Temasek Polytechnic
Students thrive and learn in an environment which is fun and exciting, tinker with cool state-of-the-art equipment that is the very latest in industry, and work with some of the most creative brains in design education today.
Because the design industry is very much a project-based one, learning in the design school is also very hands-on in nature. This includes ‘live’ projects where you work with the best in industry. Students will not only develop their creative and technical skills, they will also hone their own project and time management abilities, thus preparing them for a career in an industry driven by briefs and deadlines.
It’s not all studio and classroom work. Design is global in nature and so the learning experiences will reflect that. Students will participate in industry-driven dialogue, seminars and workshops, go on field trips, overseas exchange programmes, and an industry internship programme, locally or overseas.
The Temasek Design School is well-recognised in the local and international arena as an award-winning institution. Their students have won many prestigious international and local competitions. In addition, our accomplished external examiners from reputable overseas institutions have consistently attested to the very high quality of our courses. It is not surprising, therefore, that our graduates have been accorded advanced standing by the very best degree-granting design institutions for undergraduate and postgraduate studies in Australia, UK, USA, Europe and other parts of the world.
