Experience Yale in Singapore
Experience an education like no other. At the inaugural session of Yale Young Global Scholars-Singapore (YYGS-Singapore), 200 talented high school students from around the world will have the opportunity to learn from distinguished Yale faculty, Yale students, and practitioners, all while experiencing residential life at the state-of-the-art Yale-NUS College in Singapore. In this immersive week-long program, students will participate in interdisciplinary lectures, elective seminars, and – new to YYGS – a series of skill-building workshops specially designed to foster leadership, develop communication and presentation skills, and enhance critical reading and writing. By combining year-long mentorship with a current Yale student and opportunities to engage with a host of like-minded peers, YYGS-Singapore will set a new generation of young leaders on the path toward continued success in high school, college, and beyond. Don’t miss the opportunity to experience all that you have come to know about the Yale Young Global Scholars, in one of the most culturally-vibrant and influential cities in the world.
