Supporting Tools & Methods
The tools and methods shared during the Summer School will teach you how to obtain, process, and integrate information much as you would have to know when entering university. With this, we offer you an ideal preparation for the work you have to do in your first semester.
The group work will also provide you with valuable experience on how to organize yourself in a team of diverse, yet likeminded peers, how to divide the task into smaller sub-tasks, and how to bring them back together at the end to form an integrated effort
Your Programme Structure
The Summer School structure consists of input sessions, application sessions, and social events
1) Input sessions
The input sessions will equip you with information that will help you complete your assignments. This will be done, for example, in in-class lessons or guest lectures. The topics discussed relate to the input blocks listed above.
2) Application sessions
Naturally, you will also apply what you have learned. You will be offered time for group work or small workshops. You will also gain practical insights through company visits and learn how to interact with company representatives.
3) Social events
Of course, socializing and having fun will not be missing. Through selected events, you will get to know your fellow students better and make contacts for life. But rest assured that you will have plenty of time to explore Singapore and its nightlife on your own.
