JCU Singapore provides the opportunity for you to study in Singapore
and in Australia and yet still remain as a Singapore based student
paying your fees in Singapore currency. This is a unique program in Asia
and is only able to operate because the university operates across both
countries. The program is designed to ensure you get the best possible
outcomes from their years of study with the university.
Globally recognised Australian degree
You will graduate with exactly the same globally recognised degree as
students who study at James Cook University in Australia.
Time saving
You can complete your Bachelors degree in 2 years and your
Masters in 1 year.

support your learning. These include lecture and seminar rooms, library
and associated study facilities, computer laboratories, and access to

access to LearnJCU, our technology based learning management
system, all students are provided with an iPad** when you commence
your course. Additionally, you will have access to a range of sporting
facilities and can join a number of clubs and societies. We aim to
provide a full university experience and not just a study program.

Within just a few weeks, JCU Singapore has become like a home to me. I spend a lot of time with my friends in-between classes in the library and student lounge. JCU also offers a variety of co-curricular activities like the Football club, Mandarin club and the Toastmasters club. I am happy to have chosen JCU Singapore for there is so much to learn and do here!

Santoshi Konchada | MBA | India
I am an IT graduate with over 4 years of international work experience. I never realized my passion towards numbers and management skills until I joined JCU. The well designed curriculum delivered by experienced faculty with mentoring support provides the right foundation to be a better entrepreneur or to join the corporate world confidently. Thanks JCU for bringing the best out of me.
