If the deciding factor of which vasity to enter hinges on the
quality of babes, then i suggest you go overseas.
As for teaching methods, i would have to agree that SMU, being the
latest addition in Singapore, may develop students using a more
interactive approach compared to NUS or NTU. However, it does not
make it better .
Ppl still hold the misconception that the name of the school gives
it prestige rather than the student population. Yale, Oxford and
Brest are well known because of the students who propser after
studying there, not the name itself. Harvard business sch did not
become famous overnight. They are just as likely to collapse if a
series of scandals and corruption rocked the institutions.
NTU just introduced a pioneer aerospace course, is developing the
biomedical engineering division and has constructed a new facility
for life science research. Their strength remains engineering, with
NBS a close second. Su Guan Eng is clearly building on the efforts
and vision of previous president Chiam Tao Soon, which involve
pushing NTU into a full-fledged university within 5-10 years.
NUS's expansion plans are likewise in a similar direction. The
completion of their UCC has seen their Arts faculty elevated in
importance. New, points-free hostels are being introduced to entice
more foreign students to stay on campus.
As for SMU, their location must be extremely tempting, coupled by
the promise of a world class university design.
And should they decide to build hostels in the same location, one
wonders how the administration will keep the peace.....
