Diploma in Design

The Diploma in Design (N12) is the only polytechnic diploma in Singapore that offers specialisation tracks in both Architecture and Product Innovation within one award. Students build design theory, studio practice and technical skills in creativity, problem-solving and design management, then specialise from Year 2 onward. Teaching combines hands-on studio projects with industry projects and internships across the three years, and the Architecture track carries accreditation from the Board of Architects Singapore that gives advanced standing at partner universities. Graduates move into architecture, product design and design-consultancy roles in design and non-design sectors, or progress to related design or architecture degrees locally and abroad.
