A great global engineering college for education, research and innovation.
To nurture creative and entrepreneurial leaders through broad-based, research-infused engineering education and to advance knowledge and create innovative and sustainable solutions for the benefit of industry and society.
The College of Engineering (CoE) was established to catalyse synergy and best practices among the six Engineering Schools by promoting collaboration and sharing of resources within and outside of the constituent Schools and the University.
With exciting new knowledge and innovations developed through collaborations across disciplines, the College actively pursues strategic alliances with reputable peer Institutions and industries locally and internationally to achieve excellence in education and research.
The six Engineering Schools and their respective Divisions are as follow:
Over the years, the College of Engineering has evolved into an established international engineering institution. Its comprehensive and holistic educational programmes are rigorously and regularly ensure alignment with the ever-changing technological trajectories, economy and industry. These, coupled with the strategic opportunities created to hone students’ skills, and their emotional and cultural aptitude, aim to nurture a new generation of enterprising engineering leaders – a star force to navigate and overcome global economic challenges, and technological and societal rapids.

Programme: PhD Thesis title: Drug Release Mechanisms from Bioerodible Polymers for Stent Application
Though far from my native France, my time in the school of Materials Sciences and Engineering (MSE) at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) was an immeasurably enriching experience on many levels. My graduate studies at NTU allowed me to understand big challenges and solve problems. Based on the high standards for the quality of instructions and research, it also provided me with models for my career. I can say with confidence that it opened many doors for me. Therefore, I am deeply grateful to have graduated from NTU.
