Highly qualified faculty who are experts in their field and a diverse campus.

Tips: NTU Singapore is a thriving multi-cultural hub comprising students and faculty from diverse backgrounds. For Indians, it is an active community that soon feels like home upon arrival. There are student bodies that will help you with accommodation. I received the NTU Research Scholarship. Students apply for the scholarship as an option when applying for the programme itself. The scholarship amount during my tenure (2017-2022) was SGD 2500 per month. NTU Singapore is a great place to pursue your degree, either coursework-based or research-based. As one of the top-ranked universities in the world for Engineering and Technology, I would recommend it as a very strong option for future studies.

NTU has a lot of internship opportunities for students.

Tips: The Nangyan Technological University is a stressful place. If you are someone who cannot keep working in very minute conditions, then NTU is not the right place for you. However, if you are up for the challenge, then NTU is perfect for you. You can successfully get financial aid and scholarships as well if you apply early. Having good grades in both pre-school and high school is required. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.

Likes (Post study jobs): The biggest blessing being in NTU is the post-study jobs. They are so flexible and guaranteed that even if you maintain decent grades you can end up getting a very high package and credit. Job timings and work hours are relaxed, and healthy family time is given to nearly every employee.

Dislikes (Indian Food): I gave NTU a low rating for food options because I am Indian and from Uttar Pradesh. I don't like their food, and the food options are very selective and not so tasty. Even though there are many Indian options available, I am not satisfied with the quality of their food. Nothing is better than some lobster-like food of Singapore.

Nanyang Technological University is good but leads to a stressful life.

Tips: Before joining this college students should know that it is a very stressful environment and highly competitive. You need to be caught up with every week's work or else it piles up really quickly. The studies are very fast-paced and very little time off is given. The studies' difficult level is not much but the amount of things to do on top of the stress of the competition is very difficult to deal with.

Likes (Internships): NTU has one of the best internship cultures I have ever heard of. It has provided NTU students with every possible opportunity a student can ask for to get an internship. I did a work-study programme wherein we could intern while studying in the college. There are countless programmes like this and one of the best internshipship portals where you can find listings of available internships in various companies and apply from their portals too.

Dislikes (Indian Food): While there are a lot of food options on campus, Indian food is limited to 2 Indian stalls. The quality of food is not good and it is quite expensive also. I can cope with it ever since I tried other cuisines but I have a lot of Jain friends who still struggle with day-to-day food even after 3 semesters.

4.9

Top university of Singapore

Tips: It is one of the top universities in the world. Engineering courses are good but they are taught in an academic way that students can learn on their own. A bit more focus should be given towards industry orientation. Also, an employment pass is required to work here and sometimes that becomes difficult to get as a graduation student fresher. But yes if you are from Asia like me and you want to study any engineering course in a top university, this is the place.

Likes (Safety): Singapore is very safe in fact it is one of the safest countries in the world. I and my friends never faced any security related issues whether inside or outside the campus. The university has helpline numbers in case there is any emergency, for me it was never required to dial it up so I have no idea what the response rate is but I think it would be quite good.

Dislikes (Internships): The university does pave the way to get internships. There is a career portal through which a student can apply to the relevant internships but this doesn't always work well even though there are career guidance offices available to guide again a student has to look out for other options outside. The university has a good reputation outside so it isn't much difficult to get an internship.

Highly stressful environment at prestigious NTU.

Tips: NTU has a strong academic focus, emphasizing project-based learning and real-world problem-solving. The teaching pace is fast and keeping up with coursework requires diligence. Additionally, Singapore is an expensive city and the financial and academic pressures can be intense. However, if you manage these challenges, you’ll come out stronger and better prepared for the future.

Likes (Internships): NTU actively promotes a strong internship culture. NTU was very accommodating, providing the necessary documents for my internship in India last summer without any objections. I am enrolled in a work-study program that allows students to intern while studying. NTU also has an excellent internship portal with listings across Singapore for all major subjects, complete with work descriptions and qualification requirements. This makes it easy to apply directly through the platform.

Dislikes (Indian Food): While there isn't a wide selection of Indian food on campus, there is one Indian stall offering a variety of Indian dishes. However, it tends to be more expensive than other local food options. I am comfortable with any food and have adapted to the local cuisine. However, many of my Indian Jain friends face challenges in finding suitable food options.
