Hey guys, I'm currently doing an undergrad BSc in Bioscience with Chemistry in TAR UC, plan to take the dual award by Campbell University from USA.

My BSc is a general bio degree, therefore I plan to specialize into biomedical science in my MSc and PhD. My dream is to study in Europe, therefore I short listed some university mainly in UK. USA universities are under my consideration also since my Campbell cert will do me good in venturing into it...

But I'm not affluent enough to pursue my postgrad with self fund, living expenses in UK or USA will be a problem, therefore Singapore seems to be another good option. However, I'm confused over the information provided on NUS... I'm not sure how the NUS syllabus work for postgrad, undergrad from them is confusing also, since they run on a modular form.

So do you guys think that Singapore is a good opt ? How is the job opportunities as a biomedical scientist in Singapore? Is it easy to gain a PR there? Is the research environment in Singapore good? My sister is working in Singapore too.

Hi liewstone, in my opinion Singapore is indeed one of the better places in the world to pursue a PhD in biomedicine or pharmacology (my field). NUS ranks very highly in the pharmacology field (best in Asia). My impression is that Singapore is also a good place to pursue scientific research as a career but I cannot confirm this.

Thanks for the reply.. Been waited for days... May I ask that when you're working in a pharmaceutical company, what you do in the lab is routine ? Will your company support any kind of research?
