US Universities Vs Singapore Universities

         Well this is the comparision that most people tend to make while applying for their masters in Singapore. Since we have many friends who do their masters in USA we take that as a reference while applying to Universities in Singapore. But let me clear up one thing if you are comparing NUS/NTU with mediocre american universities then let me tell you my friend you cannot be more wrong. NUS/NTU stand equivalent and infact better than most of the TOP Universities in USA and research here is better than most of the universities worldwide if that is one of your concern.

            One of the reasons that make NUS/NTU unique is that they have collaborations with almost all the other top universities in the world ranging from MIT,Stanford,Oxford,cambridge HKUST, Tshingua, IIT's  and what not. Other things that work in their advantage is their funds for research and industry collaborations.

           One of the facts that i would like to state is that NTU is the 3rd most cited university after MIT and stanford when it comes to research. So before you compare any universities know the facts.
