Yes, students pursuing full-time studies with a valid ICA pass can work part-time along with studies.
Students are allowed to work part-time for a duration of 16 hours a week, while their course is on, & can work full-time over the duration of their academic vacations.
Students who wish to work full-time alongside their studies, would need a special work permit issued by government authorities.
It is worth noting though, that exchange students or those enrolled in an institute not approved by the education department of the Singapore government are not allowed to work either part-time or full-time.

It is a good idea to begin your introduction with an attention-getting statement. Give a quick introduction to yourself and briefly discuss your educational and professional background.
Your SOP's conclusion is equally as crucial as its commencement. It's best to avoid just repeating what was said in the introduction.

Statement of Purpose (SOP) for Singapore universities mostly refers to the admission essays or personal statements that institutions require students to submit when enrolling for a course or program. These essays describe the applicant's background, educational accomplishments, professional aspirations, and reasons why they are a suitable fit for the chosen course or program.
If you want to write a statement of purpose for a Singaporean university, it is important that you know everything about the course and the school and to modify your essay accordingly.
