Graduate Certificate in Integrated Design

The Graduate Certificate in Integrated Design is linked to the Master of Design in Integrated Design at NUS. It rests on the idea that design today is an integrative practice that crosses boundaries, and its teaching centres on the Integrated Design Studio. The certificate runs in the August semester and again in January. Participants take Integrated Design Studio 1 and Integrated Design Studio 2, each scheduled on Mondays and Wednesdays in the afternoon, together with the current MDes cohort. Normal candidature is 12 months, and the certificate is awarded on completing 12 units with a result of 2.50 or better on a 5.00 scale. Applicants should hold a bachelor's degree in a relevant discipline or have relevant professional experience, and they apply through the NUS online application portal. Graduates can pursue the alternative pathway into the Master of Design in Integrated Design.
