NUS Overseas Colleges

The NUS Overseas Colleges programme targets NUS undergraduates with the academic ability and entrepreneurial drive, keen to be immersed as interns in start-ups located in leading entrepreneurial and academic hubs of the world.

At the same time, they will study entrepreneurship related courses at highly prestigious partner universities. The aim is to cultivate and nurture them into enterprising, resourceful, independent self-starters who eventually blossom into successful entrepreneurs.

Today, there are colleges in Silicon Valley and Philadelphia (USA), Shanghai (China), Stockholm (Sweden), and Bangalore (India). These five colleges are established in leading entrepreneurial hubs involving up to 250 students a year.


Internship Programme

All NUS Business School students are aware of the importance and benefits of an internship programme. Although the internship programme is not a compulsory part of the curriculum, many NUS Business School students complete more than one internship during their tenure in NUS Business School. This adds value to their studies and also prepares them for the world of work.

 

Consulting Practicum

To enhance the relevance of the business undergraduate program and to allow our students to apply concepts and theories they have learnt in school into the corporate world, students can opt to work on an academically supervised consulting project with an organization, to fulfill part of their academic requirement.
