This is a testament to our steadfast commitment to deliver world-class business education and prepare our graduates for today's complex global business landscape.

Besides the networking opportunities, we will continue to deliver an education that balances academic and experiential learning, uniquely tailored to the individuals for their personal and professional growth, so that our students can accelerate their careers and add greater value to the business world.
“It is immensely rewarding that our MSBA programme has entered the top 10 QS Business Masters Rankings. This would not be possible without the strong ties with industry partners which enable our students to enhance their competencies and contribute effectively to the advancement of the business analytics sector”, he concluded.
QS Senior Vice President Ben Sowter said, “NUS is undoubtedly one of the world’s elite higher education institutions and, unsurprisingly, this enduring and rigorous commitment to excellence extends to its business arm where its MBA programme is among the world’s very best, placing an emphasis on work-readiness and thought leadership.”
He continued, “NUS’ prowess spans other areas of business education, specifically its Master in Business Analytics, which is among the 10 best courses of its kind in the world. Again, it produces some of the world’s most employable graduates, providing excellent value for money and networking opportunities underpinned by a diverse student and faculty cohort.”
Sowter added, “This is particularly impressive given the exponential growth, intensifying competition and high desirability for qualifications in this area, with business and data analytics skills among the most in-demand for business graduates today.”
