The Master of Science, Integrated Sustainable Design (MSc ISD), is a one-year, post-professional programme that addresses the global sustainability challenge by tackling both the building and urban scales, and integrating knowledge from the disciplines of architecture, engineering, landscape design, planning, urban design and biological science. The curriculum delves into material, technical, spatial and social systems, linking them directly to the urbanisation of Asian cities. Students come from varied disciplinary and cultural backgrounds; most are from Asian countries, with a few from Australia, Europe, North and Central America.

After graduation, many MSc ISD alumni return to their core disciplines as sustainability-trained professionals. A degree from NUS enhances their standing and marketability; the MSc ISD experience gives them a newfound capability to frame problems from an Asian perspective. With these, they are well placed to carve out unique positions in the building and planning sectors in the region. Some graduates segue into research, education or specialist consulting. Others have gone on to pursue PhDs.
