Singapore today is one of the most dynamically developing countries in Southeast Asia. Singapore is known not only for its high standard of living and social security, but also for its significant progress in the development of such areas as health care, medicine and education.
Unlike many small Asian states, Singapore combines traditional oriental culture with typical features of the Western mentality, such as social tolerance, interest in the personality of each person, desire for education, science and business development.
This is partly due to the state’s colonial past, which is still multinational and welcoming to foreigners.
Singapore is famous for a variety of educational programs for international students. Moreover, you can choose a program depending on your previous education, including both school and full-fledged university education.
Education here is usually in English. Then the education you get can be continued in almost any other country if you wish: for example, you can get a bachelor degree in Britain or Australia.
The higher education system in Singapore consists of five polytechnics, three universities, a national teacher training institute and an institute of technical education, the main purpose of which is to train specialists in postgraduate programs.
The National University of Singapore, formed in 1980 by the merger of the University of Singapore and Nanyang, has already gained a glowing reputation in the world. The Times recently ranked it among the top 20 of the world’s 200 best universities.
Singapore uses 12-year English system of education, that’s why an applicant from Russia needs additional year of academic preparation: either a year in a domestic university or preparatory courses in an English-speaking country or Singapore in colleges (Junior College).
The requirements for admission to the Master’s degree are not different from those in other English-speaking countries. These are diploma of higher education, TOEFL or IELTS, CV, references, motivation letter, GMAT (for MBA).
