What Alumni Are Saying

NUS laid open the inner working for an entire business set up, from HR to marketing, and this gave a lot of confidence to a guy like me who has been holed up in a engineering job to solve bigger problems with appreciation of multiple perspectives.

NUS MBA allowed us to experience world class management education in Asia, the fasest growing region globally, and to expand our network to the most active MNCs and decision makers in this region.

NUS has a good program, really good admin staff, and some highly experienced faculty, overall a diverse class of students with a nice well planned study program. Also a key advantage is having relationships with top universities for exchange programs.
