SMU has an emphasis on generating rigorous, high-impact and relevant multi-disciplinary research that addresses issues of global relevance.

SMU’s city campus is a state-of-the art facility located in the heart of downtown Singapore, fostering strategic linkages with business, government and the wider community.
Funds raised from ICAP Charity Day 2014 in Singapore supported bursaries for two full-time undergraduate students studying at SMU. As a consequence of coming from a disadvantaged background, without support from ICAP these students would not have been able to study at SMU.
