Internships
We recognise the importance of preparing our students to “plug and play” in their future career roles. Internships are an integral part of experiential learning to reinforce classroom learning.
Our internship programmes provide NUS Science students multiple opportunities during their candidature to take up internships at local and international enterprises.

These programmes provide experiential learning on-the-job for students.
- Broadening perspectives: Develop awareness and knowledge of the industry, which reduces on-the-job training requirements so that students can become workforce-ready upon their graduation.
- Planning ahead: Select elective coursework that integrates studies and career goals.
- Translating scientific principles: Interpret, analyse, evaluate and develop useful information on the workplace. Students will become adept in applying classroom learning to perform assignments and solve problems in a real-world work environment.
- Developing network: Build up personal and professional networks before graduation.
