Learning is a<br />
two-way street at<br />
NYP. Lecturers don’t<br />
just teach; they have lively<br />
discussions with us too. Being<br />
able to approach them any time<br />

helped me develop my<br />
passion for design and<br />
become a better<br />

a wealth of industry<br />
experience that we draw<br />
from to make learning<br />

students’ innovative spirit.<br />
When I was a student here, my<br />
lecturers inspired me to excel<br />
professionally and now,<br />
I want to inspire my<br />
students in the<br />
same manner!<br />
The campus is<br />
constantly refreshed,<br />
with facilities upgraded<br />

Joey’s three years at NYP<br />
can only be described as<br />
action-packed. He was not just<br />
on top of his studies, he also<br />
took on leadership roles in three<br />

leadership and networking<br />
skills, improve on his public<br />
speaking abilities and<br />
pick up planning skills.<br />

Manage your time well by<br />
drawing up a daily plan and<br />
sticking to it.<br />
Balance out the stress of your<br />
studies by joining at least one<br />
CCA, where you can build a<br />
strong network of friends.<br />
Being a mentor has been very meaningful<br />
as I see the growth in those entrusted<br />
to me. I’m now more deliberate in engaging and<br />

Caring Environment<br />
My mentor,<br />
my friend<br />
Transitioning to new surroundings can be tough and having someone to<br />
support you can be a great help. At NYP, you have a personal mentor<br />
to confide in, as well as lecturers whom you can turn to<br />
Ms Lee was very generous<br />
with her time and was<br />
constantly asking for updates on<br />
our business projects regardless of<br />
how tired or busy she already was.<br />
She often got us drinks and<br />
biscuits, especially when she knew<br />
we hadn’t had breakfast. These<br />
little acts demonstrated how much<br />
she truly cared. My class even<br />
nicknamed Ms Lee ‘mama’ because<br />
we liked her so much and even<br />
now, I make it a point to keep in<br />
touch with her.”<br />
Chan Ying Ying<br />
Diploma in Business Management (Retail)<br />
Class of 2015<br />
Helping students excites<br />
and inspires me and it’s<br />
hardly a chore when they display<br />
good attitude and are eager to<br />
learn. Ying Ying was enthusiastic<br />
in class, self-disciplined and<br />
always on time, which is a rare<br />
virtue nowadays. Though she<br />
lacked some business creativity<br />
and required a lot of guidance in<br />
the beginning, she was receptive<br />
to ideas and advice given to her,<br />
and she had the drive to succeed.<br />
These are qualities that will serve<br />
her well and ensure success<br />
in whatever she chooses to<br />
take on.”<br />

ASEAN Youth Camp<br />
Kun Yao was one of five student<br />
delegates from Singapore who<br />
attended the 2015 ASEAN Youth<br />
Camp, held in Nakhon Pathom<br />
Province. The biennial camp<br />
aims to strengthen bonds in<br />
the ASEAN region through the<br />
younger generation. Kun Yao<br />
had the opportunity to engage<br />
with peers from different<br />
countries and experience the<br />
art of Thai drawing and painting. Through the cross-cultural<br />
interactions, he learnt to appreciate different languages and social<br />
and cultural norms, and found it especially interesting to discover<br />
that many of them had a keen interest in ‘Singlish’.<br />
Though we all come from different ASEAN<br />
countries, we share more similarities than I<br />
had thought. It was a great time of learning<br />
from one another.”<br />

One of the highlights of Maybelline’s time at La Trobe University<br />
was attending a student tutorial group session and participating<br />
in a lively discussion on the different types of infections and their<br />
treatments. She also visited hospitals in Melbourne to observe the<br />
local healthcare settings and processes, as well as understand<br />
more about the unique challenges they faced.<br />
Every student should not miss out on going for<br />
exchanges or study trips. The new experiences<br />
you’ll have while studying in a different country and<br />
learning from another culture are simply priceless.”<br />

when he bagged a silver medal in the IT<br />

Lions-Netherlands Exchange<br />
While on the inaugural Lions-Netherlands Exchange — a<br />
collaboration between NYP and the University of Applied<br />
Sciences (UAS) in Leiden — Mardhiyah spent two action-packed<br />
weeks going on excursions and field trips around the Netherlands<br />
with a team of UAS students, including taking part in a molecular<br />
cooking demonstration by a Michelin-starred chef. These<br />
outings helped them in their challenge to develop a showcase<br />
that highlighted a future smart city where technology is being<br />
harnessed for food sustainability, such as the one being built in<br />
the Dutch city of Almere. Working with her Dutch hosts on the<br />
project brought out cultural, behavioural and even sleep pattern<br />
differences, but it was an experience Mardhiyah would repeat in<br />
a heartbeat.<br />
The world becomes your<br />
classroom when you’re living<br />
and travelling so far away from home.<br />
I’ve become more independent and<br />

Arts, Hong Xuan was involved in the production of a number of<br />
projects. She has seen a marked improvement in her ability to<br />
wield software that is key to an architect’s job, after having to<br />
use various software to create and beautify design drawings.<br />
She also actively proposed the use of different designs and<br />
material finishes for some projects.<br />
The chance to be part of the team and get involved in design<br />
projects from the start was particularly enriching and she believes<br />
it will give her a competitive advantage when she joins the<br />
working world in future.<br />
Honing creativity ABROAD<br />
Hong Kong was home for Joyce for three months when she<br />
was doing her attachment with Carbon TV, a boutique motion<br />
graphics and design studio. There, she experienced first-hand<br />
the dynamic nature of an independent studio and how vital<br />
teamwork was. It was also a chance to put what she had learnt in<br />
NYP to practice under the guidance of Carbon’s creative director<br />
Tereza Tan and art director Jacky Lo, and to be involved in the<br />
filming of a channel ad for an actual client was an eye-opening<br />
experience for her.<br />
The internship has helped Joyce professionally and personally<br />
as she gained a better understanding of the skills required to<br />
excel in the digital media industry and where a career in this field<br />
would take her.<br />

Gitu spent six exciting months at Saint Pierre, a French fine<br />
dining restaurant in Sentosa Cove, learning the ins and outs of<br />
running a successful food & beverage (F&B) establishment under<br />
the tutelage of prominent chef and restaurateur Emmanuel<br />
Stroobant. She was involved in kitchen service and operations<br />
at the front of house, where she picked up valuable tips on<br />
food-and-wine pairings.<br />
Gitu got a real taste of how hard F&B professionals work, but<br />
it did not put her off the F&B industry. She is currently studying<br />
for a bachelor’s degree in culinary arts at the Culinary Institute<br />
of America and credits her work experience at Saint Pierre for<br />
helping her to snag a place at the prestigious school.<br />

There is no better place to learn the ropes of managing money<br />
properly than at Singapore’s central bank, Monetary Authority<br />
of Singapore (MAS), which holds the strings to the country’s<br />
pockets. Adrian spent nearly three months as a vacation trainee<br />
at MAS’ Financial Markets Development Department and enjoyed<br />
the exposure to a vibrant work environment where decisions<br />
and projects that are implemented have an actual impact on the<br />
wider society.<br />
Under the guidance of his warm and approachable senior<br />
colleagues, Adrian also found himself improving on his written<br />
and spoken communication.<br />

further education — just like these graduates<br />
My journey to a degree in nursing has<br />
not been easy and I’m very grateful to<br />
NYP for giving me a platform to shine and grow.<br />
Initially, I had some fears about keeping up<br />
academically as I had worked as a nurse for a<br />
couple of years before enrolling in NYP, but my<br />
wonderful and nurturing lecturers were very<br />
encouraging. They drilled into me the need to<br />
assess patients swiftly and effectively, and the<br />
experiences they shared have been invaluable.<br />
I was able to do well in my studies and be<br />
awarded a full scholarship for my nursing<br />
degree, allowing me to fulfil my dreams and<br />
deliver the best care to my patients.”<br />

At NYP, I didn’t just learn about<br />
product design. I also gained<br />
marketing and planning expertise. My<br />
lecturers had worked in the industry<br />
before so they were in tune with the<br />
industry’s processes and requirements,<br />
and they often shared with us the little<br />
things that could make a difference in<br />
getting our designs and ideas accepted.<br />
They also offered very practical advice,<br />
such as time-efficient strategies that<br />
came in very useful when I went on<br />

A Running Start with PFP<br />
Through lectures, tutorials and project work in the Polytechnic Foundation<br />
Programme (PFP), I learnt to study smart and understand various concepts,<br />
rather than simply memorising them for exams. When I started Year 1, I was already<br />
familiar with the academic system at NYP and could settle in quickly while my peers<br />
were still adapting to their new environment. With PFP, I bypassed ‘O’ Levels, got<br />
direct entry into my chosen diploma course and a head start in my studies.”<br />
