University Roadmap
Where to study?
Wondering if you should study overseas or in Singapore? An overseas education provides you with the chance to be exposed to different cultures and may offer courses that are not available. Studying in a local university, on the other hand, means that you still can stay close to your family and friends. Singapore universities are well-recognised globally. In fact, a survey by Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) in 2011 shows that NUS and NTU climb several places up the global rankings. Both are among the top 60 universities, with NUS among the top 30.
