The Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the Nanyang Technological University Singapore (NTU) have set up a flagship partnership. The agreement strengthens TUM's cooperation with NTU and its global network in Southeast Asia.
The partnership, signed by NTU President Prof. Ho Teck Hua and TUM President Prof. Thomas F. Hofmann, aims to strengthen cooperation at all levels, from education and research to innovation, entrepreneurship and lifelong learning.
"As TUM President, I am proud of our long-standing and very successful collaboration with NTU at our TUM Campus Singapore," says Thomas F. Hofmann. Therefore, the flagship partnership with NTU was the next consequent step. "This strengthens our global network of excellent, technically oriented universities," says Thomas F. Hofmann, "and brings our German Engineering with Asian Relevance approach, which we have successfully pursued in Singapore for over 20 years, into the network via NTU. In this way, we can also specifically tackle the major challenges facing humanity in one of the most dynamically growing regions of the world, Southeast Asia, together with our partners." In addition to NTU, TUM's flagship partners are Imperial College London, Tsinghua University and the University of Queensland.
New quantum partnership
To strengthen the strategic partnership and presence in Singapore, NTU and TUM, together with the National University of Singapore (NUS) and the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, have submitted a proposal for a new program on quantum sovereignty and resilience to the National Research Foundation of Singapore. This application is supported by the Dieter Schwarz Foundation. The foundation is funding one professorship each in quantum science at NTU and NUS. At the same time, researchers from Singapore will be connected via the Joint Global Research Hub at the TUM Campus Heilbronn, which includes other top-class partners such as HEC Paris, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, University of Oxford, Stanford University and ETH Zurich in addition to TUM.
In addition to the quantum partnership, TUM will expand its cooperation with Singapore in the areas of artificial intelligence, health and biomedicine, materials science and aerospace. A joint Bachelor's degree program with NTU is also intended.
