Imperial College London and NTU collaborate to offer joint Ph.D. programs in engineering and science
Date:4/6/2009

Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and Imperial College London have signed an agreement on 6 April 2009 that will enable these two leading universities to offer highly attractive joint Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) programmes in engineering and science.

The NTU-Imperial College Joint PhD degree programme will commence with PhD programmes in Bioengineering and Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. It will subsequently be extended to PhD degrees for all engineering and science disciplines. Successful PhD candidates shall be jointly issued a PhD degree under the seal of Imperial College and the seal of NTU.

This collaboration is also a milestone for both NTU and Imperial College as this is the first time that they are offering a joint PhD programme with a partner university.

The programme is expected to be highly competitive as it offers participants the opportunity to be exposed to the research environments in two highly advanced universities in Singapore and UK. Synergistic combination of research resources, such as world-class talent and cutting-edge research facilities, is expected to draw the best students and faculties to the programme.

The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the joint PhD programme was signed at NTU, by Sir Roy M. Anderson, Rector, Imperial College and Dr Su Guaning, NTU President.

"We are delighted to partner Imperial College London, a world renowned institution in education and research on this very exciting joint PhD programme. The collaboration will benefit our students and facilitate and strengthen the research collaboration between the two universities through joint PhD student education. We are confident that this joint programme, which will commence with programmes under NTU's School of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering (SCBE), will prove to be successful. We want to see it flourish to include all of NTU's engineering and science disciplines," says Dr Su.
