On Campus

The Doctor of Engineering (EngD) programme aims to offer a qualification which, whilst being equivalent in status and challenge to the PhD, is more appropriate for those pursuing professional rather than academic careers. EngD is an earned doctorate, just like the PhD, but is based on industrial R&D rather than academic R&D.

Programme Features

The EngD focuses on research of industrial importance, endorsed by a supporting company which hosts the student as an employee for the duration of the EngD candidature. The student is jointly supervised by an NUS academic and a technology expert in the company. To train students for the commercial workplace, courses on engineering management are mandatory. Students trained in the EngD programme are therefore well-prepared for a career in industrial research.
