Abstract

The Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) is established in collaboration with MIT to advance knowledge and nurture technically grounded leaders and innovators to serve societal needs. This will be accomplished, with a focus on Design, through an integrated multi-disciplinary curriculum and multi-disciplinary research. Besides MIT, SUTD is also partnering Zhejiang University (ZJU) from education to research. In this talk, we will give an overview of SUTD and introduce several opportunities for students and staff from ZJU like SUTD-PhD program, visiting students, and research collaboration. Lastly, we will conclude by introducing my research group.
