Message from the Dean

Prof Yang Jun

Here at Nanyang Business School, we draw on the strengths of being fully integrated into a world-class technological university, to develop adaptable, future-ready leaders for today’s fast-changing business world.

Our internationally recognised faculty excel in both research and teaching, bringing global perspectives and regional expertise to bear on the ASEAN business environment and beyond.

With this mindset, we have designed an interdisciplinary curriculum that combines cutting-edge research and technological innovation with industry-relevant business insights. Our curriculum fosters entrepreneurial drive while maintaining a strong focus on sustainability. Both our undergraduate and postgraduate programmes offer customisable learning paths with ample opportunities to hone leadership skills, nurture cultural intelligence, and gain real-world experience. Students can also benefit from global exposure through industry collaborations, local and overseas internships, and exchange programmes with top schools. We are excited to introduce field-specific workshops to impart specialised skills. NBS also offers a wide range of continuing education programmes, curated to help middle and senior-level professionals stay proficient with new technologies, remain relevant in the workforce, and grow as leaders.

In recognition of the excellence of our programmes, NBS has received accreditation from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) and European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) — the world’s most widely recognised quality assurance standards for accounting and business education.

As such, we are immensely proud of all who carry the mark of an NBS education. Our alumni network is more than 65,000 strong worldwide. Not only are they making a significant impact in business and society, they also continue an active engagement with NBS, providing mentoring guidance, internships, and career opportunities for NBS students, as well as connecting NBS with other institutions, industry, and government. NBS remains committed to pursuing alumni contributions and strategic collaborations with partner organisations in ASEAN and beyond. By providing valuable professional development and industry-relevant exposure, these opportunities not only enhance student employability but also empower individuals and businesses to bring about lasting change, for the better.

Ultimately, we at NBS stand ready to innovate through interdisciplinarity, lead with cultural dexterity, and transform for sustainability. We look forward to having you join us.
