Science Research Programme
The Faculty of Science, in collaboration with the Gifted Education Branch of the Ministry of Education, started the Science Enrichment Programme in 1988. The idea was first mooted by Dr Tony Tan Keng Yam, then Education Minister, to enable very capable students who aspire to a higher level of challenge to undertake projects under the supervision of academics and scientists in real research environment. The programme has since become the most premier research attachment programme among students in the schools and junior colleges.

In 2010, the programme was further streamlined to two more sub-categories: SRP-Engineering and SRP-Computing to better reflect the varieties of projects undertaken under SRP.

 

We believe that SRP will continue to provide the experience of exploratory research to students preparing to go into their university studies. Since the launch of the programme, Shaw Foundation has generously contributed towards the funding of the programme. The programme could not possibly take on also without the invaluable contributions, in time and expertise, from mentors and their assistants from the various NUS faculties, our partner research institutes and government agencies.
