Strong research capabilities and activities are essential part of our approach to education and training. Students and course participants are exposed to mature reflections on the results generated through the research projects in which SDWA members are involved, and also to results from research done elsewhere. Similarly the students will be expected to contribute themselves to the increase in knowledge through their own research projects done as part of their degrees.
Currently, SDWA spearheads development of new double M.Sc. program in Hydraulic Engineering and Water Resources Management in collaboration between the National University of Singapore and the Technical University Delft. The programme is based on an institutionally innovative concept under which students spend one year of study in both Singapore and The Netherlands and receive M.Sc. degrees from both Universities.
At the Singapore-Delft Water Alliance, we aim to provide our students with a wide-ranging education that will nurture their talents and prepare them to be outstanding researchers.
