The ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Global Singapore team with President Hugh Brady

³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Global Singapore is one of the university’s four science and technology hubs, connecting London with four major regions to advance our Science for Humanity mission. Academic-led and cross-faculty, each hub builds research networks and partnerships, catalyses new applications with industry and innovators, engages our alumni community and opens opportunities for talent. 

At ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Global Singapore, our scientists and innovators work closely with university, industry, government, and third-sector partners across the ASEAN region, and maintain deep connections to ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ, a global top ten university. 

Our impact in Singapore

³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Global Singapore conducts world-leading research at Singapore National Research Foundation's Campus for Research Excellence and Technological Enterprise (CREATE), Singapore's international campus for science and technology. Our programmes address some of the most pressing challenges facing humanity in areas of strategic importance both to Singapore and to the wider ASEAN region. These include health, energy, sustainability and emerging technologies.  

As part of CREATE, ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ operates as a high impact research entity and lab and office complex. Our research programmes run in partnership with Singapore’s leading universities, government agencies and industry. These include:  

  • IN-CYPHER: developing solutions to secure medical devices and healthcare systems and advancing the tools needed to protect future medical devices and healthcare systems. 

  • NH3-SOFC: decarbonising the maritime industry with solid oxide fuel cell technologies that convert green ammonia into clean energy.

  • AI for Science: bringing AI and science experts together to accelerate the translation of cutting-edge research into real-world impact.
  • PREPARE: developing approaches to pandemic preparedness and future infectious disease threats. 
  • : convening academia, industry and policymakers across the region to advance sustainable finance through research, education and engagement.

Our impact across ASEAN

³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Global Singapore serves as ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ's strategic gateway to Southeast Asia. Southeast Asia is home to more than 680 million people, fast-growing economies, dynamic science and tech eco-systems and diverse environments. The hub serves as a launchpad for ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ researchers seeking to develop partnerships and collaborations in the region. 

Indonesia 

³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ's Faculty of Medicine is partnering with the Indonesian government to strengthen its healthcare education and research capacity and support the development of 10 new medical universities. The collaboration will support curriculum development, joint research, teaching standards, and university and hospital planning. 

The Centre for Low Carbon Transport – a collaboration between world class researchers from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia and ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ – is spearheading research on low carbon technologies for transport applications. 

Malaysia 

Malaysia is a longstanding strategic partner for ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ across science, engineering and medicine, fostering collaboration in areas including sustainable transport, clean energy, aviation innovation and environmental conservation.   

The Brahmal Vasudevan Institute for Sustainable Aviation was established following a £25 million gift from Malaysian alumnus Brahmal Vasudevan (Aeronautical Engineering 1990) and his wife Shanthi Kandiah.   

The PETRONAS Centre for Engineering of Multiphase Systems (PETCEMS) is an innovative collaboration between Malaysia’s state energy company PETRONAS and ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ to promote greener and more advanced energy systems.   

The Stability of Altered Forest Ecosystems (SAFE) project, in partnership with Universiti Malaysia Sabah, is one of the world’s largest ecological experiments providing insights into how forest ecosystems are affected by logging and deforestation.   

Each year the Malaysian government supports hundreds of scholars at ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ through scholarship schemes, including from Malaysian government training agency MARA, the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Education.
