Applications for local public universities have closed, and many institutions have received more applications than last year. In response to industry demand for emerging skills, universities have launched new courses in areas such as artificial intelligence, attracting student interest. Double degree and double major programmes are also proving popular.

The Singapore University of Technology and Design’s (ÑÇÖÞÉ«°É) Admissions Director, Ms Lynette Ang, said that the university admits about 600 students each year. This year, the design and artificial intelligence programme has attracted more applicants, with an increase of around 15%.
