- This "first of its kind" program will provide many opportunities after graduation! The hands-on experience in Asia would prove valuable in business, NGO work, and government work. The intensive academic training would help greatly in preparing for graduate programs.
- Immerse yourself in a new culture and society to an extent not possible on a regular study abroad program.
- Conduct more in-depth work in your major course of study.
- NUS, which enrolls more than 23,000 undergraduates and has about 1,900 faculty, was ranked among Asia's top three universities and 19th worldwide by The Times of London.
- Live in Singapore, one of the world's most exciting and vibrant global cities; easy to navigate and a wonderful hub to explore the rest of Asia!
- "The joint degree program with NUS offers a UNC undergraduate the opportunity to immerse herself or himself in the study of Asian politics."
--Stuart Macdonald, UNC Department of Political Science
- "Pursuing the joint degree in History with NUS provides a unique opportunity for students to deepen and broaden their knowledge of Asian history. The large number of specialists in Asian history at NUS as well as the disciplinary focus on the History major that is required by the joint degree program enable students to explore the history of all regions of Asia--Southeast Asia as well as East Asia and South Asia--to a degree that would not be possible at just UNC or most other American universities."
--Miles Fletcher, UNC Department of History
- "The UNC-NUS joint degree program with a major in economics offers the serious economics student an incredible opportunity to study their field more intensively than would be possible at UNC alone. In the joint degree program, the student will take almost three times as many economics courses as they would as a major at UNC. The program will provide great preparation for students with an interest in doing graduate study in economics or public policy, and a year or two of this education will take place in one of the most exciting regions of the world from the point of view of the new global economy."
--John Stewart, UNC Department of Economics
