Education
We offer degrees in four pillars (core areas of specialisation), which are developed to offer a modern engineering and architecture education that crosses traditional disciplines.

A welcoming polytechnic community
It was a wonderful experience to be an alumni of Singapore Polytechnic. As the school is right next to a train station, it was a breeze going to school. Staff and lecturers would go their extra mile to help students achieve their greatest potential and there are various extra curriculum activities that students can enrol in to pursue their individual hobbies. Singapore polytechnic is a school that would make sure every student feel welcomed and recognized, even after graduating I'd sometimes still keep up with the ongoings of the school and join their free alumni classes ;)
Top Singapore polytechnic experience
A great school, no wonder its a top Polytechnic in Singapore. My experience in Singapore Polytechnic was great, I made friends from different courses and class throughout my 3 years journey. Learnt so much from lecturers and glad that they support their students.
Architecture training in Singapore
A genuine polytechnic, with lecturers that actually care and nurture your passions. My diploma is definitely a mentally challenging one and requires alot of mental strength to get through it, however with the support of the great students and staff, I was able to communicate effectively my struggles as a student. The food is great with a variety of options as well.
