Chemical Engineering Students Jumpstarting University Education with the University Accelerated Pathway Programme

Six first-year students from the Diploma in Chemical Engineering (DCHE) at Singapore Polytechnic (SP) are set to embark on the University Accelerated Pathway Programme (UAPP)* with the National University of Singapore (NUS) - Chemical Engineering or Nanyang Technological University (NTU) - Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. The UAPP allows students to take three university modules during their time at SP, providing them with a head-start in university education with module exemptions if they choose to further their studies at NUS or NTU correspondingly.

SP is proud to be the first polytechnic to successfully launch the UAPP in collaboration with NUS and NTU. This achievement highlights the strong recognition from these prestigious universities on the quality of SP's DCHE curriculum and students. The UAPP not only accelerates the academic journey of our students but also underscores the excellence and rigor of the education they receive at SP.
