At the recent Singapore Geospatial Challenge 2015 award ceremony on 29 July 2015, two teams from Department of Geography walked away with Distinction and Excellence awards for the University category.

It was also announced that the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) is collaborating with the Department as well as Nanyang Polytechnic to drive the development of geospatial competencies.

This is in line with the Department’s newly launched programme for prospective graduate students. The programme, Master of Science in Applied Geographic Information Systems (GIS), will commence in August 2016 and aims to equip Bachelor holders and relevant professionals with the latest knowledge in cutting-edge technologies and developments in GIS and its applications.
