In today's relentlessly innovating global economy,
knowledge is not pursued in isolation. It
is advanced by the global community of scholars
and knowledge workers operating at the forefront
of ideas. Singapore is consistently positioned towards the top in global and regional rankings of the factors that are meaningful to businesses. Moving forward in this global arena, NUS is building intelligent partnerships with
universities worldwide and taking on strategic
roles in global consortia that will continually
strengthen synergies between the processes
of creating, imparting, and exploiting knowledge.
NUS aspires to be a dynamic connected knowledge
community imbued with a "no walls"
culture which promotes free flow of talent
and ideas. Individual members of our community
enjoy access to diverse opportunities for
intellectual and professional growth and
in turn add value to NUS becoming a global
knowledge enterprise.
Our vision calls for infusing a spirit
of enterprise throughout the NUS community,
for members to be resourceful and alive
to opportunity. Learning and living in NUS
- a microcosm of the global knowledge community
- will foster an entrepreneurial and global
mindset as well as hone the requisite skills
and habits to thrive in a fast-changing
global economy with no walls.
NUS maintained its standing in the top
quartile of the world's best 100 universities
in the 2007 Times Higher Education Supplement
World University Rankings. NUS was ranked
33rd in the world and amongst the top three
universities in Asia.
