Director's Message

Welcome to the School of Engineering (SEG) – where Engineering Education is designed, developed and delivered by Engineers.
 
Here, learners from secondary schools and ITE can start building careers in engineering, while industry professionals can continue to enhance competencies in engineering.
 
At SEG, we are committed to preparing you for the future, by fostering innovation and creating opportunities for you to achieve your aspirations.
 
Strong Heritage
SEG draws its strengths from the heritage it was built on: the French-Singapore Institute (FSI), German-Singapore Institute (GSI) and Japan-Singapore Institute (JSI), which were established by the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) to provide engineering training and education for Singapore’s evolving industrial landscape.
 
Industry Relevance
Our extensive industry linkages, together with our industry-relevant capabilities and curriculum, have produced graduates who are well received by the industry and universities, both locally and abroad. SEG’s state-of-the-art teaching facilities and laboratories, in addition to our strong emphasis on real-world learning experiences, will provide you with a good head start in your pursuit of an engineering career.  
 
WorldSkills Benchmark
We are proud of our students who continue to return home with numerous titles from the WorldSkills Competitions (often referred to as the 'Youth Olympics of Skills'). Donning national colours since 1999, SEG students have represented Singapore at host cities around the world, including Leipzig, Germany; Abu Dhabi, UAE; São Paulo, Brazil and Kazan, Russia. Their achievements are testament to our international standards skills training.
 
Global Opportunities
SEG’s robust relations with the industry translate into internship placements and projects with over 250 local and global companies, as well as overseas programmes in more than 20 countries including North America (US, Canada), Europe (UK, Germany, France, Switzerland) and Asia (China, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam). These serve to expand your training and perspectives beyond the campus.
 
SEG offers you numerous opportunities to develop yourself holistically – gain leadership skills, acquire an innovative and entrepreneurial mindset, excel in competitions, intern overseas, and more. You will also build friendships and connections that will be beneficial and enriching, even after graduation.
 
I invite you to visit our webpages, and discover all that you can accomplish when you join our SEG Family.
