International Fellowships
Mitacs Globalink Research Internship is a competitive initiative for top ranked international undergraduate applicants from the following countries and regions: Australia, Brazil, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Mexico, Taiwan, Tunisia, Ukraine, United Kingdom and the United States to participate in a 12-week research internship under the supervision of Canadian university faculty members in a variety of academic disciplines, from science, engineering and mathematics to the humanities and social sciences.
The India Connect @NTU (IC@N) Visiting Research Student Programme for 2 to 6 months for undergraduate and Master’s level graduate students from India is the flagship programme of IC@N. This research programme was introduced in 2016 to enable students of Indian universities to pursue their research interests at NTU by working under the supervision of NTU faculty, developing a strong research expertise in specific research areas, experiencing a multicultural life, developing a strong network of friends and a better understanding of Singapore.
The Khorana Program is a collaboration between the Department of Biotechnology (GoI), University of Wisconsin (UW) Madison, USA and the Indo-US Science and Technology Forum (IUSSTF) to nurture contacts between students of biotechnology and biomedical sciences from India and the US, through a joint training programme in biotechnology and allied areas. The programme acts as a key catalyst to encourage students to take up research as a career.
