Nanyang Technological University (NTU) Singapore has introduced the NBS Global Leaders programme, which marks the sixth signature initiative of the institution aimed at cultivating future business leaders. This programme aims to equip students with a comprehensive business education that addresses the complexities of a global marketplace.
Programme Launch and Structure
Set to launch in August 2025, the NBS Global Leaders programme is available to students enrolled in business or accountancy degrees. A key component of the curriculum includes a semester-long exchange at the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley, where participants will focus on enhancing cultural intelligence and expanding their international networks.
