enriching; where you’ll be immersed in a holistic learning
environment that promotes academic excellence, creative
thinking and personal growth. Beyond academics, you’ll also be developing
your personal talents – whether in sports or the arts – through our many
exciting activities and special interest groups.
And when you graduate, you’ll be a professional ready to embark on your
chosen career; an innovative and enterprising individual primed to succeed,
all while seeking lifelong learning. Journey with us to expand your
knowledge, skills and perspectives – in and out of the classroom.

LEARNING AT NYP
A WIDE RANGE OF COURSES
To meet the demands of different interests and
aspirations, the various Schools in NYP offer a
wide range of courses in Business Management,
Chemical & Life Sciences, Design, Engineering,
Health Sciences, Information Technology and
Interactive & Digital Media. These courses are
developed and reviewed regularly in close
consultation with the industry to ensure timeliness
and relevancy in fast-paced Singapore.
INNOVATIVE TEACHING & LEARNING
Learning at NYP happens in an integrated
environment that emulates the real world. This
involves recreating authentic industry
environments and facilities within the campus, so
that you train with the latest equipment and
technologies. You will have the opportunity to get
a taste of real work processes through
attachments and participation in industry-
commissioned projects, supervised by experienced
staff. This means that when you graduate, you’ll be
well equipped with the knowledge and skills that
are relevant to the industry of your choice, or in
the discipline of your further education.
MAKERSPACE@NYP
This exciting facility seeks to challenge ingrained
mental limits and encourage you to think out of
the box. The space is filled with equipment like
laser-cutters, 3D printers, video and sound
recording booths, and even sewing machines and
drills. Why? So that you can visit our MakerSpace
and create anything your imagination dreams up
– from keychains, cosplay outfits and 3D art
sculptures to prototypes for your projects. Users
of our MakerSpace are encouraged to tinker and
learn beyond their curriculum. Coaches from
myriad backgrounds and expertise are there to
guide and offer a helping hand to students.
E-LEARNING & THE AES®
The subjects in your curricula have been
developed into multimedia packages, allowing
you to carry out self-paced e-learning. This
successful e-learning framework is made possible
by our Accumulated Experience Sharing (AES®)
innovation – an in-house repository of knowledge
and experiences gained from past industry
projects completed by NYP students and staff.
It is made all the more accessible via PCs located

reputed design institutions worldwide. As a
student, you will be encouraged to benchmark
your own knowledge and skills by participating
in international competitions to pit yourself
against the best, and make your mark on
the world.
• Overseas Community Service Projects
Beyond the industry and the academia, you can

just locally, but overseas as well. NYP takes part
in many service-learning projects that require
your specialised skills to improve lives,
opportunities and facilities for those in need.
Our various community service groups

will have access to information from a wide
range of projects representing different Schools
and industries, often beyond your own scope
of study.
MODULAR & CREDIT-BASED ACADEMIC SYSTEM
Courses at NYP adopt a modular and
credit-based academic system. This means you
can choose areas of study to match your
interests and aptitude, and adapt your academic
workload to suit your pace of learning.
Each course has a combination of study units
or modules that are broadly classified into:
• Core Modules: These ensure you receive a firm
foundation in your central discipline of study.
• Prescribed Electives: These help you to
develop specific focus and fields of
specialisation.
• Complementary Electives: These expose you
to subject areas outside your main discipline
of study.
• General Studies Modules: For an all-rounded
education, we also provide opportunities for
learning subject areas outside your
main discipline under the General Studies
Modules. For instance, you can learn about
the science and chemistry of make-up, take
up a new language or learn a new sport.
GLOBAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR NYP STUDENTS
Travel, learn and broaden your horizons. We have
built strong collaborations with renowned
overseas institutions and key industry partners,
creating extensive opportunities for you to study
and work outside of Singapore. Such overseas
stints give you first-hand experiences in a cultural,
educational and business environment that is
markedly different from our own. This
international exposure can take several forms:
• Attachment and Exchange Programmes
You have the opportunity to go on overseas
attachments or study visits to the US, Europe,
the UK, Australia, China and other parts of Asia,
to help you develop a global mindset. Through
programmes with foreign universities and
institutions, you get to exchange ideas with
local students and professionals, and gain
valuable insights into international
developments and joint project ventures.
• International Competitions
NYP students are chalking up wins in
prestigious international competitions such as
WorldSkills, the Microsoft Imagine Cup and the
We’ll prepare you for international exposure
through our Foreign Language Centre, which
provides full-time NYP students with language
training in French, German, Japanese and
Korean. Lessons are not confined to the
classroom as they are often conducted through
interactive e-learning and mobile learning.
You may also participate in the cultural and
sports activities, exchange programmes and
overseas study tours that the four foreign
cultural clubs organise.
YOU’RE IN GOOD HANDS!
QUALIFIED & EXPERIENCED LECTURERS

multifaceted and immersive, with caring lecturers

fields. Tap into their wealth of real-world
