What Programmes and Disciplines Does NTU Singapore Offer?

NTU Singapore (Nanyang Technological University) offers programmes across four broad study levels: undergraduate, graduate by research, graduate by coursework, and continuing education and training. Its disciplines span engineering, business, science, humanities, arts, social sciences, education, and medicine. The exact programme list, admission route, and fees depend on the level and the specific college or school — check the relevant admissions page before applying.

Study levels at a glance

Disciplines and how they are organised

NTU groups its academic offerings into colleges and schools rather than a single faculty list. The university's own description names engineering, business, science, humanities, arts, social sciences, education, and medicine as its subject areas. Programmes are delivered through these colleges and schools, so the fastest way to confirm whether a specific subject is offered is to browse the college or school that covers it.

Undergraduate programmes

Undergraduate admission is organised by qualification type, which tells you what you need to prepare:

• Singapore-Cambridge GCE A-Level
• Diploma from a polytechnic or equivalent Singapore institution
• International Baccalaureate Diploma
• NUS High School Diploma
• International qualifications
• Part-time programmes
• Adult Learners Scheme
• Aptitude-Based Admissions
• Transfer applicants

Each route has its own admission guide, so pick the one matching your current qualification. Scholarships, awards, tuition fees, tuition grants, miscellaneous fees, and financial aid are handled separately under Financial Matters, and there is an Indicative Grade Profile (IGP) plus a dedicated page for returning NSmen.

Graduate programmes

Graduate study splits into two tracks:

• Research programmes — apply through the graduate research admission guide.
• Coursework programmes — apply through the coursework admission guide; this includes NTU Masters, joint-graduate programmes, and insight articles about specific offerings.

Financial matters for graduate students are separate from undergraduate ones and include scholarships, tuition fees, service obligation, financial aid, and post-graduate incentives. An Incoming Graduate Student Guide covers practical preparation.

Continuing education and training

NTU also runs continuing education and training, aimed at learners who want to update skills rather than complete a full degree. This sits alongside the undergraduate and postgraduate offerings under the Education section.

Research, rankings, and scale

If you want to judge research strength before choosing a programme, NTU publishes:

• University rankings (world and Asia)
• NTU at a Glance
• Enrolment by college
• Research grants and revenue
• Faculty and staff population
• Undergraduate and graduate student populations
• Graduate output (first degree and higher degree)
• Annual reports

These figures let you compare colleges and see where research funding and student numbers are concentrated.

Practical next steps

1. Decide your level: undergraduate, graduate research, graduate coursework, or continuing education.
2. Open the matching admission guide and confirm your qualification route.
3. Check Financial Matters for tuition fees, grants, and aid at that level.
4. If you are comparing programmes, use the college and school pages plus Facts & Figures to see research activity and cohort size.
5. For campus logistics, NTU lists visiting information including campus bus shuttle, barrier-free access, smart car park system, car park information, EV charging, NETS top-up machines, and car-sharing.

One caveat: programme availability, admission requirements, and fees change by intake and by college. The pages above are the authoritative source — confirm details there rather than relying on a general overview.
