From what started as an idea and then became a blueprint only a few short years ago, SMU has already developed into a university highly regarded for its quality programmes, faculty and students – not only in Singapore, but in the region and beyond. The so-called ‘SMU experiment’ in Singapore tertiary education has been looked upon with much curiosity and generated great expectations during this time. And this year the University celebrated one of its most significant and anticipated milestones: the graduation of our first batch of students. More than just graduates, these students – now SMU alumni – are regarded as articulate, assertive, professional, entrepreneurial, and socially responsible leaders who have already found their way into the workplace. What SMU has intended from the beginning to inculcate in our students through our curriculum and pedagogy has been validated.
