Designed by Alan Turing as a model for human thinking, computers has the potential to do all that humans know how to do. Just as mechanical systems enhance human strength, computing systems enhance human thinking, enabling people to do many things that are previously impossible. Computers have been rapidly changing the world; we now have planet-scale systems such as the World Wide Web, instant access to almost all recorded information, systems that discover knowledge in large corporate databases, embedded computers that monitor and control all types of systems ranging from cars to the environment, and computers that do weather prediction, astronomy, biology and other amazing things.

Knowledge in computing will equip you well to work in many areas. If you are technically inclined and have broad interests, then the combination of computing knowledge and the broad-based education of the University Scholars Programme (USP) will make you particularly suited to be an agent of change who can revolutionize the way things are done.

The USP programme equips you to work across disciplines and cultures and provides you with interaction with outstanding peers in many disciplines. It is also well aligned with our research and technopreneurship programmes: the Special Programme in Computing for research and the NUS Overseas College for technopreneurship.
