Overview
The CIEE-Singapore: Arts + Sciences program at the Singapore Management University allows students to immerse themselves in bustling university life at one of Asia's top-ranked universities. Modeled after the Wharton School, SMU is both AACSB and EQUIS accredited and offers a wide range of academic disciplines, not just business and management.
Singapore has become a must-see destination for travelers around the world. With its vibrant culture, exquisite cuisine, world-renowned shopping, and largest collection of Southeast Asian and Singaporean art, it’s no wonder students and travelers are flocking there.
One degree north of the equator in Southeast Asia, Singapore blends Malay, Chinese, Arabic, Indian cultures and religions. Since gaining independence in 1965, Singapore has become a flourishing city-state that excels in trade and education and is considered a model to developing nations.
