Seeking a global, future-focused education? Singapore’s Transnational Programs Offer Top-ranked Universities' Degrees Tailored for Indian Students’ - Times of India

Global education has truly come of age when Indian students are presented with abundant choices for studying abroad. Through the transnational education (TNE) model, institutions can partner with universities worldwide, enabling students to access global education closer to home. Leading this initiative, the Singapore Institute of Management (SIM) stands out among Singapore’s private education institutions with its global education arm, SIM Global Education (SIM GE).This model offers international students an exceptional opportunity to earn degrees from top-ranked universities worldwide, all through a single institution, in Singapore.
With 60 years of experience, close to 200,000 graduates, and an annual enrolment of 16,000 students including 5,200 international students, SIM has firmly established itself as a global learning institution, with a commitment to lifelong learning.

Transnational Education at SIM

Under the TNE model, SIM GE partners with many prestigious universities in Australia, France, the United Kingdom, and the United States to offer more than 120 programmes, ranging from Foundation and Diploma programmes to Undergraduate and Postgraduate degrees. These programmes cover a wide array of sub-disciplines and academic levels, providing students with the flexibility to choose the education path that best suits their aspirations. Each programme is designed to ensure students become career-ready, supported by highly qualified lecturers and support systems. Beyond academics, SIM offers a holistic student life experience, featuring a sprawling campus, diverse student clubs and councils, and robust student support services. These initiatives not only foster character development but also equip students with leadership, organizational, and interpersonal skills.

Harsh Shah, an Indian graduate with a Bachelor of Computer Science (Digital Systems Security) from the University of Wollongong, says, “The lessons learned, and the knowledge gained during my university life is invaluable and gave me a head start in my Cyber Security career. The life of an SIM graduate is very wholesome, allowing you to grow as a well-rounded individual.”
The best part about these programmes is that they can cost up to 30%-40% less than pursuing the same degree onshore. Additionally, the cost of living in Singapore is lower compared to countries like Australia and the UK. With transfer and exchange opportunities available with the university partners’ home countries, SIM GE students can enjoy the best of both worlds, combining affordability with a rich international experience.
Talking about SIM’s Transnational Education, Tricha Vatsa, Country Manager (India), SIM, says, “In today’s changing landscape of education, there is a growing acceptance for Transnational Education in India as it aligns well with our National Education Policy (NEP 2020), which is supportive of the collaborative model of teaching and learning. The desire for global exposure, high-quality education, and enhanced career prospects at an affordable cost are strong motivating factors for our students to consider pursuing these prestigious degrees at SIM under the TNE partnerships.”
The TNE model is highly focused on the overall experience of the student so that they have a truly global education experience while growing personally as a student studying abroad, through the support of the institution and their peers. With all things considered, SIM GE is an ideal choice when it comes to transnational education in Singapore. SIM GE was also awarded the EduTrust Star certification award on August 20, 2022. This award is conferred to private education institutions that have attained a commendable level of performance in managing their institutions and providing an outstanding quality of education and welfare for their students. It is also a recognition of outstanding achievement in their field of work.
