The full-time (one-year) and part-time (two-year) Nanyang Fellows MBA programme serves as a welcomed sabbatical for busy executives from the public sector who take one year off work to reflect, rejuvenate, and embark on an intense yet enriching learning journey.

Full-Time and Part-Time Learning

The full-time, one-year programme​ format provides an unparalleled opportunity for the Nanyang Fellows to fully concentrate on their personal and professional growth, while learning alongside other highly accomplished peers who come ​from a variety of sectors. 

The Nanyang Fellows MBA programme is also available as a part-time, two-year programme for busy executives who are unable to take a gap year from work to pursue a postgraduate degree.

Global Learning

Besides learning at Nanyang Technological University against the backdrop of Singapore’s Smart Nation vision, the Nanyang Fellows MBA encompasses in-depth classes at two of the world’s most prestigious universities – the University of California, Berkeley, and Tsinghua University in Beijing. Advanced modules taught by global-minded faculty experts, together with curated company visits, will bring immersive experiences with distinctive East and West perspectives.

Leadership & Business Seminar Series

The Leadership and Business Seminar Series features Asia’s most prominent business and government visionaries, who share their invaluable insights on issues, opportunities, and challenges that confront today’s global leaders and their organisations.

Previous sessions have included :

• Dr Tony Tan, former President of Singapore
• Alan Chan, CEO of Singapore Press Holdings;
• Dr T.C.A. Raghavan, High Commissions of Embassy of India in Singapore;
• The Honourable Siale’ataongo Tu’ivakano, Former Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Tonga.​

Strategy Projects at Nanyang (SPAN)

Gain crucial hands-on knowledge and experience through the Strategy Projects at Nanyang (SPAN), a live consulting assignment that addresses a real-life challenge in an organisation, alongside company visits, insights from guest speakers, and collaborative learning with EMBA candidates.

Lifelong Bond

One of the key strengths of the Nanyang Fellows MBA programme is the small class-size. 

Only a select  group of 25-30 students are in each cohort.  It allows the Nanyang Fellows to get to know everyone in the class, forming close-knit friendships as they receive opportunities to interact with EMBA candidates in the year-long programme. 

This lifelong bond and supportive peer network are built on the Nanyang Fellows’ shared experiences, diversity and varied background that will extend beyond graduation and last a lifetime.​​​
