Study in Singapore
For a University of London Degree

Internationally renowned qualifications

The University of London International Programmes delivers degree programmes developed by the Colleges of the University of London, which have an international reputation for the quality of their teaching and research. Today there are over 12,000 students studying in Singapore for a University of London qualification.

The majority of our students in Singapore are studying courses developed by the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and Goldsmiths. You can also browse our full range of undergraduate programmes (for holders of 'A' levels, or equivalent qualifications) and postgraduate programmes or use the 'Find a Course' facility. If you don't hold 'A' levels we offer several Diploma programmes taught at local institutions in Singapore that lead directly on to our degrees.

Qualifications valued by employers

Our programmes provide an opportunity to obtain a highly-valued degree which opens doors in your career. Our alumni gain prestigious jobs in banks, multinational companies and professional services firms.

Why does Foo Kon Tan Grant Thornton employ University of London graduates?

Ong Soo AnnWe find University of London graduates who studied at Singapore Institute of Management a good fit for our firm. Coming from a diversity of cultural and national backgrounds, these graduates seamlessly blend into our culture. An added bonus is that some University of London graduates have chalked up invaluable work experience before pursuing their academic degrees. In a nutshell I would say they are every employer’s dream of an employee. They possess a certain level of maturity, willing to learn, independent and street smart. Professionals need a full range of skills apart from technical proficiency.

Ong Soo Ann is a partner at Foo Kon Tan Grant Thornton, the Singapore member firm of Grant Thornton International. This is one of the world’s leading accounting and consulting firms with 2,600 partners in over 100 countries.
