School Tribute

As one of the three pioneering engineering schools when the university first started as Nanyang Technological Institute in 1982, many international faculty of academics who are strong in teaching as well as research and professional experiences, had served in the School over the years. We would like to present due recognition and dedicate this page to our former leaders and long-serving faculty who have offered their extended service and contributed to the success of the School.​​​
