🤩We launched another mentoring programme! Last night, we successfully kicked off the pilot Springboard Group Mentoring Programme at Gaia, marking the start of an exciting initiative in partnership with NHRDN Singapore! This unique program brings together HR/ Business leaders with Nanyang Technological University Singapore final year students to foster meaningful group discussions on career guidance, job search strategies, and transitioning into the workforce. 🌍💼 Targeted at students interested in global organisations and roles in HR/ Business, the 3-months+ program aims to equip them with the skills, insights, and connections to boost their job search success as they prepare for their first full-time roles. 💪🏻 A big thank you to all our mentors and participants for making the in-person kickoff such a success. Here's to a fantastic learning journey ahead! #caontusg NTU Career & Attachment Office Mentoring SG

On 26 September, the Grand Finals of Dell InnovateFest 2024 showcased young talents from over 10 IHLs presenting impactful solutions. Jointly organised by MINDSG Ltd and Lions Befrienders, this marked the 2nd edition of Dell’s Hackathon-with-a-Heart, with the theme centred on solving social isolation challenges faced by persons with intellectual disabilities (PWIDs) and the vulnerable aged community.   As the saying goes, "Hackathons aren't just about coding, they're about solving real-world problems."   Our Nanyang Technological University Singapore team, Team MegaMinds, embodied this spirit by taking home the 2nd Prize with their project, Leo Buddy – an app designed to promote volunteerism among senior volunteers and combat isolation in Singapore’s elderly community. By fostering meaningful connections, tracking isolation, and rewarding participation, Leo Buddy provides a critical lifeline for isolated seniors, including features such as scam detection, a language translation camera, and an AI chatbot for easy navigation.   Once again, a huge congratulations to Team MegaMinds – Cheng Wen Tsao, Lee Han Ni, Jing Xuan Ong, Nicholas Sim, Tesha Ong, and Zi Yu Low – for their dedication and perseverance throughout this hackathon journey. Your commitment to pushing boundaries and developing impactful solutions has been truly inspiring. Great work, team! 👏   #caontusg #Hackathon #DellInnovateFest

Grooming leaders to tackle real-world challenges: 41 #NTUsg undergrads were selected to participate in the September 2024 run of the NTU PEAK Leadership Programme, which seeks to develop student leaders and hone their design thinking. The month-long intensive programme saw the students work collaboratively in interdisciplinary teams to address real-world sustainability and technology challenges, put on the table by industry partners including the A*STAR Institute of Sustainability for Chemicals, Energy & Environment (ISCE2), EDP Renewables APAC, JTC Corporation, Nxera (the regional data centre arm of Singtel's Digital InfraCo unit), and global marketing agency TEAM LEWIS. A team comprising Zi Hui Ng, Mythili Mulani Janak, Kimberly Atmadja, Tan Lance Riley Ong Fenix, and Yumin Park won the Best Ideation Award for their proposal to create a digital platform for retail malls to engage customers in sustainability programmes. The solution features purchase tracking, data collection, and personalised incentives, along with real-life showcases of users’ environmental contributions, to encourage customers to stay the course. Congratulations to the winning team! #NTUsgStudents #NTUsgEducation #NTUsgInterdisciplinary #NTUsgSustainability NTU Career & Attachment Office

So thrilled that Nanyang Technological University Singapore has been selected as a top 5 finalist for the Mentoring SG Corporate Excellence Award for the second consecutive year! This year, we submitted our application as #OneNTU, including programmes from Nanyang Business School NBS Academy for Career Excellence ~ACE~. It's an honour to be recognised for mentoring excellence alongside such remarkable finalists and as the only IHL! This achievement wouldn't be possible without the support of our colleagues, alumni network, industry mentors, students, and industry partners. Thank you for being part of this journey with us! 🤝 #caontusg Mentoring SG

After an intensive 1-month journey, 8 student teams from the 16th edition of NTU PEAK came together last Friday to present their solutions to business challenges in the areas of Sustainability and Technology, posed by our industry partners in A*STAR Institute of Sustainability for Chemicals, Energy & Environment (ISCE2), EDP Renewables APAC, JTC Corporation, Nxera, and TEAM LEWIS.   We were truly impressed by the effort and thoughtfulness behind each presentation, with every team presenting creative and innovative solutions in this short time. Tackling unfamiliar challenges is never easy, but when it came down to the final presentations, all 41 students delivered their solutions with confidence and handled questions from the judging panel impressively!   Following the presentations, students had the opportunity to engage in a CEO dialogue session, gaining leadership insights and posing their questions directly to the panellists.   NTU PEAK is all about exposing students to real-world business challenges that are highly relevant in today’s society. Working in interdisciplinary teams, students not only hone their leadership and problem-solving skills, but also gain valuable hands-on experience through site visits. Students also worked closely with their industry mentors throughout this one-month journey, gaining further insights into industry practices while being guided in developing their solutions.   Once again, great job to all NTU PEAK participants! Most importantly, a big thank you to our industry mentors, panellists, and students for their active participation and support in making this round of NTU PEAK a success.   🔔 Stay tuned for the next round of NTU PEAK!   Interested in being part of this programme?

Throwback to last Thursday, when five of our inspiring alumni mentors returned to NTU's Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information (WKWSCI) for another successful round of WKWSCI Human Library Networking Event!   The event gave our students a preview into real-world insights from our alumni mentors, exploring career pathways beyond traditional mass communication roles. Through small group discussions, they had the chance to delve into the unique experiences of each mentor, gaining new perspectives on the variety of opportunities that could be possible for them.   Read more about the event through our Career Coach, Angeline.
