspects of the field, including collaborative projects where we built robots to navigate mazes. This hands-on experience seamlessly blends the realms of software and hardware, aligning perfectly with my passion for both disciplines. As a CEG major, I seized the opportunity to participate in the renowned CP2106: Independent Software Development Project, commonly known as Orbital. For our project, we created a 2D platformer game using Unity and C#, achieving the level of Apollo.”

“Choosing NUS ECE was a gamechanger. Its top-notch faculty and research facilities sparked my love for computing, turning every challenge into an exciting journey. The UROP programme and CG3002 Embedded Systems Design project were eye-openers, showing me how software and hardware seamlessly work together. The student exchange programme and a variety of informative talks broadened my perspective, teaching me cultural adaptability and valuable networking skills. NUS didn’t just boost my technical skills; it also shaped me into a great team player and enhanced my people skills in its diverse, energetic environment. Joining NUS ECE is more than an education — it’s a journey towards becoming both a well-rounded individual and a proficient engineer.”

“After my journey with NUS ECE, I started my dream job at Citi as part of the Technology Analyst programme, during which I learnt that my NUS ECE experience had equipped me with skills that worked to my advantage in my career. For example, one of the key skills I learnt during my academic years was the ability to learn quickly and apply effectively. This gave me the confidence I needed to pursue different technologies and business spaces within the organisation. The monumental experience gained from the Student Exchange Programme to Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology
(KAIST) enabled me to respect and appreciate diversity. In my current role, I now manage a team of 18 people spanning different geographies like Singapore, Poland, India and the UK. Navigating a global team is not easy and I am extremely grateful that NUS ECE gave me the solid footing I needed to achieve anything I aspire to.”
