h the joint PhD programme with NTU, one of the leading technological universities in the world," says the Technion president, Professor Peretz Lavie. "Combining the knowledge and talents of our institutes will ensure the high quality and excellence of the scientific and technological leaders in Singapore and Israel."

The first batch of students under the joint PhD programme is expected to enrol in January 2011, with each university offering up to five places a year. Candidates, who will be selected by NTU and Technion, will have to meet the prevailing admission criteria of both universities.

Students will be co-supervised by faculty members from both institutions and have the opportunity to spend time at the host institution. Successful PhD candidates will be jointly issued a PhD degree under the seals of Technion and NTU. Entry to the programme is expected to be competitive as the programme offers opportunities for top-level research in addition to a unique cultural learning experience.

Apart from Technion, NTU has established joint PhD programmes with other top universities including UK's Imperial College, London in May 09, Technische Universitt Mnchen (TUM), Germany in Aug 09, and with Sweden's Karolinska Institutet in Sep 09.
