multimedia packages, allowing you to carry out self-paced
e-learning, made all the more accessible via Internetenabled PCs throughout the campus; enthusing you for
self-directed lifelong learning. This successful e-learning
framework is made possible by our Accumulated
Experience Sharing (AES) innovation, an in-house
repository of knowledge and experiences gained from past
industry projects completed by NYP students and staff.
Currently, we have over 5,000 cases captured in AES , each

information for a wide range of projects representing
different Schools and industries, often beyond your own
scope of study.
MODULAR & CREDIT-BASED ACADEMIC SYSTEM

system. This means you can choose areas of study to match
your interests and aptitude, and adapt your academic
workload to suit your pace of learning.
Each course has a combination of study units or
modules which are broadly classified into:
Core Modules

within your chosen study programme.
Complementary Electives
These give you opportunities to pick up skills and
knowledge to complement your main discipline
of study.

discipline of study allows you to expand your options
in the pursuit of personal interests and in acquiring
knowledge to help you grow as an individual.

design concepts and mechanisms to applications, to make them more
attractive, fun to use, and user-friendly.
This project requires the students to consolidate all their best works
in both print and softcopies including a show reel; arranged in a
professionally designed and customised portfolio that meets industry
expectation; and to prepare them for presentation to any prospective
employer. At the end of the course, the students are expected to
exhibit a portfolio of their best works showcasing their strengths and
specialisation in the annual Diploma Show.

NYPi | NANYANG POLYTECHNIC INTERNATIONAL
NYPi signed an MOU with the Directorate of Technical Education Bangladesh, on the training and capability
development of polytechnics in Bangladesh.
445
ver the years, we have established a strong international presence.

With the setup of Nanyang Polytechnic International (NYPi) in August 2007, we have
been able to bring the world to NYP and NYP to the world.
NYPi focuses on enhancing the NYP brand name in

technical education and training beyond Singapore.
It contributes to the strengthening of NYPs existing
international partnerships and collaborations, as well
as creates more opportunities for students and staff to
be engaged in international exchange and attachment
programmes. NYPi also facilitates the conducting of
courses for international participants who wish to learn
more about NYPs successful pedagogic and management
concepts such as the NYP Teaching Factory Concept, and
those who wish to emulate the Teaching Factory model.
NYPi is a vehicle to extend the NYP Teaching Factory
and other concepts, NYPs expertise and NYPs education
and training programmes into the region and beyond.
NYPi contributes towards the development of NYP
into a global polytechnic of distinction. This was endorsed
by Minister for Education Heng Swee Keat in his speech
delivered at the dinner on 30 March 2012 to celebrate NYPs
20th Anniversary: NYP has made significant progress
in twenty years, to deliver a world-class, high-quality
polytechnic education to our young generation today.
To date, NYPi has conducted courses for more than 16,000
international participants from over 40 countries worldwide.
It offers programmes in NYP concepts for technical and
vocational education and specialised areas in information
communication technology, multimedia and digital
animation technology, advanced manufacturing technology,
mechatronics technology, electronics engineering, life
sciences, nursing and healthcare, business management,
institute management and pedagogy.
NYPi offers a wide range of manpower development
programmes for overseas professionals, where training is
customised to meet the specific requirements of the client
446
organisations and participants. These programmes support

the Singapore Governments initiatives, as well as meet the
training needs of the various overseas organisations.
Participants of the training programmes include senior
government officials, academics, principals and specialist
staff of technical colleges, and senior management staff
from the public and private sectors. They have consistently
given excellent feedback on the quality of training received,
the professionalism and dedication of NYP staff, and the
friendship and hospitality they have experienced.
These programmes provide opportunities for our staff
to visit cities in regional countries and to interact with their
senior officials and professionals. This allows them to better
understand the countries social, economic and political
trends and developments. As a result, our staff are able to
incorporate a regional and international perspective into their
teaching, helping our students gain a better appreciation and
understanding of different cultures and practices.
In addition, students have opportunities for overseas
exposure from the four student project centres in China,
which have been set up with the support of NYPi. They are
located in Beijing, Suzhou, Guangzhou and Chengdu. NYPi
and NYP aim to inculcate in our students a global mindset
and inspire them to take on the challenges of a fastchanging world.

ORGANISATIONAL EXCELLENCE JOURNEY
hile striving for excellence in teaching, curriculum,

environment and administration, NYP has pioneered innovative
business concepts and processes; and is among the first educational institutions
to be awarded certifications in various areas of business excellence.
SINGAPORE QUALITY AWARD
PS PREMIER AWARD
In 2012, the Public Service Division conferred on NYP
the Public Service Premier Award, which recognises the
sustained efforts of public agencies to achieve and maintain
pinnacle levels of Organisational Excellence. NYP plays an
important role in manpower development by providing
industry-relevant polytechnic education and training. It
pursues excellence by building on foundations anchored on
organisational culture, concept, capability, and connection.
Moulded by our values and shaped by our heritage and
history, the NYP culture unites our people for a common
purpose. As a Polytechnic committed to producing
graduates who are innovative and enterprising, we stay
up-to-date with advances in science and technology.
We also develop effective and innovative approaches
to succeed in our endeavours as well as invest in our
connections and collaborations with key industry players,
government agencies, and other educational institutions.
NYP was conferred the Singapore Quality Award

(SQA) in 2011, the highest award for business
excellence in Singapore. This award is presented
to organisations which have demonstrated
outstanding management capabilities and
delivered superior performance and results.
The awards assessment framework is aligned
with those that are adopted in the United States,
Europe, Japan and Australia, reflecting the best-inclass practices of world-class organisations. As part
