Singapore NTU (Nanyang Technology University- Main Office-HR) Full time

At Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), we are a young and research-intensive institution ranked among the world's top universities.

The Interdisciplinary Collaborative Core (ICC) Office oversees new curricula that focus on key transferable skills and global challenges using interdisciplinary approaches to learning. In today's rapidly changing work environment, our graduates must constantly acquire new knowledge and competencies, adapting to multiple career changes throughout their lifetimes.

We strive to provide a holistic education grounded in future-ready skills that prepares our graduates for lifelong learning and global citizenship.

This requires an education that transcends traditional discipline boundaries to address the nexus between theoretical and practical learning; 'hard skills' and 'soft skills'; and core curriculum and co-curriculum.

In response, NTU launched a new curriculum structure in 2021 featuring a range of Interdisciplinary Collaborative Core (ICC) Courses.
