The Kent Ridge campus of the National University of Singapore will become a live test bed for low-carbon technology in a collaboration with Keppel Infrastructure.

Four projects have been chosen to jump-start the on-campus collaboration, which will be called the “low-carbon living laboratory”.

These projects include a hybrid power grid to ease the integration of renewable energy resources, novel electric vehicle charging strategies, district cooling systems and enhanced seawater desalination.

NUS deputy president for research and technology, Professor Chen Tsuhan, said: “The NUS Kent Ridge campus will serve as a vibrant living laboratory, where innovative solutions are tested in a realistic operational environment before they are deployed at a larger scale. These technological capabilities will in turn help enhance the climate resilience of our campuses.”

Nanyang Technological University has set up the EcoLabs Digital Twin Co-Innovation Lab and the NTU-Arrow Invent Joint Lab to assist start-up companies that are focusing on green technology, and also assist Small and Medium Enterprises commercialise products.

The labs will help start-ups as well as SMEs refine and test their technology and connect them to larger companies to help them scale up.

The two labs began work last year and were launched under the EcoLabs Centre of Innovation for Energy programme, which is a collaboration by NTU, Enterprise Singapore and the Sustainable Energy Association of Singapore.

Minister of State for Trade and Industry Low Yen Ling said the EcoLabs programme is part of Singapore’s larger strategy to support start-ups and SMEs as they translate their technology into products on a commercial scale.

Help smaller companies communicate their skills training needs to enable educational institutions to respond rapidly

Education Minister Chan Chun Sing has said that Singapore must innovate to help smaller companies communicate their skills training needs so that training institutions can respond quickly.

Mr Chan said SkillsFuture Singapore has plans to partner these organisations to identify skills that are in demand and to develop skills-based career pathways.

Mr Chan noted that many companies want to train their workers but do not know how to articulate this need. He said the National Centre of Excellence for Workplace Learning (Nace), which is led by Nanyang Polytechnic, has done much to strengthen support structures for workplace learning.

Last year, Nace also launched the National Workplace Learning Certification scheme, he added. It recognises progressive organisations that have structures and processes in place for good training practices at the workplace.

Secondary schools still start the day at 7.30am, in spite of permission to start later

Although Singapore’s schools have the flexibility to decide daily start times, many secondary schools still expect students to be in school before 7.30am.

Of these, 60 schools said students had to assemble for the flag-raising ceremony by 7.30am, and eight schools started between 7.30am and 8am. Twelve schools had staggered start times throughout the week.

The issue of schools starting at the crack of dawn has raised concerns over the years about young students having too little sleep.

Education Minister Chan Chun Sing said MOE does not dictate school start times, other than saying schools should not start before 7.30am.

Half of graduates from Singapore’s private education institutions found full-time work within six months of graduation

According to the latest graduate employment survey recently released by SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG), about half of fresh graduates from Singapore’s private education institutions found full-time work within six months of completing their examinations.

Overall, 85.3 per cent of private university graduates found work, including part-time or freelance jobs.

However, the survey continued to find that job prospects for PEI graduates lag behind their peers from autonomous universities. The overall employment rate for fresh graduates from the 2021 cohort in autonomous universities was 94.4 per cent while the full-time permanent employment rate was 84 per cent.

The poll also showed that the median gross monthly salary of PEI fresh graduates in full-time jobs was $2,989.

Nanyang Technological University is hosting a new biannual distinguished lecture series at the Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine.

This lecture series is part of the distinguished visitors programme, which is funded by a Singaporean in the finance industry. The Singaporean, who wishes to remain anonymous, donated $500,000, with the Government matching his donation for a total of $1 million.

The school’s former dean, Professor James Best, gave the first distinguished lecture last month.

NTU president Subra Suresh said the distinguished visitors will address thought-provoking issues beyond medicine as well.

New training programme at ITE College East will teach low-code software development to students and lecturers

A new training programme and centre at ITE College East will teach mobile and Web application development to Institute of Technical Education students, under a newly-signed memorandum of understanding between app development platform OutSystems and ITE.

Students and lecturers will be trained in low-code software development, which is a method that requires little to no coding to build software. OutSystems will teach the students to quickly build applications with modern user interfaces and data.

The firm has been working with ITE students and staff on pre-trials since January to develop three mobile and Web applications for the healthcare sector. One of the student-developed applications can predict a user’s heart disease risk using artificial intelligence.

45 per cent of pupils who joined the Gifted Education Programme over the last five years live in Housing Board flats

11 April 2022

Education Minister Chan Chun Sing has revealed that about 45 per cent of pupils who joined the Gifted Education Programme (GEP) over the last five years live in Housing Board flats. In addition, the pupils selected for the GEP came from 60 per cent of Singapore’s primary schools.

Mr Chan said that schools offer a range of programmes for the diverse aptitudes and learning needs of their students, including various learning support programmes for low-progress students, as well as the GEP and school-based provisions for high ability learners in primary schools.

The GEP caters to the needs of intellectually gifted students. Pupils are identified for the programme through a two-stage exercise in Primary 3 and selected pupils are invited to join it in Primary 4.
