Student Reviews
Representative reviews"A great decision"
Honestly, one of the best decisions I've made. The best part: the teaching staff are genuinely world-class and accessible. If I'm honest, would like to see more industry guest speakers in later years. On the city — the city operates like a well-oiled machine — transport, food, safety are top-tier. Overall, if you're considering PhD in Biological Sciences at National University of Singapore, I'd say go for it.
"Genuinely worthwhile"
